One of our friends, who was a science student at Matric level in Lahore, wanted to apply for a post grade diploma, which has the requirement that she should have GCSE Maths grade A-C or equivalent (she already have a masters degree). She was in confusion she called the university and got different replies from admissions department. When she visited the university, she was told that her Matric Level Maths is equivalent to GCSE Maths. She got admission straightforwardly and had not to sit for University’s equivalency test. She is a British National and a home student.
However, UK Naric has considered her Matric Maths below GCSE Maths. UK Naric also says it is only a guidance of equivalency not the authority. I believe which means that a Pakistani or the other applicants would not be able to sue them for issuing misleading (discriminatory) guidance. Her University never required Naric’s guidance but she had that for other (employment) purpose.
