How do you like MQ Uni? (1 Viewer)

[mumumuto]

I recently received an offer from MQ Uni and frankly speaking I was really excited about it until I browsed a little bit on some online forums (I am not australian, and MQU does have a good reputation outside Australia). Its now being looked down upon? or there existing too many international students and they just enroll in foreigners for more money?

Great thanks for any advice or opinion, and pls do forgive me of knowing nothing about MQU.

MQU has a good reputation outside of aus? Their marketing department must be doing a good job.

Well lets just say it's an open secret they won't fail international students and there has been personal anecdotes I'm hearing that none of their departments (undergrad, postgrad, phd) have any sensible academic standards. They're very reluctant to give good students high marks yet keen to inflate students marks to the middle.

Don't really agree with the second part, at least for commerce/science side, the fail rate for some of the first year core commerce units are like 30%. I also know quite a few international students that failed a lot of the undergrad units (some of my friends).

The last sentence not really the case, one of my unit everyone got Distinction or higher lol(I think they all got HD from my memory).
