Studying in the UK (5.5) - International Students Don't Have Sufficient English Skills (BBC)

I have implied this several times in my blogs on studying in the UK, but this half a blog is to promote a very interesting BBC story on how a lecturer has come out to say that most international students do not have sufficient English language skills to go on an UK postgrad course. This is a rampant problem in the UK and probably one of the worst kept secrets among academic circles within the UK. I'm glad someone has spoken out and hope some action will be taken in this matter.

Also take some time to read the comments in the news article.

And parents, think twice before splashing out your hard earned money on your children's education. Don't make education yet another vanity.
