Pakistani girls and education

Saturday 15 August 2009


Pakistani girls are excelling in college education. According to most reports including from the Punjab Board, girls consistently outrank their male counterparts in the annual examinations. From the matriculation, through to F.A./F.Sc and all the way to Masters level, Pakistani girls are regulary outperforming male students in almost all realms of knowledge.

Accordin to one reader Asma, this may be due to the fact that girls are often more motivated to be independent in a patriarchal, male dominated society like Pakistan. This gives them added impetus to perform well in school and college in order to make better careers for themselves.
