If I were to ask based on the opinions of you guys (maybe you guys have experienced it),

Which design college or university would you recommend has the best teaching methods, quality guidance, up-to-date curriculum & constant exposure to outside activities, events in Digital Animation?

haha even though u r staying at the hostel, but still u cant walk from hostel to campus..its just TOO FAR!! if walk i think u need to walk at least 1 hour(provided u have the energy)..haha..but no one do it before i think..they either drive/tumpang ppl's car/squeeze bus with foreigners.

yeah..toa only has degree in GD and MM..ID only diploma..thats why keith chee said mayb TOA will launch degree for ID next time.

haha..today eric leong just gave a talk to us..serously he is a DAMN FUN PERSON! not sure how's him in class..but when he's giving a talk,he's SUPER NICE! he gave the talk for 1hour and we all laughed 1hour for non-stop.. rclxms.gif

Wow, you guys are seriously making TOA sound like a nice place to be in! tongue.gif

if u r listening to what a TOA students said,it might be quite unfair..he/she might dunno whast the advantages/disadvantages of both college..

but im a student of lkw and why i quit..i sure have my own reasons right? haha..

ok well i think TOA is really a serious school..quite strict too..
today the principal of TOA, Tatsun Hoi just gave us a talk..i truly agree wat he said..we join TOA just for one reason, WE WAN TO LEARN..as simple as that.

so if u r a person who are  looking for freedom,relax lifestyle, feel free to choose any colleges u wan..but not TOA..if not it gotta make a hell of ur life..however, if you are a person who wish to achive what u r aiming all this while, learn things u dunno, willing to suffer for now, TOA is the right place..so it really depends.but don even 4get, u r spending ur parents money now..choose the life u wan...=)

btw, i think ID is much more interesting under the guidance of eric leong..he's quite active and he not just teach u bla bla bla..he said he more focus on practical,thats why he organised lots of exhibitions,competitions etc which i don think lkw will do.

True, everything has got its boons and banes...

But what you said, between choosing freedom & relaxing lifestyles and suffer at the beginning but wish to achieve what one's aim, I'd go for the hard choice.
Going through the crisis, but in return gaining something valuable in the end, I guess it's worth the effort huh? sweat.gif

haha..thats why i say depends lo..see which is ur priority..but what i like about TOA is :
1) teaching more serious
2) inside environment (NOT OUTSIDE)
3) easy to have more friends(almost everyone local)
4) more convenient(easy to find food,buy things)
5) the environment makes me think the place is for me to study and learn..i dunno why..but in lkw, i jsut think that since i pay money d, then i learn lo..thats all.
6) some handsome/pretty lecturers..nah..just joking..=)
ETC..
p/s : but i dunno whether i will start to hate toa coz of my assignments onot la..haha..at least i have experience in LKW so i know how to manage my time properly.

LOL! u r still a sec school student? lol.. i thought u r working already or what..hahaha

btw,as for the handsome&pretty lects, i shudnt comment much..come here n study and see urself..HAHHA..currently my lecturers all very young one..all like less than 30..

oh ya..not much fun after class for u in toa a..LOL! after class u have to go home and do assignments... thumbup.gif

What made you thought so? tongue.gif Lol, maybe I post too often xD!

Oh, the lects are <30? Wow, I wonder if they really have good exposure and training in those creative fields...So, right now do you think they're good enough? I mean maybe they're competent and equally passionate to teach? I somehow worried that the quality of teaching might dropped over the years, as news have shed lights on it for quite some time...

And hey, one question...most of the assignments you do are tediously long? From many post I've read, usually it could take almost a day and you can only rest a few hours, is that true? How is it like for you in your daily life as a TOA student?

My bad for asking too much, I guess curiousity is my middle name! blink.gif

no worries..i don mind spending time to reply u..i don wan ppl to follow my footstep..haha..

oh well..yeah..lots of them are below <30..thats my current lecturers la..not sure if other sem other class..example,my figure studies lecturer already been teaching in toa for 6years..and he just said to us today that he will teach us what he know..and somehow i agree that we cant depends on lecturers that much..we have to do our own research as well..but what i can comfirm between the lecturers in lkw and toa, lecturers in toa is 100000000% more serious than lkw..

as for the assignments,give u this face to explain everything " brows.gif "

lets say in 1 week, u have finished art assignments, design,drawing, figure studies assignments..IF u anyhow do,they reject..good luck to u lo..REDO+the current week assignments..next week submit two..try submitting late without a valid reason,and u will know whats gonna happen..not only this, u still have those communication skill presentation/malaysian studies assignments/history of art assignments as well.. brows.gif

Right, like all aspiring artist wouldn't wanna follow an experienced student's footstep. tongue.gif

Wow, the lects must be really dedicated from what you said...and about the research, I'm wondering if I could ask what kind of research would you do if you're on your own?

Oh and that face...don't tell me assignments are gonna be hell? blink.gif Ugh..don't tell me it's even more tedious than doing school homework?! shakehead.gif Hey...I didn't know there are so many types of just -art- assignments?! blink.gif

Wow, it must been a headache for you huh? rclxub.gif But I guess you can always head to the nearest recreation funland whistling.gif -->Sunway...is it true?

Helloo ha, i'm a student of LKW myself studying Games Technology Course.
Seriously Africans a lot here haha.

but i've been in LKW for 3 years, and all i can say it's awesome..
Well seriously, it depends on individual, for now all my course teachers is great, helpful, fun to go with and easy to communicate. However, different course has different teachers and each person has different perspective. It depends on individual, i don't mind if you come here study and i can guide you, but you will still have to learn to be independent and know how to keep self-discipline.

Location - Off-campus desaria villa.
20 minutes by bus to school,
10 minutes back by bus from school.

RM90 per month for bus. haha, and it comes at an hourly interval, but it depends. I've been sitting the bus for 3 years, furthermore it's definitely far to the city.

Desaria to Sunway RM30 if i'm not mistaken since staying here i've been staying at home and studying hard. haha

Yeah, at first my first choice was LKW but I was a little blur about it initially.

Last year, after attending a career day exhibition at my school, I found out about TOA and its portfolio of its students' achivements and realised how good it probably is. From that day on, it was my targeted college I've been aiming for when I leave for college.
I can consider your opinion but LKW is too far from my place and I don't know if I'm able to financially survive with loads of bus fee and many other things over there as TOA is close to my home sad.gif

But thanks for the suggestion!
