While you should of course have to wait for the letter to give you in detail why you were rejected for each section. What you are saying is that the caseworker explained that your degree was not given UK recognition and hence no points for education, you however did no score any points for all the other sections including FOR UNDER 28. the reason for this is you have not been given any points for could be straightforward UNDER 28, therefore because of this the requirements to score points under Experience and Age shift quiet significantly. E.g You would need 4 years experience with one year at senior level for the Under 28 for everyone else you would need 10 years (5 at senior) (as noted by syedleo), to gain the 50 points you were claiming, while for income, you need the equivalent of £5,000 to score 25 points in under 28 category while for over 28 you need £7,500 which is signicantly more, infact if you were earning this amount and applying for under 28 this would earn you 35 points. So IMHO you have 2 Issues, 1 the degree is not recognised ( and from past post I think most people will agree that Bachelors degree is not taken to be equal to UK bachelors), and the 2nd important point is which age group did you apply for, over 28 or under 28, if under 28 what proof did you submit to support your age
