Knowledge is power. We have often heard of that statement. Well it is very true. The more you attain some certain type of education, the more you acquire valuable knowledge on that particular field you are interested in. Education is very important as it may determine ones career in the future, but what most people are not aware of these days is whether they will obtain the best quality of education to enhance their knowledge because of the low mark results they would have attained whether it be O’ level or A’ level.
I had
always dreamt of going to university and studying towards a Law degree. However
at some point that dream was shuttered due to my low grade A’ level results. I
applied at some universities individually which strained and stressed me during
my gap year and thought to myself that this was the end of my career.
Unknowingly, there was a better way to apply and actually be enrolled for a
program in one of the universities I wanted to study at. I did my research and
stumbled upon AfriEdge Educational Consultancy, a university recruitment agency
in Harare that helps anyone in need of studying abroad.
Studying
abroad is an option which an individual may consider so as to attain an
undergraduate program which cannot be obtained in his/her country because of
low grade marks, for example an Associate Degree in Automotive Maintenance
Technology. Some local universities would require a higher grade mark or Grade
Point Average (GPA) for such particular programs. A number of universities
abroad offer students a program path that has to be completed in order to
qualify for the desired degree program. This actually gives the student exceptional
skills and great knowledge.
Not
everyone is privileged to attain high grade results, maybe because the learning
conditions were not conducive or probably he/she was disturbed by family
matters, tuition and examination fee issues during their high school. Howbeit I
am not implying that one should have an excuse to failing. What is important is
what one does after failing. It is vital that a person learns from his/her
mistakes. Never giving up is a must and it is important to do the best one can
to move forward.
In order
to study abroad, firstly, one requires the appropriate information on the type
of program(s) to study, the university, country and its cultures, how to obtain
the visas and study permits. A large amount of universities abroad now offer
most programs in English language or a student may be required to learn the
local language during their first year. It is advisable to have that
information before you even apply for a university program.
