After finishing Year 12, I came across an advertisement
in the newspaper about MIBT. As I just missed out on
direct entry into university, MIBT was the perfect option.
It provided me with the means to get into second year
of the Bachelor of Exercise and Sports Science without
wasting any time. The small classroom-style of teaching
made learning a lot easier. The lecturers were very
helpful, and were easy to approach. It also made it
easier to make friends as you belong to a class of people
whom you see everyday. MIBT provided an environment
where I progressed not just academically, but socially
too. I got to know many international students, and
learnt about their cultures and lives. This has also helped
in making networks that would otherwise be a lot harder
to form.
