Should i start from the basics ?

Thanks a lot simon for the advice.Yes i am an undergraduate (BS degree program)
student, who is about to complete his degree course.
But i am not too sure of how good i am at the basics too.
Our degree curriculum included mostly the internationally recognized courses
(coz my Univ. is internationally recognized) but the level of teaching is
not upto the mark.For example , i have done my Data Structures course but
we were just told try to understand & then just memorize algorithms with
no practical applications of them.
Any way thanks i hope i make the rght decision when the time comes, also
i should be considering the fact that after doing my BS again from a US Univ.
i will have give GRE in US i.e pay alot of $ to prepare & to give the test.
While i can just do GRE sitting in my country at less cost then come to US
for MS.
