actually in iran its visa vers !!!! girls are taking all the seats in universitys !!!!
in my own classroom there are 110 students 70 of em are girls!!!!
none of whom are married !!!!

iran is different, one of reason why they have lowest population growth in the region.
in pakistan bachelars i mean MBBs/MD girls are 60% with exception of KPK and baluchistan but they dont follow post graduate usually
