Exactly, the best doesn't necessary equates to success. And
being shy and introvert has no place in this world - you have to be
outspoken, and this is a necessity, not an option. And hence, RP
PBL approach trains one to be outspoken and communicative - because
we have to present everyday.
To tell you the truth, the world is unfair, live with it. No matter
how smart you are, if you aren't able to effectively convey out
your thoughts, your ideas can never materialize into brilliant
works.
And that is why we in RP/SMU is better in this area, we are trained
to be more outspoken - and our learning environment simulate that
in the working society.
I don't care what people think about RP - lousy, dumping ground,
whatever...most of those people aren't really great in life to
accuse us also. What matters is yourself and how you shape your
destiny. Anywhere you go also the same, if you do well, you will
succeed. If the society requires you to be outspoken to succeed,
and if you conform, of course you will succeed.
Nothing is fair, doesn't mean you can't work around it. (=
Go RP! Go SMU! Aiming SMU after graduation.
