But applicant from Pakitsan note, most of the Masters from Pakistani universities are not equal to Masters in the UK. So they would not be elegible if they are applying on this bases. They have to do Masters from the Uk or any other recognised university which NARIC awards as euqal to Masters in the UK.
That is not entirely true. Although I am not Pakistani and have never studied from Pakistani universities, I know of atleast 4 universities where Masters is equivalent to UK mastersdextar wrote:I think for Pakistan almost for every university you will get 30 points for Masters degree i.e. equal to Bachelors degree. So, in this case no body from Pakistan holding Pakistani Masters degree will be elligible. This will be a major major change.

T_mahmood wrote:My personal feelings are that the new changes would not be rolled back for long time, rather, I have distinct feelings that there are more harsh polices are to follow in coming years. To generate more revenue, they have already announced the increase in visa fees and other sorts of tests e.g. life in UK.
