1. Are you fit and well to be interviewed today?
Yes, I am fit and ready for interview.
2. Why did you choose UK for your studies?
I have chosen UK for my further studies because
1. The UK is one of the world’s most popular destinations to study higher education, with more than
500,000 international students enrolling each year.

universities are among the best in the world, and consistently perform well in world rankings.
They also have a reputation for world-class research.
3. UK higher education degrees and qualifications are recognised by employers and academics
worldwide.
4. Students get the opportunity to develop the skills, knowledge, critical thinking, and connections
to drive forward their careers.

3. Have you considered this course in any other country or in Pakistan?

This course is being offered in some other countries like Australia, USA as well however; I have
selected UK as Pakistani laws are primarily based on UK laws. Moreover; UK universities rank the
best in terms of providing quality education to its students. UK universities also offer Master
programs which can be completed in less time as compared to other countries. Study expenses
are also much affordable as compared to some other countries. This course is also being offered
in Pakistan in many universities like Bahauddin Zakariya University Multan, Punjab University etc
however; the quality of education system in Pakistan is not at par with UK education system.
Moreover; I want to get a degree, which is internationally accepted all over the world. I strongly
believe that getting degree from UK will definitely help me in my future career on my return to
my home country. I have specific interest in comparative commercial law as I am already working
as a practicing lawyer in M/S Rana Asif Saeed & Associates located in Multan. Many universities in
UK fall within first 50 in worldwide ranking and this aspect of quality education inspired me to
choose UK as my next study destination.
