  Looks like being a Lao Xue Sheng isn so bad after all, maybe we are clearer about what we want in life.
  
  And hopefully we will do better in our results as it is the only thing that can keep us going

  Yup from what I see, usually older students are more mature and know they they want. Hence they're more driven and they usually manage to get better grades.

  Last time one of my tuition teacher in my sec sch days got her master degree at the age of 64 so it is never to old to learn...
  
  For me I am a diploma holder aged 22 this year and I plans to take a degree (If necessary) in 5-7 years time when I gathered enough work experiences...

  Is better to have some job experience. At the age of 27 years old, is almost difficult to get a job if you don't have any job experience.

  a lot of people study and work at the same time.
  
  no big deal.

  Problem is that the course for all levels of studies is only available in full time and not part time.
  
  1 more thing to add is that I am really interested in this line of work so I guess I will have to go all out for it despite the age barrier
