我也这么觉得9 r1 h' I' a  k; V, R
但如果雅思拿不到4个7 就要读! e* s& `6 M" y0 d: f
所以为了雅思4个7 努力

靠延长在校时间来满足移民要求是一个妥协的方法，尽量不走这条路，靠自己的能够去争取自己应得的。

不怎么喜欢monash，master雅斯有些科目要求高的很过分，总分7不说，每项不低于6.5。这不是变相给语言学校创收么？

学校开设PROFESSIONAL YEAR还是很谨慎的，不知道能够有多少485签证持有人回去读这个课程，寻找工作就真的难的非要逼迫申请人去完成这个1年的培训？

这么说的话，工程类的professional year现在还没有？

相比于读完BACHELOR再读一年MASTER来挣10分,个人感觉还是PYEAR比较有实际意义,毕竟里面有220 hours of practical ICT workplace experience

顶楼上的说法,如果想通过读一个本科加一个硕士学位的人来说还不如直接本科毕业了就去PYEAR.
* P7 N9 n5 l: j: b$ @$ m2 C: J但是对于我们这些只到澳洲来读master的人来说情况就不一样了,能考4个7尽量考吧,虽然这里考4个7真的很困难

工程已经是4年的..再加一年不就暴了...
