Have you considered applying to the top universities?  If you're going to spend the money going to UK, why not give the top universities a go?

Top as like Oxford, Cambridge or Imperial?? Yup will surely try it but i am afraid that it might be hard to enter? Or am i wrong?

Give it a go, however low the chance is, it's not going to be 0 laugh.gif 

You'll need a strong personal statement and something different to show for as well, e.g. work experience etc.

I'm actually from University of Leeds, but I study mechanical engineering so it's sort of hard for me to judge whether chemical engineering is good or not in Leeds.

Some things I do know:

1) Strictest attendance (Every class will require attendance, you'll get warning letters if you don't show up unless given valid reason) whereas mechanical engineering has none at all.

Ok so that's all I knew about the program so I asked some of my chemical engineering friends, and I'm quoting them;

1) Top outside London
2)Good lecturers (competent and know what they're talking about) and well planned programme
to train for real work
3) Good placement schemes
4) Materials lecturers are well established in industry and got a lot of written work also

I'm also the publicity director of MASSoc 2014/2015 so if you head towards

https://www.facebook.com/groups/743951978997328/?fref=ts

I can approve you, and you can ask anyone of the students currently studying chemical engineering on their thoughts about the overall course.

In terms of location, Leeds is a concentrated city, and city centre is only about 20 minutes walk from Uni. Taking a cab would be roughly 5 minutes and GBP3. Overall, living expenses are quiet cheap, I'm paying GBP75pppw without bills, with bills about GBP85-90 and living in 4 other guys in a 4 floor house.

Also, if you have any questions here, just shoot away!  biggrin.gif

Hey bro, thanks for the reply! I am actually applying for Masters study, is the attendance also very strict for masters student? laugh.gif Wow, GBP 100 per week on accomodation? Thats quite cheap seriously as compared to London. So what about the Malaysian student council there? ANyway, i also just requested to join the FB group smile.gif My name is Chris.

you can only use it for one year. that's the duration jpj will issue. then, you can just re-apply again after one year. (it should not happen but i did it and it worked)

Do we have to apply with JPJ Malaysia before flying to UK? Or i can use my Malaysia driving licence automatically in the UK ?

Ouch, I'm sorry, I just saw your post. A bit busy with uni stuffs right now. But sure, in the future I'd love to meet up with fellow Malaysians.
Do you hang out together in a group or is it just you?
I hope my post above helps.
By the way, just to make sure, do you mean you'll be studying in the UK from July 2016 to August 2017 or beyond?
Cause if you're studying for less than half a year, I believe you don't need a tier 4 student visa.

It is just me smile.gif Sometimes with my MSc mates together. u?? btw pm me ur UK number smile.gif
