Chapters
The speaker introduces the topic of the Pakistani education system, noting that many graduates are not working in their fields, and emphasizes the importance of choosing a career correctly.
The speaker criticizes both the education and examination systems, mentioning news about children committing suicide due to family and societal pressure.
The speaker contrasts Islamic teachings about education with the current system, noting that private schools are run as a business and mafia, and children are kept in school from age 5, which limits their mental development.
The biggest issue is choosing a career, with pressure to select FSc, 9th/10th subjects, or Arts. Arts students are looked down upon, and high marks (95-96) are required for good universities, leaving many with 80-90% unable to get admission.
The speaker shares that despite having around 80% marks, they couldn't get into a good university and ended up in agricultural engineering, which has no benefit for their career.
The education system relies on cramming and outdated material, like teaching floppy disks in 9th and 10th grades, instead of practical skills like using a mouse.
The speaker advises that before going to university, one should decide if they want a job. If so, they should choose fields like IT, Law, or Doctor, as other degrees like BS English or BS Chemistry often lead to unemployment.
University semesters are often wasted with minimal teaching; teachers rush through the syllabus, and students gossip instead of learning. Many teachers themselves lack practical knowledge.
The speaker points out that MBA teachers work as lecturers instead of doing business, and economics graduates do jobs, highlighting a mindset disconnect.
Students memorize useless facts like the 14 points of Quaid-e-Azam, which have no real-life application, and study outdated history.
The speaker advises to sideline societal pressure and focus on personal goals, using a 30/70 rule: 30% on academics, 70% on self-development and practical skills.
Universities don't teach practical skills like how to deal with scams, how government institutions work, or how to get a driving license. These are the things that matter in real life.
The speaker shares that despite failing five subjects in university, they are now earning better than classmates by focusing on skills and YouTube.
University marks have no correlation with earning potential. Backbenchers can succeed if they struggle to achieve their goals.
The speaker urges viewers to follow their own interests, not compare with friends, and to make decisions that improve their life, even if they make mistakes.
The video concludes that the Pakistani education system is flawed, but individuals can overcome it by focusing on practical skills and personal goals rather than just academic marks.

[00:01] Pakistani education system. If you want to go to university, you should university entails. And if you want to go, which program should you choose so you can learn something for real? I'm
[00:13] n't worth it because I'm here making videos. You'll n't working in their own fields, but are working in all other fields. This is because this is you should watch this video so you can understand how to choose a career correctly.
[00:27] expose the Pakistani education system. There are system, both of which are absolutely terrible. Let's talk about education. First of all, you must have heard a lot of news about children committing suicide.
[00:41] First, they face family pressure, and some face societal pressure because their children cannot tolerate the pressure, you know what Islam has said first of all that if a child is 7 years old, you will make Namaz
[00:54] obligatory on him or you should get him religious education. Now the same thing applies here for our other getting worldly education, but it is not like that here. Private schools which are a business, it is not just education, it is a complete business and mafia. What does this education system do that
[01:08] it does not keep children above 5 years of age in school, so send a child of 5 years, what happens because of this is that the mind of the children remains small. also come that only a 4 year old child will go to universities or sorry,
[01:22] these people will earn more money, so here let first blow from this, that their children are not able to expand their minds, then what happens The biggest issue here is choosing a career
[01:34] what to choose for FSc. What to choose for 9th or 10th, whether to choose go to Arts. The person who goes to Arts is looked at by everyone as if they have looked at by everyone as if they have
[01:47] looked at with great respect. Similarly, consider many things. Now here, including me, I am telling you the truth. The same thing happened to me. My marks were around 80. Now, the
[02:01] competition here has become so high that the person who is at 80 or even at 90 will not get admission in any good university. Because you already need to score 95 or 96 to go to a good university. So what did we do? I also
[02:14] engineering from there, but that engineering has no benefit for my caste. am an agricultural engineer and my field is related to tax. Now if we talk about interest, why was I not able to do it because brother, admission is not
[02:28] private universities and Mashaallah, you know how this is the thing that people are suffering the most in Pakistan because of this. Now even if you somehow get into the university, the first thing that will come upon you is that the same pressure will
[02:41] you have to cram, you have to study old things. If I talk about ninth and tenth, then they are Now I mean, what is the education in Pakistan? The
[02:53] teaching on floppy disks in ninth and tenth grades, which is over now. You should teach there how the mouse works, you have to understand yourself what you have to do, 12th, after that when you want to go for your career, then the first
[03:07] thing you have to see is what job you want to do in the future, if you don't want to do a job, if you don't have the then you don't need to go to university, but if you say that I want to do a job, then you have to see that friend, in which field I have some experience, what I am
[03:21] like it can be IT or if you want to do law or you want to can take advantage in the future, other than the university, all the BS English, BS Chemistry, all these people are sitting at home,
[03:34] very high, it is high because we people do not studying all these things, now that I have done engineering, I did not truth is that in Pakistan, there is no benefit of it to
[03:47] understand here is that when you want to go to university, then you have to study these three programs which I told you earlier, IT, Law or Doctor. Otherwise, which I told you earlier, IT, Law or Doctor. Otherwise,
[04:00] But the thing is that you will get a job in some of them later, otherwise what will happen, assignments, there will be practical work and all that. means, the entire semester is what the teachers do. You know, the
[04:14] entire semester here, they will let you enjoy, you can play and jump. Okay, whole day the boys and girls are gossiping and teachers will come in a hurry and give you notes. Quickly cover this, cover the syllabus.
