What will happen if Pika quit school?

duanyuqiao SG

As above...

What will happen if I quited school?

I just really... really... really.... ... ... don't feel like studying...

Especially when i got into a course I never like...

Really really feel like giving up... And just go NS first then think about my studies later...

Haiz...

I am really really sad... I also dunno why I become like this...

I know I will make a whole big lot of people dissappointed... For people around always have high hopes on me...

Which is why i decided to join you guys that day... to give myself a break... but it doesn't seems to help...

I give you a suggestion.

1. Complete it.

2. Quit. go for army. after army go for private school.

funny thing is. all output is the same = degree

diploma. 3 years in poly

private diploma 8 months.(mdis) 14 months (SIM)

after army.

go for it. spend 4 years in MDIS or even SIM. degree.

for mdis. i struture it for you

10 weeks lesson. and there will be break in between for 2 weeks.

4 days u need to go school a week. everyday 3 hours.

i think is better ya?

if you choose 2. i gladly join you =)

lol

you must be happy. main point!

no money? DUHH there is always a bank! =)

yes its worth it!

I think you should quit if you really dont like what you are doing and go into NS first.

Doesnt matter what vocation you get into because it will be 2 years that you cant give away.

Finish it then study what you wish to do. You would definitely have the advantage because you wont lose touch with the industry since you start work straight away. And by then the economy should be on the way up.

Dont waste your time doing what you dont like. Unless you can bite the bullet and put what you study into practice. If not, you will just waste your youth.

Is money a problem for you?

SevenEleven SG

There's this option for you. carry on with the poly. retake your 'o' level so that you can and must acheive a better grade to go to the course of your choice. of course you will "waste" a year in poly. but then, this is better than quitting.

Nevertheless, engineering is a good subject. learn to love it. It is one subject that will never go obselete. and engineering is a good and honurable occupation too. don't belittle it.

Finally, everything depends on you and your attitude

Pitot SG

If it is engineering that you are taking, pls think through carefully. It is not something that you can smoke through.

You have to know what you want first. Then you can decide.

reservistsianz SG

Before u do something stupid, find out wat job can u get after the study (or not studying), how much can u get, easy to find jobs etc or not. Compare the various options. Think 40 years, not 4 years ahead.

Pitot SG

40 years doing what you want to do, or 40 years doing what you dislike to do.

If you are the type who can bite the bullet and get on with it, then go ahead. Just make sure you dont have a mid-life crisis 40 years later.

hi pika..
i dont nkow which level you are @ so i can give u precise opinion..
but from the message u had written.. can i assume you are in college level?
it would be advisable not to quit... the important thing is to get a degree certificate..
and it is definately better for your future....
i have frens who quit college and having a lot of difficulty earnig money now...
and luckily he told me not to quit college.. i was in ur situation now and luckily i persevered on and listen to my frens...
listen to the bear and other tht encourage u to stay...as i agree 999% with them
tht being said.. if you dont like the course,,then y not switch course..
it might be time wasted but at least you will be doing the course u like..
the main point ..nvr leave college witout a degree in hand..
one of frens who doest like IT ..and he wasted his time studying 2 yrs + on IT...
he took optician degree and doing quite well opening a optical shop..he has 2 branches now.. :) and he is around 29 yrs old....

persevere..or change course if that is possible

cheers

If you quit now and enlist, the highest rank that you'll likely get is that of corporal, and that's at the end. It means you're going to get less allowance.

As I mentioned earlier, ease off on the work, or take a couple of days off to rest. 7-Eleven's suggestion about retaking your O-Levels to get into your preferred course is a good one as well. Whatever it is, you've got to study, research, read up and do your work properly in order to find it meaningful and interesting and make it productive. It's not going to fall into your lap without that.

x2.

Pika, I hope you can see that we are not out to nag at you. What we are saying is that while we understand your situation, many of us have gone through pretty much what you are going through right now.

What I can say is that tough as your studies may be, quitting poly will most likely make things even worse. A lot of doors are going to be closed to you, and the remaining open doors aren't all that great.

Try throwing a rubber ball into the crowd at Orchard Road. There's a 50% chance that it will hit someone with a diploma/degree. There's another 50% chance that it will hit another diploma/degree holder on the rebound.

Then the dude who picks up the ball will have a 50% chance of being another diploma/degree holder. Then when he angrily throws it back to you and misses, there's another 50% chance that it will hit yet another diploma/degree holder.

I was exaggerating in the last two paragraphs.... but not by very much, either.

wat an analogy sad but true la..

S.H. SG

It depends on whether or not you intend on following the guidelines given by society on how to live.

the Bear SG

looks like if pika quits school, a whole bunch of us would care enough to want to beat the hell outta him

S.H. SG

At least that way you guys have to pay to 养 him until he recovers, which is unlikely with so many people.

Well,

If you don’t like studying, then quit school. Go out and work and then go for NS. Many of my friends are not so well-educated and yet they turned out to be quite good.

If you like studying but don't like the course, then you can always switch course, wasting one year is better than wasting 2 - 3 years...

Seriously, there is no need to think about 10-20 years, personality and interest changes over time.

Some of my friends previously not interested in studying suddenly become interested in studying now. Those who are degree holders some also did not fair as well as they should be. It really depends on people.

There are other vocations like swimming coach ($3-4K), life guard ($1.8 -2 K), personal trainer ($1.8K - $10K), security ($1.2 K-$10K), bus driver ($1.8K-$3.5K)… which need certification, licenses but not qualification.

The only problem faced by people who are less educated, they felt the lack of knowledge, emptiness in the mind, inferiority and lack of job satisfaction...

tinuviel07 SG
