  They make you complete a numeracy and literacy test to do a Cert 2 even though I'm higher educated, qualified and certified. They even told me I got one of the highest scores in both and in record time.

  *I attended the institute at Lilydale*
  
  I wish I could leave Box Hill a good review, only in part due to the teachers who are worth learning from. Unfortunately they are true diamonds in the rough and you're more likely to get stuck with a "In it for the paycheck" teacher.
  
  If they're not enough to ruin the experience for you, the computer system will drive that nail right in. Whether it's work not appearing due to not being uploaded or a failure of an email service, it's pathetic and will cause more headaches then needed.
  
  Finally, pray to god you don't experience any final grading glitches like I did. I finished my course last Nov 2017 and have only now just received my diploma (5/5/18). Why did I have to wait so long? Well simply put, Box Hill made a mistake, deemed I hadn't passed and never reached out to let me know.
  
  Let that sink in. I "failed" and no one at Box Hill felt it was important enough to contact me.
  
  I would have been left waiting forever if I hadn't been the one to contact them, then wait for them to fix their stupid mistake.
  
  I never thought a piece of paper would mean much to me, but after all the effort I had to do, AFTER my course ended to get the bloody thing, it's a godsend.
  
  There are so many problems with this institute, from placement stuff ups to teachers asking for work they're already graded, and many many more.
  
  Studying at Box Hill is like being trapped in hell,day after day losing your sanity, forever asking yourself how did you come to thinking studying here was a good idea.
  
  Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else.
  
  The chips at the cafeteria are good though. Kudos to the cafeteria staff.
