Frankly, If you're paying, most will take youn regardless of how stupid and/or unqualified you are. If you're bright and qualified, they still want your money, so they're not likely to tell you you're over-qualified. Pisses home students off no end, until they see the fees foreign students pay.

I believe the UK system is very similar to the Australian system. Maybe you should come here instead.
I'd love to go to school in Australia. But really, the only reason I'm considering going back to school already is that I'm treating it as kind of a contingency plan. If things progress and the situation is right, it would be an easy way to cover moving to England for a year. Yes, I think things out way too far in advance.

Well, I'm bright and unqualified, and I'm paying international student rates. I'm in!
