If LUMS and other universities decide not to report on their ranking whose fault is it? The data is certainly not by googling. Its well reputed. We have a habit of turning down anything which is not as per our wishes!
NUST started its QA reporting more than 5 years ago and with consistent reporting, feedback, course evaluations, teacher evaluations and a lots of other reporting systems are in place.
Though i'm not the right person to comment on natural sciences ranking but i do know that NUST offers several degrees which have overlapping areas with many natural sciences fields. It has strong and established mathematics, modeling, virology & Immunology, Urban Planning & transportation, environmental sciences, material science programs. They have overlapping areas. Maybe this accounts for the ranking in this section.
If LUMS and GIKI are not in ranking the question should be directed to their QA offices instead of just dismissing the rankings altogether. For NUST QA can be reached at dqa@nust.edu.pk

the data and information submitted by the university officials to QS top universities play a vital role in ranking

Subject: Re: [pakgrid] Which university is at what ranking in the world: New world ranking of universitiesThese ranking stuff screwed up badly. I'm wondering how they do this ranking (I mean data collection), just google??
I'm not talking over raking, data is in question over which this raking is done.
is it not funny that LUMS is not listed at all, and NUST don't have any thing in natural science. m I the only one here who is missing some thing?

Apart from Pakistani universities example I also looked for Dutch universities which I know well, result is almost same
Which remind me scientific publication score, putting Pakistan even lower then Mongolia
