    Default PAR vs IQA

    Straight question:

    Would anyone know if a Pre-Assessment Result (PAR) will always be the same with the full International Qualifications Assessment (IQA)?

    I have a full 5 year BS Degree course but was assessed by NZQA as equivalent only to a LEVEL 6 using PAR.
    Is it possible to bring it up to LEVEL 7 if I go with full IQA (sending them all my university credentials)?


    I can't sleep with all these questions in my head.

    No, the response won't always be the same. For PAR they go on the superficial information you give, and for IQA, they look at the syllabus and transcripts and mark sheets, to see the topics studied, to what level, for how long, for what credits and what marks, and compare these to NZ courses to get a level.
