Oh and by the way, my parents were the ones who told me don’t bother spending the time & effort upgrading to PhD: “It will make a girl less marriageable!” And delay the appearance of grandchildren even further lol.

It probably depends on the course. I expect these should be detailed on the university's website for each course?

Hi slmkhoo,


Thanks for your reply! Have taken a look at the website but they did not mention anything about admission test so wondering if there is any test.

You can search the course using the following link:

All the best.

Do UK boarding schools strictly implement their lights out policy? Many schools state that lights out is at 10pm even for the senior boys/girls. Would they off the wifi as well I wonder…


So UK students really sleep so early until many of our nocturnal teens here?

Is there any way of mitigating the fluctuating exchange rate when funding a child’s overseas education? Will having foreign fixed deposit account be useful?


Thanks

Since not 100% sure abt movement of the exchange rate…maybe buy and keep whenever feel the rate is not bad? Some foreign currency FD may have higher interest rate as I think it also comes with some volatility in exch rate. But if foresee to use it…I think it is not bad to do that.
