I think we don't need to do a quiz about we have to study in the UK or the USA. Sometimes you think that you want to study in the USA or the UK.Just do what you like.Not depend on the quiz.It doesn't help you when you're like the U.K and the quiz said that the USA may be the best for you to study.But that's my opinion.But if i have a choice to study,i'll choose the U.K.I love this place.

Hey guys this may be a good quiz for the persons who are totally black in their minds that where to go. But one thing is sure that we all have some kind of priorities set already in our mind. I am currently studying in Australia but i lived in United Kingdom for 3years and i finished my Advanced Diploma In Business Administration in London. I love that place the reasons are:
An exciting opportunity to meet the people from all around the world.
Their education is recognized worldwide.
A great chance to see the new places so many in England, Scotland,Wales and Northern Ireland without having the visa.
Also an opportunity to explore the Europe as well with Schenengen Visa Which is quiet easy to get.
The last but not the least is quiet easy to get a job as a student while studying and also easy to get a job after the studies.
So we should all think about United Kingdom as our destination.
Thanks and good luck to every one.

I think according to me USA is better opportunity especially for engineers and sciences after new american law has came in.. so lots of extra and field job in US makes it better deal then UK. Above all study in US looks more practical, and that's its plus point. While UK and India has same education pattern.. Good job studylink!

Hey what's up all? Am studying in Africa presently, but if i intend persueing my graduate studies i will,opt for US. It is a free land, and is cheaper relative to the UK where the fees would my tripled what is equivalent in the US. All of us should move to the US instead of going to the UK.Staying in the US is fun compared to UK (v just so serious and strict.

I am confused... Where to go I have heard that USA study is easier dn UK. But the problem is I want to be closer to my relatives.... that's why either USA or UK. I'd say I'd like to go there, where I can make more money with lower expense.
