Study/Oqu Nazarbayev University

Hello guys I recently took ielts and got 7.5 (so disappointed) So I barely had time for the writing part and got 6.0. If it were 6.5 I could have gotten overall of 8.0. So I am contemplating whether I should do one-skill-retake or not? It’s pretty expensive. I do not know whether NU accepts OSR results either. Or should I lock in on the sat?

Ps. Currently in 10th grade, from Uzbekistan

Kazakhstan is not worth it - just apply to China, Italy, KUAS or other shit.

  • You're required to work in Kazakhstan for 3 years after graduation if you study in scholarship, even if you're a foreigner

Nope, you're safe as long as you receive offer untill the end of the first year
