So i have been offered a PhD in Chemistry at King's College London. I'm not sure if i should accept it given the closure and recent re-opening of their chemistry dept.

Pls help me out with your comment/ideas/tips and advice.

Hi Everyone!

I'm looking for a PhD (Chemistry) opportunity in UK, Aussie or New Zealand. I don't know much about applying for them. I do know a PhD in US will take 5 years and the three countries i've mentioned only takes 3 years. So are there any special requirements (like an internationally published research paper) that will help me get a scholarship for a PhD in these three countries??

I know UK and Aussie are good countries to get placements in, but i don't know so much about NZ, does anyone know?

Also should if i do my IELTS exam will it also be valid if i want to apply to US? (I think they want us to take TOEFL)

And if there's anything else i should know, please i would really like your advice a lot.



Thanks!! :)
