Irrelevant comparison. A company will not hire an Arts degree for a lab life science deg position in the first place.

Your questions are coming across as very naive. Either that or you are skirting the point hoping someone will tell you what you want to hear. Let me put it in plain words your possible career outcomes:

1) Chances of getting a diploma level life science position paying 1.8-2.2k: Low to Moderate

2) Chances of getting a degree level life science position paying 3k+: Zero

3) Chances of getting a degree level public sector general position paying 3k+: Very Low

4) Chances of getting a degree level public sector teaching position paying 3k+: Moderate

5) Chances of getting a degree level private sector SME general position paying 2.2-2.5k+: Low

6) Chances of getting a degree level private sector MNC general position paying 3-4k+: Almost zero

As previous poster said, it is common sense that you should only take up such language cert if your career aspiration is in teaching. Otherwise this degree makes you even worse than a private uni / technical poly grad.
