Hi all,
I’m 21 this year and currently a year 1 Undergrad from
University of London in sg.
Well, I’m thinking of withdrawing from the program to study in
UNSW or UQ in oz. I want to do that because I do not
really like UOL as even though its a private degree,
the standards is really high and its really hard to obtain 1st/2nd
upper class honours (if u really know the standards of
UOL). I would rather use the energy to get a world
class degree from a top uni in aus.
But the only setback is that I’ve got to undertake the
foundation (duration 1yr) which is starting nxt year as I’ve not
quite met the requirements to gain direct entry for their undergrad
program cos their requirements are high.
That means I will start my degree at the age of 23, which I feel
is kinda old instead of graduating at the age of 24 if I continue
my degree in UOL.. Financially, my parents are
supportive and they have no problems with it.
Should I choose this route? Is it really worth it?
u r in a chicken and egg situation. In australia, though u will
enjoy studying, i t can be even more stressful as u are alone, need
to cook for yrself to eat, ect. Besides, discipline problem
in australian university hostels is also a prob. Why not transfer
to other courses within SIM?
DONT BE CONCERNED ABOUT THE AGE THING, THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE
TAKING DEGREE AT AGE 35.
