I got my public U application today. They accepted me into material engineering in USM which is pretty good considering the probability of getting into USM is very small.However, I've already paid RM16290 to IMU and now I have to make a choice whether to go for Pharmacy or Engineering.I'll sum everything down for you guys...hopefully you guys can give me some comments.
Pharmacy
Cons
First of all, the fees are of course much more higher....around RM34000 a year not including books,accomodation,food and oth living expenses.Its all the way in KL so I'll be far away from the comfort of my home. the lectures willl be tougher,and even the medicine professor there said that it can be tougher than studying medicine. I'll have to serve the government for 3 years...a drag huh.
Pros
Its a good university,with satisfying facilities,a convenient place to stay.When I graduate, I'll already have a job since I have to work with the government and even aft that I'll already have some hospitals wanting me to work for them as IMU students for Pharmacy have this agreement thingy with private hospitals. And of course, the name 'pharmacist'....wow...has a ring to it don't you think?
Material Engineering
Cons
Not really sure how the lecturers are like in public Unis.From what I heard, the lecturers are a bit ditzy,they teach some stuff in Malay and don't really know English....well, you know what kinda lecturers I'm talking bout...mine was in USM, she said some of the people there are biased.Next,I'll graduate as an engineer which I have to work in factories...meaning to say I cant be my own boss.And right now, I don't really know what material engineering is about but my god sis is in it and she's earning quite a lot.I plan to ask more bout it.I'm sure some of you reading this might not really knwo what it is either...yea.....by the name...smth to do with materials but what exactly?
Pros
It costs lesser than gng to IMU thats for sure...around RM300 a year. Its nearer to home since my campus will be in Nibong Tebal, Seberang Perai.Yea Ru, you come over to penang island to study whereas I might be gng over.As I've said my godsis is doing quite well and engineering is also a good career...one of the professionals.USM is quite a well known Uni and is one of the best in Malaysia where everbody would want to go to.Those in Form 6 that is.
There ya have it.What do you ppl think? I'm prety ok at Maths and Physics, my Chemistry is alright...so bot of the choices above are ok with me. But the problem is I don't know which one I'm more interested in.

Yo girl,
I cant say i know much abt either career but i think a material's engineer sounds way cooler =)
Plus i think u earn more too and u dont have to be under the bond of government.Gives u more freedom.I'm not sure if u'll enjoy engineering (or maybe u will).
One of my uncles is in the engineering line, i can talk to him for you if u want.Just let me know if u have any questions,i'll try my best to get the answers :D
As for the other,I know that pharmacy students hardly have a life.There's just too much to study.But if u have the passion for it then what the heck right.
Just think carefully and do what u feel comfortable doing.That's what really matters at the end of the day.It's ur life, don't let anyone else decide it for ya.
All the best in whatever you decide to do,dear.We'll always be there for ya.Tc alrite.
Hey we have date this Sun night k.
