Intermediate is the level where you have to make important decisions
Well, where you belong to, specifies the college you would join. If you belong to Punjab, or KPK, you would join the intermediate college in Punjab and KPK, and if you belong to Balochistan or Sindh, then you would join the college in your province, be it Balochistan or Sindh. Anyhow, taking admission is one thing, the bigger question is what you want to study, and either you want to pursue engineering or medicine. These are the two major fields, most of the candidates like to take, the pre-engineering will take you to engineering field and pre-medical would lead your path towards medicine.
How you have imagined your life? You want to be a doctor or an engineer
All the responsibility comes on your shoulders. You have to decide, what you enjoy studying more and how you imagined your future as. If you enjoy mathematics, and good with technical stuff, then you can opt for engineering, and if you do not have a technical mindset, and you enjoy studying about nature, human body and diseases then you can opt for medicine. You reached the intermediate level, this is the place which will decide your future. You can take admission in a good pre engineering college in Pakistan or a good pre-medical college. There are students who would want to move out and do their intermediate from foreign, then they might look for a good international pre medical college or engineering college, and pursue their studies outside.Apart from disciplines in sciences, some students want to pursue humanities
