Anybody here used NARIC OR UCAS for degree comparability?

[MissDi]

Hello! Anybody has an experience of submitting documents to NARIC? How did it go? Please let me know. I wanna know if doing this is worth my time. lol I have a degree in the Philippines of BS Psychology from Ateneo University and I'm just wondering if any of you experienced having degrees compared. Does NARIC give you proper document paper regarding the results? How about UCAS? Has anybody used it to check on tariff points before entering university? Please advise.

Thanks in advance

I never used NARIC, I think they are completely non sense.
You have to start from scratch ... take an access course while you can or land in a job and stay there in a few years (jobs here in the UK nurture you and provide training/certificate) which will hone you in the future advancement in your career.

Thanks for the reply. I am awaiting papers from NARIC now. I thought I'd try it anyway. Fortunately, I was also able to speak to the university and admission department and they will be more than willing to accept me whenever I'm ready and advised me I DO NOT need to take any courses prior. Good thing I have a work too and been in it for nearly half a year now. Feeling thankful!! :)

I have been having problem with this as I am looking for a new job and there are qualifications that an applicant must have, which I do not know if I have that or not. I have highschool diploma and I studied BA literature and BA in psychology but I did not finish it, I don't know if the education I had is higher or same level of GCSE, I do not really get what GCSE is equivalent with!
