All Pakistani Students who apply for Jobs or admission to a university must have a good awareness of NTS. The word NTS that you heard a lot actually means National Testing Service. Just as its name manifests, it is a proper testing system and, as a matter of fact, Pakistan’s most renowned one. They conduct appropriate exams of students to test their eligibility for certain positions like a vacant job post or a seat in a university. If you ever took the NTS exam then you must know that their testing system is not a piece of cake as students have to work very hard and prepare as much as possible just to be able to pass it.
History of NTS:
While many institutes and scholars are very grateful for this organization, a great number of students hate the establishment of NTS because of their tough testing system. As much as you may like or dislike it, NTS came into being in July 2002. It was established at a time when a number of departments and institutes felt a need for such a system that would filter the number of applicants based on their abilities. This way it was less effort for them and they would also get the best of eligible candidates. So, as its requirement was demanded in the Information Technology Policy and National Education Policy of the Government of Pakistan, they finalized the decision to put this idea into practice and thus we got our respected (or hated in some cases) National Testing Service.
