it need not necessary be a bad decision. i can give u an
example. those who had graduated from local poly ard the year of
97-00 and went straight for a 2-4 yrs degree might feel this. after
getting their degree, this grp of pple are badly hit by the economy
slump and sky high unemployment rate. fresh uni grads found
themselves having great difficulties landing a job that match their
educational status, or none at all. on the other hand, their poly
counterparts who joined the workforce after graduating from poly
are mostly holding stable jobs and have clocked a few years of work
experience when the economy slump occured. employers are also more
keen to employ experienced poly grads, rather than fresh uni
grads.
thus as you can see, you are not really at a disadvantage. with
many viruses spreading ard, you'll never know when the dark days
will come again. so, secure yourself with a job first to lighten
the burden of your mum. stay for 2-3 yrs to get the experience (and
savings). after that, like what others have suggested, u can get a
part time degree, or full time degree but work part time. at least
after u have gotten your degree, u still have some working exp.
this will give u a competitive advantage.
dun stress yourself too much ok? best wishes.
