Sir: Yet another controversy has erupted regarding the clash between the A-Levels and FSc higher certificate systems, this time regarding admissions into the public medical colleges system. Already, there has been a lot of bitterness, disappointment and anger that has emerged. The education authorities, instead of sticking their head into the sand, should confront these challenges; bring together all the stakeholders, including students’ representatives; and work out a solution that is not only fair to all students, but also settles these disputes once and for all through transparent mechanisms.TAHIRA MALIKLahore
