There have been plenty of illustrious Pakistanis from that school, such as Benazir, Nazia Hasan, Dr. Atta ur Rehman, Dr. Pervaiz Hoodbhoy, Maleeha Lodhi etc etc



As well as Asif Ali Zardari and his son Bilawal Bhutto

Best school in paksitan. All of my friends who moves to Aitchison from KGS said that it doesn't compare. The all boys aspect of it doesn't help either. It's far from perfect though. Some of the teachers could've been better

tbh atleast in america the aitchison community does better (or atleast is more organized and in high places)

im guessing best would be KAS or sth.

 

[CricketCartoons]

These schools are meant to maintain hereditary meritocracy, where rich people send their kids so that they mingle with kids of other rich people and maintain their old boys network.

Academically top 3 are KGS,Lyceum and Nixor.KGS is also generally good in sports but I don’t know much else about it apart from the fact it’s stereotyped as a ‘burger school’.I had friends who moved there in class 7 but I didn’t much contact with them.KAS is also a top school,though it has less students.Only the elite class studies there.
