if u have determination and willing to put in effort, it's actually quite a breeze for some...
of cos, u will have to manage time very well.....juggling workload, going for nite classes, doing assignments, projects, study for exams.... -
ya .. that why idono if i can cope liao that time i go work is already very tired liao if still have to study dono can cope or not lol...

Army always teach you " its all in your mind"Originally posted by stupidboi:ya .. that why idono if i can cope liao that time i go work is already very tired liao if still have to study dono can cope or not lol...
before u even started, u think you cannot cope. of cse cant!
I am sure if others can do it, so can you..dun worry
But to see if you are really suitable for the course, ask youself if you like this field or not first. If you like, set your mind to study well for it.
if you dun like after working for a while, think of what you want to be in 5 years time. Where and how your life will want to be and work towards it...
cheers

From your description:Originally posted by stupidboi:im interested in comp stuffs but i just find programming damn tough and i dont like to whole day sit in front of comp, i also interested in pschology but dont like to be couseller, i interested in science but dont like to do experiment lol,
- u got interest in comp stuffs but dislike programming
- dun like to sit in front of comp for the whole day
- u got interest in psychology but dislike being a counsellor
- u got interest in science but dislike experiment
My summary is:
- you like work that enable you to roam around or a mixture of both (roam around & sitting in office)
- you curiosity is strong but u dislike hands-on job.
- you don't like too much logical thinking
I guess you are more suited for these jobs:
- marketing/sales (comp/IT)
- service (comp/IT)
- customer service (comp/IT/hotel/tourism etc)
My analysis tio boh? If tio, then are u interested to get a marketing/business degree? -

what about hotel, tourism or customer svc?
-
not bad .... but they also have economic and finace to study

I think i will go to work first ba since i cant decide what course to take, do u all think it a good choice?
-
honestly i think studying first is better if u can afford full time.. part time studies only if you really have no other alternatives.. its not easy to juggle so many things one.
