Xephone_xenon SG If one day. 80% all master/PHD liao. Then fight what? See which one better looking and thus will be better in public relations? Then will gov encourage people to go for plastic sugery?
redstone SG I'm still thinking if I should get masters. Cos my field needs Masters to get a licence. And it doesn't guarantee success. Also, school fees are like
jesschen28 SG Ya la.. I noe personal developments v. impt.. But right, reality is cruel. Its the survival of the fittest also. Fierce competition in sch, in the outside world..

BrUtUs SG Originally posted by jesschen28: [b]I heard from many frens who wanna do their Masters after they gt their degree. They all say tat nw even gt degree also no use le. SG relli gettin very stressful leh. How? Wat you tink? [/b]tell ur frens even they got masters also no use.. experience + capabilities more impt...
sunny6110 SG nah... no doubt capabilities of One is v impt... but it's not ranked #1.... let alone paper qualifications...
AMEN567889 SG In singapore context No qualifications no talk Nowadays even a diploma wont get u far in life. thats why u see those poly students upon graduation, they nid to upgrade themselves. I myself ish J1 this year..also super stress...promos comming..haiz.. thats life.face it.
BrUtUs SG yes qualification is impt... but getting a degree + gd honours is gd enuff for a starter position... the rest is up to u to work for it... if u wan more then must give more lo...
jesschen28 SG Totally agree. I'm sure we're nt the only ppl who feels it. Those who r working surely will feel it too. Esp when the company hires ppl of higher qualifications. They will definitely feel threatened.
sunny6110 SG stress-tolerance in oneself oso quite impt now... ai zai!!! the world is changing v fast everyday... the solutions u thought now may not work in future... so... main thing still is Ai Zai!! dun panick.. or qi ren you tian...
jesschen28 SG Alamak, forum discussions also nid to be so real time one meh...Anw.. ya, i agree tat really have to be "zai". But everytime u see those "zai" ppl, all talk, no actions. What's the use?
sunny6110 SG me same same u.... oso eighties babies... in our parents' time... u need to know how to follow the rules to make it in this world.. but our time now... u need to know how to break the rules in order to make it in this world... so ... is paper qualifications still the most impt thing now? i wld say is impt... but not the most.. u know?
jesschen28 SG But S'poreans are naturally competitive..If their frens get a degree, they must get a degree, if their frenz get a masters, they will try to top tat also. So they are making it look as if paper qualifications are Super important. And ppl naturally will also follow this thinking.
deathmaster SG it is so stressful.... at this rate i will still be stuck in school until i can redeem my premiums at 85 yrs old... ha
