Ans: Well the 1st reason of study in U.K is that I have only 15 months leave with pay from my
company to complete my postgraduation in project management for my promotion and U.K
universities are awarding 12 months postgraduation degree. 2ndly U.K is perfect according to
my budget as I searched other countries for this degree e.g Canada, U.S.A and Germany if I talk
about Germany there is a language barrier as language is 1st and important tool of
communication and in U.S.A and Canada the degree tenure is more than one year and I have to
spend greater amount for living and university fee. More reasons are that U.K is very popular
for overseas students and U.k universities are also providing quality of education up to mark
and being a Pakistani we assume U.K as our second home because U.K people are very hospitile
and have much love for Pakistani people.
