-I beleive u get 25 points on education once u have a degree.
-If you can substantiate your experience with documents then u shud get the points.

srjafri,

The issue of Pakistani qualifications in comparison to UK ones has been covered by a post to me on 'degree equivalency' by kfaruki a few posts below this - you gotta do some leg work and check it out. If it turns out that your Pakistani MSc is not equivalent to a UK MSc bu tonly a UK Bachelors you will get 15 points. You can only get points for the UK MSc at Imperial College once you have successfully completed the course - I suspect you are at least 5-6 months away from this given that UK MSc's run over a 12 month academic year i.e. Sep - following September as opposed to a standard 9-10 month academic year Sep - June/July following year.

thanks Kayalami - but u did'nt answer my 2nd question. please reply my 2nd question.
1. You do not tell us your age bracket as you get different work experience points for an under 28 (young person's application) or 28 and over (standard application).

2. If under 28 you would get 35 points or 50 where you had 1 year senior level work experience which you do not appear to have.

3. If you are 28 and over you would get 25 points based on my opinion that you do not get any points for specialist or senior level experience.

Dude you don't provide enough details and obviously have not read the HSMP guidance leaflet - you may wish to correct that for a start. Don't know where/how you get 55 points from.
