Yah you are right and i am 100% sure this policy should be rolled back in couple of months after they put that in place, they cannot miss that revenue generating machine. None of the University in Pakistan apparently qualifies for Masters equal to UK masters, virtually making impossible for Pakistan...

Re: Master's Degree is not equivalent to UK masters :(

Literaly speaking they are out of their MIND, don't know what they are thinking?? yes apparently this is true, but due to poor education system and other educational flaws in Pakistan, have made this situation.

Hi, I was thinking of doing master's as Ti...
