QUOTE(Dark Devon @ Nov 16 2013, 04:34 PM) Hihi, May I know anyone here did their UKT program under Brickfields Asia College before? My friend told me that if resit for paper then will only count in maximum 30% plus assignment (assume 15 marks) lead to 45% maximum? Wondering what's the overall 55% as entry requirement to Cardiff as well. Kindly advise. Thanks in advance  Yeap if resit, max is 30+ whatever your assignment marks is.

University of hertfordshire or University of Hull? Ranking wise Hull is slightly better, but name wise hertfordshire seems more well-known. I need some advice

QUOTE(Shanashi @ Jul 6 2014, 10:46 AM) Hull is boring during my year only 10 people went there from BAC. The ranking doesnt really matter as it changes every year. Hertfordshire is a party place and its near to London which is a big bonus. It has a very modern teaching facility and lively place. People are friendly if you are. Just make sure you stay in Dehavilland campus or you will die commuting in winter as the Uno bus is bloody hopeless after 6pm and when it snows the bus doesnt operate. I have walked from Dehav campus to Campus Lane in 5 inches of snow before and I can tell you its pretty messed up when you cant feel your face toes and fingers. If you are looking to score a first class you should go to Herts. Having said its not impossible in Hull but it is more difficult. If possible you should apply to Cardiff if your results are good. All the best. If you are applying to Herts you better book Dehav now as that place fills up the fastest. Hi Shanashi, may i know how do you think about herts in terms of teaching quality and also the support given to you in pursuing law subjcts?

QUOTE(Shanashi @ Jul 11 2014, 08:34 AM) Hi mate, Teaching quality is just like any UK institution which is you are NOT book fed. You are to read and prepare your work BEFORE going for classes. Research is all done on your own. Classes are not where you listen and absorb like how it is in Malaysia. It is for interacting and participating with the lecturer. The most frustrating part is wanting to see the lecturer as you would have to make a weeks appointment depending on your luck and their schedule. You can forget about asking them questions or seeing them before the exams like how we are used to in Malaysia. I had a friend told to literally get out of the office from the lecturer. I cant remember the lecturer's name as he wasn't my lecturer. Having said dont expect handouts. Ever. Support is fantastic their online system is very up to date and high tech. The office staff are very helpful and quick to get things sorted out for you. The most helpful lecturers are Dr Fang Mah who is a Chinese nationality who married a Malaysian man who is also working there. She is more inclined to help you out. Another is Dr Barbara Henry who is a fantastic over qualified lecturer from Ireland if I am not mistaken. Oh yea never ever be late for anything. It is highly frowned upon here as punctuality is very very important. Cheers Thanks alot, and one thing i am concern for Uni of Hersfordshire is the graduate prospect. One of the reason is because the amount of first class honour is higher compared to the other same range uni. Do the employers here take that into account? What's your view on that?
