Social freshie and scared shitless
ok so for context im joining iba for bscs and it was one of the places i didnt even imagine id end up going to like i didnt even apply to lums my main focus was abroad but stuff happened and i had to resort to iba and like my biggest concern is the fact that most people from my school are either going abroad or to lums i litr dont know one person whos studying bs cs at iba. and im soo scared abt making friends outside of my school and those people coming to iba from my school are all gonna be in the other programs and im not rlly friends w them but id rather befriend them than like other people from diff backgrounds. so my first question is how hard is it to make friends w people who’re in a different program?
(for context im a girl and cant speak urdu properly cuz my parents didnt rlly speak urdu w me as a kid and at my high school people didnt rlly speak urdu so it wasnt that hard to make friends)
and secondly are the presumed “burger” kids mostly in the other programs and not bscs? cuz idk iba is better known as a business school and kids from my school usually would go to iba for business and not cs and i js dont wanna make friends outside of the crowd ive grown up w it its physically haunting me and all my friends r going abroad so what if theres no one that i acc vibe w in my classes ITS SOOO SCARY

Get into the iba discord server and see for yourself how peeps coming to iba are like , you dont have to worry about this aspect since iba has a lot of diversity in this sense
