what course do you say is advisable

Something new and related to management which supplements your previous study and experience but the same subjects shouldn't be repeated i.e supply chain, public relations, etc.

Hmm but it's weird cuz they want us to choose a course related and in line with previous studies but then at the same time they want differences as well.
I wonder who is GBM course for then?

I am not making anything up, just sharing my experience, have seen a lot of refusal stories. Having the ability to select the course is important and its advised to take some time to make the decision so that the visa does not end up getting refused. For arts degree holders its more suitable.

Really confusing what their criteria for approving is.

You have to draft the SOP in such a way to prove the relation, that's the biggest struggle for many.

It's still possible to get approved, the risk factor is sometimes moderate for this combination depends on which visa office, leniency of the VO etc..

Not that accurately but I heard from some credible sources that it's only a matter of days for government offices, it won't be weeks like its rumoured.

That's good to hear them working more days if rumours are true. Can't really find any source to confirm their working days.

Are all our SDS files processed in Canada? What are their staff strength like? (no. of VOs)
