Most British Universities at the time would require 3 A-Levels, so our friend wouldn't have got anywhere. Maybe Wolverhampton (ex)Polytechnic and that's pushing it. Did anyone notice the number of exact (and 99%) duplicates and stuff like PE, RE and other padding. Compared to other (non-UK) qualifications, like the French Baccaleurate (with over 10 subjects), it fares even worse. What is he trying to prove, that he's a failure, he doesn't have to, we know that!

                Почему у ваше диплом нет по-русски? Я думаю что оно тюлыпь!
