Dont try to go tangent on that one. The discussion was never about Masters v/s Bachelors. Your contention was MCA is better than BTech (& you said MCAs beat the **it out of B Tech).

You were the one who brought up the point of superiority of MCA or BTech Degree, not me. This is what I said:

Oh I did not know about how diminutive my knowledge was despite doing an MBA from
the Top MBA School in the world per latest FT rankings (Don’t rub your eyes, you read it right). I should sincerely apologise for my ignorance. You have opened my eyes. Now that you have convinced me that an MCA is a much more coveted degree than a BE from say IIT lets do something about it. Do you have any action plan in your mind to make up for the humiliation, frustration, dejection that you have had to endure in past in your own Country?
In India they follow a system of reservation to un-do the centuries of injustice done to so called backward classes. Let’s send a petition to top IT companies like IBM/Oracle/SAP/Microsoft/Google/Infosys etc. to recognise your talent by offering you a well paid job immediately. Let’s also tell them that UK HO has put a stamp of approval on your degree and they should now tow the line by replacing B Techs with MCAs.
@mahesh - go through the earlier post please and then comment. The argument is not about Tier-1 but about someone's attempt to equate immigration requirement in UK/Oz with employability in India (based on level of degree).
@ others - please disregard my comments about degrees/professions mentioned above. I have respect for all qualifications/skills etc. I am just trying to help someone in redeeming himself from what seems like a deep seated inferiority complex.
Parting comment: how can we say that HO introduced requirements for a Masters degree because they thought MCA was superior to BTech (even if it was in IT/Sysytems/CA from IITs/MITs of this world); Or is it the case they wanted to be seen as restricting the number of non EU applicants??
