After I have explained to you what I meant by ranking in their course, you are still twisting my words. Some of you just like arguing unnecessary.


If someone is searching for schools won't they check for schools that offer their courses? by the way schools state if their course is accredited or not on their website?

Checking ranking helps one to choose the right school that fits into their choice.

Ranking isn't about competition between schools or give one the best result, you will still have to work to get where you want to be after school.


This is why I dont like commenting on this forum. Everyone wants to act smart like its some competition.

Phatkings:


Accreditation is key no doubt
But to some extent ranking is also a major player

omopapa:
Easy lion, I can’t see any arguments here and no competition either.

I already mentioned the accrediting bodies and even mentioned that it wasn’t to attack you.

No hard feelings, it’s all love from here ✌️

My intended course is a one year course.

After reading Chukwudi's post and Franklyn4"advise, it got me wondering. I also read somewhere on this thread where someone, called remember exactly who, advised against going for a two years program that it is a waste of time and money if the course can be done in one year.

I have my eyes on the Post Study Visa, please is going for a one year course a wise decision?

Phenmeson:


Was also introduced to Teesside University by an agent but prefer my siblings coming to London.
My past experience, came here on 2yrs visa when Post study wasn't available. Still remain here by grace of God and 2yrs visa duration. London is expensive but you can easily sew Yur coat � according to the materials you have and not size. My work permit /national insurance number was done the same week I got to UK by my Uncle. Was frustrated to the fact that I was applying to Car wash/ Pakistan stores for job. Got a job 3months after arrival, but my colleagues had their's 6months after. If you don't want to rely for financial support from 9ja or anyone, I advise you to study in London or any location you can easily get a job. Choice is yours Bro and wishing you the best.

Those two are not the same and can not be done in a day. Maybe there is something you are not telling us

justwise:


Why did you not apply directly through the university website FREE?

Phenmeson:


I said, I applied for my national insurance number same week I got to uk. Any hidden thing on that?

Access2017:




I did, but they kept referring me to apply through UCAS

justwise:


You said work permit/national insurance number

SegunWamiri:


He might not be able to. It depends on the program and school he is attempting to send his application to.

@Access2017
Be sure that your program of interest has ONLY the UCAS option.

What program and school is it though?

LaaJiblik:






Access2017 May be applying for UG degree hence the UCAS, in which case, there is a payment. I think I’m right, or maybe I’m not?

God will see your determination to survive and make you succeed bro. He'll lift you high and open a lot of doors for you.
I was touched by the part where you said you'll sell your properties. May He replenish you abundantly.

Teesside University recently gave an unconditional offer for MSc in Artificial Intelligence starting this September.

I applied for the 2 years option with advanced practice but the admission letter says it's a 1 year program.

I can study this for one year o, also, the cost isn't a problem. But... Isn't 2 years better?

I spoke with two friends of mine, one who is presently studying Data Science and the other Computer Science, both in one of the top schools there in the UK. I was asking them how they were coping. Their answers shocked me to the marrow! They are on PTDF scholarship, first class graduates from a federal University here in the East. Very smart guys! Believe me... But they complained bitterly.. Saying that the whole 5 years we spent in the University here in Nigeria Studying Elect/Elect was a complete waste of time.

They said they didn't learn a single thing from Nigerian Uni. They are now competing with Asians, Americans, natives, etc... Who already are masters of programming. People who started writing code at the age of 9. They have 24/7 electricity and Internet, there is nothing holding them back and that they are too young and are doing masters with them.

They both warned me that I ask my University to give me the 2 years with advanced practice practice option. In her own words, "Things happen so fast here.. Before you start getting a feel of the country and what is happening around you, one semester has passed. Before you catch yourself and know what is happening, another semester has passed and soon, your one year Masters will be over"


They showed great pity when I told them that I intend working to sustain myself. And they told me that when I come, I'd see for myself.

"Artificial Intelligence is still a young filled and most jobs available in this area, right now, are research jobs. By the time you start attending lectures, you'd find out that there are so many things you do not know and from the way they teach one has to understand completely. Reading and copy and paste won't help you here. So you will find yourself going far back to read up things you should have known before coming here. Otherwise you'd sound like olodo amongst your peers! Time is so precious here, considering the fact that you need to study the so many things you do not know, you may not have the time to work" one of them bloated out.

They have asked me to spend hours daily to study my courses before hand using the time I have now till September. They told me of how far behind their computer typing skills were and how greatly they have improved so far.

In general, I started thinking about myself... Am I prepared for all that?

In the end... I need to keep my programming top notch. And I have just started learning python.

I even started considering staying back this year just to do the intensive work I need to do in order to be able to get along but they told me that, if I'm able to invest at least 8 hours daily, from now till September, I'll be able to cope. The sooner I leave, the better other wise, the 10 naira they are using to sponsor me will turn to 6 naira by next year due to devaluation.

Have you a similar experience? Please, I'd love to hear.

Applied biomedical science comes with 1 year placement while advanced biomedical science is just a fancy name for MSc biomedical Sciences I believe
