Question regarding English Language

My qualification (PGDM) does not appear in the Point Based Calculator though.

Please guide

Thanks

Visit Visa still valid

Hello All

I have a 6 month UK visit visa which is still valid until Oct'10. Can I go ahead and apply for a Tier 1 (General)? Or do I need to wait for the visit visa to expire?

Re: Naric Statement

I approached AICTE to get the equivalency letter and also gave Rs 5000 as application fees. I applied for this in Nov last year and still no reply. Thanks to our lame government offificals. (One of the reason why I am moving to UK) I followed up with them last week where they informed me that Board...
