I am a 17-year-old girl living in Karachi. We have only one breadwinner in our family, we live in a rented house, and our monthly income is barely enough to stretch across our basic expenses—we are essentially below the middle class. Since I am an only daughter, my parents want to see me happy, and honestly, what parent wouldn’t want that for their child? If I pressure them, they will somehow manage to send me to university. However, I am not really fond of the idea of university; I want to work from home, and to me, a university degree does not feel worth the financial strain. Still, I know most traditional jobs require a degree. I am a highly dedicated person and want to learn data analysis, graphic design, and video editing. I have the time right now, and my second year of intermediate is about to start. Please give me some suggestions and advice. I know my potential—I am a fast learner, and I know I can do this but question is..am I on the right track? I will be successful? I think I am being dumb!

My Intermediate exams have just finished, and this is my first time appearing for them. I've heard from many people that marks are deducted a lot in Intermediate exams. Is that really true?

My literature subjects went well, while the rest were average. I also heard that this year there might be hand-checking because they are unable to manage the OMR system properly. Is there any truth to this news?
