Many people prefer to continue their higher education in English-speaking countries. What are your views of studing abroad.

Since the competition to enter local university is immense, some students choose to study abroad to fulfil their educational qualifications.

I think it is essential to view things positively. Due to the lack of resources and to the growth of the population, the competition to enter a local university becomes higher annually causing many students be uneligible to follow a local degree. Among these students, there are ones who have missed their university entrance by fractions of marks. And also there are ones who will not be chosen even though they sit for the exam the next time. And if we consider psychologically, some are incapable of facing the competition all over again since it is stressfull. When considering the above situations and if the students can afford, in my opinion there is no harm in choosing to study abroad since it is the right of each individual to choose what they prefer in life.

In doing this, it is necessary to follow a degree which is world-wide or locally recognized because the intention is to be employed once after ending studies, being provided with a satisfying salary. To fulfil this, it is essencial to enroll themselves in a University worldwide recognized, which is usually in an 'English-speaking' country. Since we are obtaining knowledge on English language and since it is far more familiar than any other foreign language it is wise to choose a university in such a country.

In concluding the positive aspect, I'd like to state that if a student turns out to be a well qualified professional at the end of his/her higher education, the University being local/foreign or English speaking/non-English speaking from which he/she got the knowledge is out of question, because the service done to the world and the human race is just the same.

On the other hand if any student obtains his/her higher education in any other way other than the individual capability, such people can cause confusions and actions taken by them can be disastrous.

If one is chosen for a profession by testing the real capabilities, there would be no questions regarding the degree being local or foreign. Anyone with the strong determination and courage, who is ready to correct faults once made, should be given the opportunity to do so and to serve the world with their capabilities.
