Sistem Edukasi Aust se-superior itu kah?
Dan pendapatmu?
Saya, dan banyak students lainnya, yang telah lumayan makan asem garem dunia edukasi kangguru, belum bisa berkoar banyak karena tidak tau sistem UK.
Tapi mau gimana lagi, sistem (dan budaya) Anglosakson saat ini sangat berpamor dan bermanfaat untuk kompetitas di dunia kerja.
Knowledge of the English language. Perlukah dikomentari?
Tapi ngomong2 ex-housemates saya di SYD selalu bilang, you should learn more English. Boh ...

Australia, NZ education Mecca for Brits
Increasing numbers of British students are heading to Australia and New Zealand to further their education, a newspaper says.
The Times reported the number of British students travelling to the Antipodes to take up undergraduate and postgraduate places had risen by more than a third since 2002.
More than 6,250 British students were studying in Australia and New Zealand last year.
"Sports sciences, health sciences, and Asian studies have attracted British students in the past," Kathleen Devereux, from the Australian Trade Commission, was quoted as saying.
"But now people who want to study medicine or veterinary science but have failed to gain a place at a university in Britain are considering the move.
"You'd think of the UK market as being a fairly mature market, but we have had 12 per cent year-on-year growth from 2002 to 2005."
While university fees are more expensive in Australia than in Britain, lower living costs and the pound's strength against the dollar make studying abroad an attractive option.
The newspaper said another drawcard was the position of 13 Australian and three New Zealand institutions in the world's top 200 universities, according to the Times Higher Education Supplement.
Kejal Patel, a 22-year-old student from Charlton, South London, hopes to undertake postgraduate study in psychology at the University of New South Wales after struggling to find the work experience needed to secure a place in Britain.
She plans to return to Britain as a chartered clinical psychologist in half the time it would have taken her at home.
"It's really exciting, the standards are very good and it's based on a British education system, so I feel that I would slot in really well," Ms Patel told the newspaper.
"It's also a really dynamic, vibrant country."
Ms Patel expects to work part-time during her two-year course and has applied for a graduate scholarship offered to UK residents wanting to study in Australia.

i wanna send u an email of an article (bahan reading buat anthropology unit gue) about the education system in usa and work opportunities n stuff, written by an indian dude. i think it's pretty good. it tells u about how easy the stuff being taught in american schools are (me living breathing witness to it, really easy. 7th grade maths, i learned it di kls 3 SD. so yeah i was always in the honor roll). i'll send it to you later yah. i kinda forgot ur email :(
WA is still WA. ngga ada perkembangan sama sekali. not spiralling downwards, though, which is good. my life? oh gosh dont ask. the only thing i can tell u at the moment is "i have some really weird ex-boyfriends".
woah, brits are heading to NZ and australia? what's happened to oxford and cambridge? *cita-cita naif waktu TK dan SD: KULIAH DI OXFORD! tapi sayang IQ ga nyampe.. :P*

i never had any education in US (murni anak lokal :D) but my best friend did, and she said that US education is waaaay easier than indonesia. that explains a lot why she always entered honor rolls and became teacher's pet in her previous school. "usually it was asian people who always got honor roll..." she told me that.
PYRO : kls statistik 1ºyear di uni juga gampang, jauh lebih mudah dari SMU di JKT. Tapi entahlah, kalo secara micro mungkin materi di RI lebih superior tapi macro, kayanya para anglosakson boleh bertepuk dada.
KAPPA : entah knp di negeri luar Asia, kebanyakan teachers pet, kutu buku, dan segudang atribut lainnya diberikan kepada students asal Asia. Apakah kita semua emang demen belajar? Atau sadar diri krn edukasi di Asia adalah quasi sakral dan sgt penting.
aint going to comment on the education, just a quick hi.
it has been a while gak berkunjung kemarin. so, life's been good, eh? love the pics!
