    Sort of. But polytechnics are not exactly the same as Universities.

    Yes, by law all polytechnics are required to be certified by NZQA. But I am not quite certain about their ownership now. I was quite sure that they were all privately-owned although regulated by the Government. Plus I know that SIT has a scheme of where domestic students dont have to pay the...

    I understand what you mean bro. This has become a pathetic situation in Sri Lanka. Part of this blame goes to the local education system itself, its incompetency despite its scarce capacity has made education a disaster.

    So just like you said, Sheffield which I just learned has pretty low entrance requirements, is in the top 20, and now the top 20 research universities. So if thats the quality of the top 20, isn't the state of the remaining obvious? Despite this how can you still claim that the British education...

    But if Sheffield, which is a University and not a (small) College, is in the top 20 as you say, I can imagine as to how the rest would be below that 20. And of course no two universities are technically identical.

    Quite true bro. Just curious, what are these things that you could to "do stupid things just to show off people that your in UK and studyn there" ??

    Thats exactly what I meant when I said that the British Education system is loosing quality, pretty soon it will be more like a foreign location for the Sri Lankan institutes like ANC or ACBT. I doubt the new Visa reforms would do any good to restore lost educational quality.

    You've got to see one of the Local O/L English papers to see what I'm saying. Its practically very basic and easy. Students going with only that knowledge in English are going to have a tough time with Academic writing, conversations and big time trouble with peers. I really can't picture how...

    • Ethos Diamond Jewellery Designs •

    Ethos in its definition means the cultural and moral elements unique to a particular group. Its more often used to identify something which distinguishes something above the rest. The word caught my eye too. Looks like a brand name, but would make sense even if it were to be used in the sense of...

    No. I dont think that they are Government-owned. There are no Government operated polytechnics. But I believe that they do have the student subsidy. Its pretty cheap for locals and Maoris to pursue higher education, just as 15% of what an international student would pay. So how is your...

    Hmm.. You do know how the local O/L English paper is right? I'm quite puzzled on how this University accepts it as enough. Looks like the British Education system is loosing its quality, as I long suspected.

    Ah in Invercargill Its not a University, but a polytechnic. They'll take in students passing out from O/L and above because they dont exactly offer degree programmes or higher. What are you expecting to follow at SIT?

    A 'C' in the local O/L English being considered as a sufficient value in language for a solely English-based tertiary course in a primarily English-speaking country? Do you know anyone who has got in solely on that merit? Which universities are these?

    The few of the worst accidents that I have ever seen in Sri Lanka are along the Kandy-Colombo road, and the majority of them were involving atleast one motorcycle. What a dumbass you are, I mean if you were trying to prove that a piece of Indian crap like that shit of a motorcycle could reach a...
