Gomes, who holds a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Physics from the University of the West Indies, St Augustine, will pursue a Master of Science in Cosmology at the University of Oxford in October next year.
Added emphasis for the ably-challenged.

North of the Zambezi, they have long known about the suppression of free speech, about the bloody redistribution of land along racial lines, about politicians happy to employ armed – and sometimes uniformed – mobs to kill their opponents. They are practices imported to this region, along with the railways, by the British.
Unlike the African press, the Western media rarely invoke the name of Cecil John Rhodes: nearly a century after his death – on 26 March 1902 – his name is more associated with Oxford Scholarships than with murder. It’s easier to focus on the region’s more recent, less Anglo white supremacists: Ian Smith, for instance, who – despite his Scottish background – seems cut from the same stuff as those Afrikaner politicians who nurtured and maintained apartheid farther south.

uwi can be good at math. Dr Stephane Gift was/is there or used to be there..a great Titty/west indian mathematician..producer of the fifth law of calculus...
at Oxford I dont know what the study of cosmology means in current terms. I will tell you this. Big Bang based cosmology has been proven to be faith based nonsense, yet as far as I know at the highest level of official cosmology taught at elite universities, cosmology is still big bang based.
the school of the Electric Universe has debunked the big Bang Theory totally, comprehensively and placed an electric conception at the heart of cosmology that is clearly an advance on Big Bang Theory in the study of the Queen of the sciences, Cosmology.
so if our young scholar goes and studies Bin Bang based theory Cosmology, she will be set back a year or 2 or 3...unless she can see the duality..use one to get where she wants career-wise while developing study of the real direction now extant.
of course that is dangerous career-wise for she will get nowhere officially if she does not toe the official insane line of study and research..and come up with results that the cosmology police accepts. otherwise she will have to take her chances among the EU rebels
Re: T&T girl wins Rhodes scholarship - ketchim - 11-30-2015
First of all , she will have to do 2 years of Math :
to come up to the equivalency of an Oxford undergrad Math degree.
Then she can pursue the graduate Masters....

But it was Rhodes who originated the racist “land grabs†to which Zimbabwe’s current miseries can ultimately be traced. It was Rhodes, too, who in 1887 told the House of Assembly in Cape Town that “the native is to be treated as a child and denied the franchise. We must adopt a system of despotism in our relations with the barbarians of South Africaâ€. In less oratorical moments, he put it even more bluntly: “I prefer land to niggers.â€
