    I had consulted Sandy from Asia Pacific Group and it was an excellent experience overall. She helped me get enrolled in a professional year program. I was on holiday and had to finish off the paper work remotely at odd times. She was very transparent and prompt with her responses. Also, she is very knowledgable and knows what she is doing. I had recommended her to my friends and they also had a fantastic experience with her. Thanks Sandy for all your support.
