QUOTE(Vv.SoViEt.vV @ Jun 16 2006, 01:23 AM) Based on the paper alone, a 3rd Class is equal to nothingness. Are you graduated yet ? 3rd class is an Honours Degree. The lowest rank is Pass Degree which has no Honours. Anyway I seldom come across local graduates with 3rd class or pass degree, most of them are at least 2nd class lower. This is different when I was in UK since there are quite numbers of 3rd class degree holders. Looking to this scenario i think there is a difference in standard and quality of the degree awarded. Somehow our education system is getting more lenient and acquiring many A1s in SPM is like an absurd competition. |

Am I sound too harsh? While posting in the serious sub-forums do I have to get this piece of bullcrap so in end of the day everyone knows you are an asscracka ? My friend received a pass degree in BEng from Sheffield University, UK. He spent 3 years studying there. Oh yeah, he got 9A1 in SPM back in 1999. Did he received piece of shite compared to you ?

When our results subjected to external moderation (moderators from UK), our results always get downgraded!! O_O; Sigh FYI I graduated from Staffordshire University, UK. Yeah, I spent some years in Stafford town knowing all the people in the Stafford Guildhall too. Although this uni. is not listed under Top 15 university in the UK but it has same standard of degree awarding like other uni. We also have external examiners from other universities. I don't know about APIIT or UCTI though, but from your reply the local standards are quite low  This post has been edited by igor_is300: Jun 17 2006, 02:39 PM |

QUOTE(havenzhiv @ Jun 17 2006, 03:03 PM) For your (or everyone else for that matter) information, i do agree that local universities do have a low standard, heck, i graduated from one of the local universites, but the standards from the university does not hold on to me. I've set my own standards and targets. Am i a low quality graduate?As far as i am concern, what i am working as now, i think i am not. Can i afford to study oversea?I can't but my parents can and they would if i wanted. Bottom line is, doesnt matter where you study, uni creds, grades is just an assisting paper (ok, so it helps, quite alot) but what counts is your ability to convey the message that you are the one. To the topic, i partially agree that that 3rd class = no value BUT depends on what course. IT, Engineering and like wise, not necessary but when it comes to detail subjects like geology, reseach work intense subjects/positions which require precise detailing and what not, it is very important what class you got. cheers Actually when it comes to Research & Development (R&D) position , the employer will prefer 1st class academic results. We all know that, I think we should LOL. It doesn't mean when you got 3rd class or pass degree you cannot work right ? The bottomline is try to find a job that suit yourself eg: academic results, personality and etc. Not all jobs require 1st class degree holder  |

QUOTE(Vv.SoViEt.vV @ Jun 17 2006, 04:19 PM) You get the piece of bullcrap because you posted crap in the first place. LOL! Why dont you share this early in the post, so I cant make an ass out of you. The standard of UK Staffordshire's graduate. Sigh.. and please we are here generally refering to 3rd Class from local university. I repeat what I've posted earlier. Read "based on the paper alone". I didnt refer graduates with 3rd Class are worth nothing. Oh please, I beg you dont mention you are from Staffordshire University. Eww..  I am sharing my experience as a general comparison. On paper qualification, we still have lower rank than 3rd class which is a pass degree without honours. I am also comparing the scenario of the standards of the degree awarding here and overseas since I've observed there are quite a numbers of pass and 3rd class overseas graduates compared to here. Your harsh reply concluded who you are and the level of your intelligence. Short and vague sentence can be misleading. This isn't kopitiam where you rant or whine your unfulfilled wishes. edited To all: Sorry for the disturbance, I am leaving as I have better things to do rather than reading some emo posts here.

Oh people, If third class doesn't have its value so where does general degree stand ? If you were following UK education forum, there are people who are dissappointed with their 2nd class lower degree to some even wanted to commit suicide.
