Student review [#11029] for Psychology
at Government College University, Lahore - GCU

My opinion about GCU are quite complex. On the one hand you are enamored by the gothic lady that stands proud and beautiful in the middle of one of Pakistan’s most vibrant cities. It is filled with some exceptional teachers and resources that aid in the development of not only one’s opinion about life but the political strife of our country. It is a completely multicultural institute where you don’t do tokens of any ethnicity/religion/caste/creed but see the active members of each of these co-existing. However, where all these points do exist on the other hand GCU runs into many logistical problems. The admin sometimes doesn’t care or simply deems it unimportant to solve real strife of the students. On some instances the teachers become subpar. And some even seem even well versed or well qualified. That is not to say no good teachers exist at all. Merely, that certain departments especially the English Literary department, Sciences and Business have a much stronger teaching faculty than others. Which makes you wonder why such a wide divide exists in the first place.
Yet I’d still recommend GCU to many aspiring poets, writers and political scientists because in these sections the halls of GCU flourish and allow for such creative and individual growth that one truly marvels at the growth experienced after the fact of going through a degree at GCU.
I hope mt words are helpful to others. And that they recognize that GC although majestic in the way it is perhaps isn’t as perfect as one assumes. And certainly not as bad as others might have you believe. It is a mixed bag of inconsistencies that quite like life you’ll enjoy nonetheless.
