That's an exaggeration for Canada.

As http://www.workpermit.com/canada/points_calculator.htm says, a PhD is +25 points and you need 67 to get in. It helps a lot, but far from a guarantee.




Not even that.. "A two-year university degree at the Bachelor's level AND at least 14 years of full-time study = 20 points"

So just doing a bachelor's will give you 80% of the PhD points..
