My Semi-adventure: Almost Studied In Scotland, Share Yours Too. by Nobody: 11:49am On May 20, 2020
Somehow, i'm kinda glad i didn't follow up with the
application process; i mean, it could've been halted by the all-powerful queen from the east (Corona-virus-disease).
last year, after deliberating on whether or not i should enroll for an institution in Europe or North America (Canada precisely); to be clear guys, i was searching for institutions with more-affordable tution fee.
So, i did come across the prestigious University of
Dundee. Dundee, Scotland. I had several formal conversations with a female staff (she's incharge of international applicant from africa, i suppose) essentially, i became familar with the UK's
system of education.
She helped me with informations i needed, sites and
documents i had to go through, and unfornately i was unable to make an early application for my
internationa passport, until then i didn't know how the 'International Passport' thing worked; i'm being
honest.
So i was stuck with the final process, i gave up tho. I
felt so depressed at that time. The one time i could've had something big. Felt like, there's nothing left for me. So, that was it basically. But i believe i would find similar opportunities, or even better.
So guys, share yours lets hear them.

Since I moved over to UAE, right from the first few months I stepped in in 2017, I knew straight away that I can’t stay here for too long, tho I tried spending my last three years here, but then I was stuck with my certain not been of international standard.

And also the fear of writing IELTS and the rest kept me far, but deep inside of me I knew this isn’t the type of life I want for myself and family.
Then I had to start afresh, wrote NECO which came out well and sat for the almighty IELTS and scored a band 7.0 in my first try. After which I applied to some schools and manage to secure one in Europe. Now I will just wait for all the travel restriction to be lifted to leave Dubai for good. Thanks

Hello,

If you are planning to study abroad, let IELTS writing not deter you from achieving your goals. To study in an English-speaking country, you need to have advance knowledge of English. If you don't have it, better avoid studying abroad because you will not have a high chance of succeeding without proper knowledge of the English language.

You can spend some time to prepare for the IELTS test and then appear for it. If you're struggling with the writing part, here are some good resources to start your preparation process:
IELTS Writing Task 2,
IELTS General Writing Task 1

Writing is probably one of the challenging parts of the IELTS test. But not forget about other parts because they are equivalent.