[04:27] Teachers here also have a lot of responsibility, which some teachers it aside. Now, you know, many teachers are struggling. Many teachers are just trying to save their lives. I've also
[04:40] know what they're teaching within their subject. I mean, so many of them are safari teaching is correct or not. But because they're teachers, you have to respect them. That's why you're
[04:53] n't be of any use to you. Similarly, you might have seen a very famous teaching someone who has never done any business himself. I've often looking for a job. It is written 'looking for a job' and ' MBA' is also written along with it. Brother, you have
[05:07] studied business, so who told you to do a job? It is because their Well, the teachers have done MBA and they themselves are working as lecturers there. I mean, even they do not understand that, friend, I have done MBA, so I should do business. I
[05:20] can do business. People are doing jobs after studying economics properly. So, I have not understood this thing, this mindset till date. Now you know our memories are filled, dates are memorized. Okay, we make us memorize the
[05:32] 14 Nikas of Quaid Azam. Maybe they will not be useful in real life. There are many such things, study such old history. You have come to this forum
[05:45] by mistake. So what you have to do is grab these things, read whatever it is, but always remember that you have to sideline all these things. Your main focus should be on
[06:00] take it forward in your life. That is, if there is pressure on you to go to university, or whatever it is, just keep a focus on 30 or 70 in your life. What should happen should be your own goals. You should set your life
[06:12] I have to take a VN in life, and if this is my weight, or if I have such a weight, then I will stay in that forward on that. Now, what happens is that you have seen that many people get stuck seen such people myself. If you tell them that today we are not learning such and such things,
[06:27] Right now we have such and such homework to do, we also have to do such and such work. That means their people All around them, they are 100% busy with university, school, and college work. They are Then they are demanding that these universities should give them jobs. Now
[06:41] correct your mind and focus on your goals. You universities and our institutions will not teach you things like how the CBI works, how the FIA works. If someone scams you, how do you react?
[06:55] scammed on social media, how do you react? How do you behave with whom? In all the Pakistani institutions like Nadra or whatever, driving license? These are the things that are useful in real life. The
[07:10] These are the things that are useful in real life. The not get to study anything like that in school. You will get to read something that will I used to think that I am studying physics, in this they are
[07:23] altitude should be here, this will be cut from here, those things used to be in math, now I don't even remember what those things were, okay, now if I write this an intelligent person, if I put a minus there myself, then I am a
[07:37] side, now I was also bullied like this in universities, this is bullied like this in universities, this is youtube0, so
[07:51] can say that I am earning much better than all my classmates in my university, MashaAllah, teachers also help me, they also support me, many who There are also those
[08:03] but the thing is that now it is up to you that when you are working, you have to learn skills so that you can progress in real life. If someone tells you that you did not get good marks in your studies, or someone is saying that you should do this, do that, do this,
[08:16] you are getting less than 90, then let me give you an example, I had 75 university, I failed five despite that, Alhamdulillah, I have completed the university. Despite that, Alhamdulillah,
[08:32] university has nothing to do with how much you will be able to earn. Or you are a backbencher, you sit at the back, then it probably has to do with how much you will earn. So, there is nothing like that if If you struggle to achieve your goals,
[08:46] Insha Allah. So, if you understood this video and learned something from it, then you me tell you again that brother, whatever your interests are, you have to n't look at whether my friend is going this way, so should I go there too,
[09:01] or if he is doing this, so should I do this too. You will go through everything and you will feel that I did a lot of things wrong, then you should realize it, you should be happy that I made a good decision and I will make good
[09:15] decisions so that whatever is there, it can improve your life. There is you can definitely go to university and you Brother, then why did you study at the university? Let me tell you that
[09:29] friend, I am the same person who had family pressure and society studied at the university, but Alhamdulillah, despite studying, I I gave more importance to my work, due to which, Alhamdulillah, today I
[09:42] thank you so much Allah [Music]
