Hi guys.
I'm an Italian computer science student, and I'm going to graduate (the next February).
I would really like to take a PhD in London (or other city in the UK ), starting from September/October 2011.
Well, my main problem is that I don't have an English language certification (yet), I can understand written English very well (I regularly read English books), but I'm not so good in writing and talking (as you see:), perhaps I simply need some more practice and experience.
Do you think I have to give up for this reason? Maybe it's too late to get a certificate here in Italy? Is there a possibility to obtain the needed certificate(s) directly in UK?
Also, what about founding? Where should I ask?
I'm looking at various UK universities websites, and also on this website, but I steel feel a bit confused
Is there any Italian (or not) who had similar experience? Can anyone give me some "personal" hints?
Thanks a lot!!!
Cheers!
