PAKISTAN - NO OFFICIAL LSE PAKISTAN-SPECIFIC RESEARCH THRESHOLD FOUND: LSE's published graduate rule for non-UK degrees is at least 70% in final-year examinations or GPA at least 3.5 out of 4.0 (LSE Graduate Entry Requirements page), and research entry normally requires a UK taught master's with merit or a non-UK equivalent in a subject appropriate to the research; popular programmes often look for a first-class equivalent.
