my question is, how hard it is to look for part time job there? where do I start looking for one? is there an agency there like the DOLE here in the philippines where I can check the vacancies? thanks and more power guys. hope to see you soon
Be very, very skeptical of 'MBA' courses offered in london. most likely it will be somewhere like tottenham or east london and have little or no value to prospective employers after you graduate.

There is a big difference between shelling out 50k for an LBS degree, and 2k for an east ham degree

I'd recommend you look at an ACCA or CIMA that are more widely recognized rather than a 'back street' mba (it will be a similar price).. you also need to be aware that you need to show you have money in your account to pay the course fees and living expenses before you can apply for the visa. saying that you will work part time will not be accepted.

finding work will be easy - finding work much more than minimum wage, or delivering pizzas is more difficult.
