Salam,

I want to study CS and I am a bit confused. I couldn't find anyone from UIT in this forum so I decided to start a new thread.

I know FAST, IBA etc are famous for BS CS but they are not an option. FAST is too far (2hr drive atleast) and IBA is a bit too expensive.
I would like to hear your opinion and experiences.. and also recommend me any university (in Karachi) which you think is good for CS.

If you can't afford private unis then ubit is the best 22-23k per semester. But beware, the depart sucks, think of it as you just made a deal to get a BS degree if you can study yourself and score good on the exams. That's it.

UIT's fees is not an issue. I visited UBIT few days ago and you are right, the campus sucks. That is why I was having second thoughts about it.

Where do you live? DHA Suffa can be a good choice if it's near, however if you are living in north karachi it's gonna be very far, you can apply for NUST (ISB one) if you can afford it as well. However like i said, if you are the type to self learn from the internet and books, UBIT's good for you. Because there isnt much strictness regarding attendance, so you just stay at home and study. However if you are the one who also cares about his Uni life this isn't the place for you. It's IBA/Nust. Dunno much about DHA suffa's Uni life.
[MENTION=132147]Fate[/MENTION] can tell you about any extracurricular activities.

There's not much to do on campus relative to other Unis, but the DSU is in Defence so you can just grab a friend and go out. We have events related to departments, MUNs, etc. sprinkled throughout the year.

I dont care much about uni life, sure I'd like to have good people around me but distraction-less and well-facilitated environment matters more.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Gradually transitioning from console gaming to PC as the games are not worth it. 6 hours of Hellblade 2 is just not worth the $50 price tag.
    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
