What are your general comments?

"Although the school's facilities were great, i have many issues with the school. Firstly its cost. Secondly the fact that there failure rate is so high, and percentage wise it is higher than other schools, so dont buy into there whole argument of, "oh we have more students, therefore we fail more..." their failure rate is 10%. which is higher than other schools. Thirdly, the foreign students do so well in second year, that there is no bell curve, so other students suffer. " Report Response
