Hi.

I completed a Masters Degree in South Africa (Medical Law) and want to do another Masters at a UK University (still deciding which one).

I note that there is a "pre-masters" option where you do a diploma / certificate first before moving on to the Masters.

Is this compulsory for international students? If not, how beneficial would it be to first do the "pre masters" diploma and then move on to a Masters or should I start with the Masters directly?

Thanks and regards.
