just AS-Level haha

was studyin at school dere too

yes, nz has the strange distinction of accepting student from ncea level 2 directly into non-critical courses in uni.......and for schools offering the cie a-levels, the equivalent is as results........

and where did u do yr degree?

hye.where did u find out about studying in NZ? do they have Education Exhibition here in m'sia?
i'm really interested and is there any place or agents in the web where i can start?
thanx

ya just search the web la emigrating to nz

I would think the first thing is to find out what qualifications you have, find a course that you want, then look at universities, NOT migration!

Don't run before you can crawl. Last time I checked it was the Studying in New Zealand thread, not the Migrating to New Zealand thread.

I'm not in favour of going with agents. Do your own research, decide and apply by yourself. It's not hard to find out stuff these days with the internet.

For a start try this http://www.studyingnewzealand.com/

thanx guys!
is there any where i can find the ranking of NZ's unis?

I don't believe in rankings, as they are irrelevant in the context of undergraduates. But a simple search would reveal a discussion in this thread.

My advice: go to any NZ university that accepts you. Other factors such as cost of living, cost of fees, accessibility etc are more important than perceived standing.

Agree with Haya, especially in the NZ context.

I can tell u roughly off my head

aucks is around 60

canterbury is around 130

otago is 150

those are the ones in the Top 200 by Times Higher Education

Most banks have special international student accounts. Pretty much similar terms in the end. But ASB generally has the best interest rates.

its like a money making trap.

Yes, but the segregation is partially due to discriminatory policies. When you have a group of people who literary don't speak each others language, how do you expect them to communicate? When they have different outlooks, it is hard to find common ground of understanding.

So why don't they speak each others language? Because each segment thinks its language is the best, and only that language should be used, with no regard for the changing reality of the globalised age. Why do they have different outlook's? Because there is a segment of society with their shrill cries of "Its our culture!" everytime a change for the better is initiated.

Hey there. I kind of need help. I was wondering what things should I declare before going to New Zealand? Is it necessary to declare all electrical goods such as camera, handphone, batteries and also the normal shoes I wear (not hiking ones) and also liquids (shampoo/shower creme/toothpaste/etc) ?

Please reply asap.

Thanks so much.

dont have to declare electical goods.
as for footwear, only those like hiking or football boots type, ensure there is no mud or soil.
keep all liquids in heavy luggage and u shud be fine.
all foodstuff are to be declared

Hey,

I desperately need some help! I'm thinking of doing an undergraduate exchange with University of Auckland but encountered some problems. I heard the normal course load there is 60 points per semester, but is there any maximum points I can take per semester? Also, if I will be going over there for semester 2 can I also register for subjects available in 4th quarter? Because I noticed business administrative courses are only available in quarters not semesters, why? Can I as an undergraduate do Business Administrative courses? Are they graduate program courses?

And does anyone have any idea about the law-commercial courses offered in University of Auckland? Is there any criteria to be able to take those courses when I'm on exchange? Because there are a number of courses I saw which stated that PGCLL and MLS students please contact the Postgraduate Student Adviser at Law School for approval, what is PGCLL and MLS? Also, there's this one course called Commercial Arbitration & Dispute Resolution that has class dates from 5th to 7th, 10th to 11th Aug 2009 only and the stated meeting days are mon to fri 9am to 430pm. Is this course a project or are there classes? How can anyone take this course since it'll definitely clash with your other subjects?

I need to state my decision whether I would like to do an exchange over at University of Auckland by today so anyone have any advice please please please reply. I'll greatly appreciate your help! Thanks.
