Thanks Casa, I understand fully what you are saying, but that doesnt really answer what I need to know, I DO comply with their expectancies, English is my first language, AND i have a teaching qualification IN English.. Im not debating whether it is, or isnt on the list, what im asking is, If i submit my application without it, would i be rubber stamped away with a 'NO ENGLISH' or would they look at it objectively and think 'well yup, clearly this person speaks english, the debate isnt to avoid rules or to not comply infact Ive done nothing BUT comply. the fact is, its alot of money to be spent for a piece of paper that validates what anyone who READS my certificate can figure out.
so my question is, will somebody look at my case on a case by case basis and realise that whilst a test could be useful for SOME. for an english native speaker, aswell as somebody who has TEACHING qualifications in English.. will common sense prevail? or is the system really this bad.
