Hello everyone! I am ecstatic to welcome you to the LUMS family. My name is Malak Hasan Khan. I am a junior pursuing Management Sciences here at SDSB. LUMS is truly a cauldron of remarkable opportunities and exceptionally talented people. Sometimes, it is hard to understand where an individual stands in all of the bustles of LUMS life. I know it is both exciting and deeply unnerving to imagine being part of such a competitive institution. Everyone’s mind is full of questions. Well, don’t worry! We, PALss, will be here to guide you throughout and help you reach your maximum potential. Rest assured, the four years you spend at LUMS will be the most memorable years of your life.
A bit about me:
When I came to LUMS, I was oblivious to everything that LUMS had to offer. Part of my ignorance was that I came from an FSc background and hence had no idea about the courses taught at LUMS. But, the thought of creating my own path excited me more than choosing someone else’s path. It did not take long for me to find who I am at LUMS. Now, I am a Peer Advisor, an intern at a Fintech company and an active member of the LUMS Consultancy Group and LUMS Community Service Society.
My advice to all of you would be is to take everything slowly. Live in the moment. Be patient with the challenges you are facing. Be proactive and humble. Don’t try to be like everyone else. Be your own self. Embrace your strengths and work actively on your weaknesses. In due time, you will find who you are and what you are meant to be. I wish you good luck for the next four years that will completely transform your life!
