As per my knowledge no body bothers about Intermediate, if you are an ACCA affiliate or member. The issue come where the for visa processing purposes their is the requirement of bachelor and in government departments.For visa proposes OBU BSC can work but not sure.

The HEC will not issue an equivalence certificate for the OBU BSc certificate without a matric and inter certificate or their foreign equivalence e.g., O (at least 8 passes) and A (at least 3 passes) Levels certificates. Which in my opinion is quite stupid, as their job is to check of a degree’s equivalence on a degree to degree level… not the candidate’s WHOLE ACADEMIC background. If a candidate’s foreign bachelors degree is equivalent to a local bachelors degree then that’s all that should matter, and an equivalence should be issued to that effect.
But I don’t have any Pakistani credentials nor have I ever applied for HEC equivalence… this is mostly what I’ve heard… so, I might be wrong.
