Abstract
The present study is aimed at exploring errors in the format of application among 40 Pakistani EFL (male) learners who are enrolled in the Science group intermediate part two at Government Science College Quetta. Errors in the format of application are analyzed keeping in view the prevailing conventional format of blocked application. The researcher selected the desired population through simple random sampling with the intention to find generalizable results. However, to analyze the data, a sequential mixed method research was employed in which quantitative phase was followed by qualitative phase. The findings of the study suggested that participants’ knowledge regarding the format of application in English was far from satisfactory because almost all parts of their applications reflected rather basic errors. On the bases of these findings, this paper suggests college teachers to equip their students with the knowledge of how to write a welldesigned application. Hence, the findings of the present study are likely to educate the learners of any level regarding the format of an application.
