No, normally 14 years is equivalent to a Associate degree (12 + 2). Bachelors is 16 yrs of full time education (12 yrs upto Uni level) then 4 yrs for a degree (B.S., B.A, B.E.), Masters is 12 yrs upto Uni + 5/6 yrs for M.S, M.A. M.B.A.

Also the assessment will check if the courses taught in your degree program are equivalent in content to a course taught in AU of the same topic.

My suggestion to you is to ask this matter directly from ACS.

Just email your detailed education and experience and ask from them.

Sorry Bro,
U will not get any sort of answer from ACS on this issue.
They will reply as 'ACS does not offer pre assessment advice, kindly read the guidlines as on ACS (Australian Computer Society) - Membership, Professionalism and Leadership for ICT Professionals and the ICT Community'

I had the same question and got this reply....
