selection and college enrolment, students transitioning frcm Intermediate (12th grade)
or A-Levels to university, seeking assistance in university and program selection
aligned with their career aspirations.

on its comprehensive database specifically curated tor the Pakistani educational and
career landscape.
In addition to the chatbot, the platform offers a website that houses the chatbot and
