The best or well suited candidate is usually the one selected. This is why you need to learn how to tailor your documents for every application.

Why I like France as a study destination

2. Do you need IELTS? English speaking natives don't but then it depends on the university.
3. Food is so cheap.
4. The government offers free health insurance ( I think 60% coverage). There's a possibility to apply for 100% coverage.

Based on the city you may be living in, this may be enough or not!

I used to get upset when people asked for things, I had already provided information to in my tweet! I later realised they were asking not because they were not reading but sometimes, they genuinely didn't know yet how to manoeuvre their way around Twitter.
It changed a lot for me and how I interact with others. It took me several years to find my footings on here. So I will keep on repeating the same information over and over again if my time would allow me.
It involves a lot of my time to create these resources so what's the essence of spending all this time and the people I created it for genuinely can't or don't know how to access it?
