Pretty much. Remember that an MSc in many cases is just a 'transition degree' + research project. Some unis (Cambridge for sure) will give you a MSc if you work in the field where you took your degree & write a paper.
Getting onto an Masters couse is much easier than the corresponding Degree course - the research project you choose is obviously important - it would pay to find out what fields your tutors are interested in & align your application with their interests. (Why would they want to teach you if you were interested in different things to them afterall?)
I don't see why you shouldn't sit a GRE/GMAT? It certainly isn't going to harm an application. If you think the filipino degree is just as good, then you will pass a GRE - no thats NOT being unfair - its the same for everyone else!!

I still have two years to go before I graduate in college here in the Philippines but thanks for the tips. It's really good that at least a number of UK universities are visiting the country for education fairs. The representatives were informative, helpful, and really funny. I actually chatted with them a bit longer than others.
I'll probably take GRE in the future as it is also required in American unis so I could have more options. I will probably start to review next year. And maybe familiarize myself with British English (spelling, grammar, etc). At first, I was really clueless why others use whilst, not while, program, not programme, or revise, not review.

I like Scottish (Glasweigian?) accent. It sounds sexy. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]
