Admin and Red Tape

Scene from 'Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' featuring fat slobby aliens who work with the Galaxy's Immigration Department asking vistors to fill in form, after form, even forms for filling up new form.

What is it with administration?
I cannot believe that if one comes from a country that has english as its first language and having taken English and English Lit at O-levels and aceing them would still require one to take IELTS/TOFEL, just so all requirements for international applicants would be satisfied. Seriously! Sometimes I wish I have balls of steel like my mother who would fight this to the very end. Application processes are the worst.
