Mind your language

By -
With constant changes to the Skilled migration, you can never be sure what's just around the corner.

But language has always been important - no doubts about that.

IELTS is the way to go.

There's an application form and calendar and instructions for folks in Pakistan on http://www.britishcouncil.org/pakistan-exams-ielts.htm

From now on, I really need to mind my language.

One night stands vs. long-term relationships

Unfortunately, not everyone has the luxury of time. Sometimes, time is spent planning and procrastinating as well, and then every hour is worth approximately an average of 40 times as much just before an examination. The 40 times calculation is obviously a result of my now-more-analytical mindset, after going through the physics of cost accounting examinations. You see, it took me an average of 6 to 8 hours for a single chapter at the beginning of my study schedule – this soon became an average of 6 to 8 chapters in a single hour by the end of it. And that’s just the theory part of it. Not practicing is a recipe for disaster – practice is usually the main ingredient of a successful study program, which is why there was a lot of time spent improvising during the examination. Maybe I should wait till mid-July when the results are out to blog about it, but I need to note some important lessons from the three nights and days of the exam - specifically, the CIMA Operational Level papers: E1...
