Personally, I think if you can skip, just skip, it saves you a lot of time

THat's why I din't opt for studying overseas....
Most of my seniors who studied masters (even those who ain't 1st class students) are recommended to convert to phD in the end anyway (in the field of Science, not sure about the others) haha~
And since the scholarship offered is very good, why not? Of course there will be stress, but its well worth it

Wow, you are working under 3 lecturers for your Phd? that is amazing, well i learnt that Prof Chong Ving Ching, also a very prominient lecturer in the field ecology and biodiversity, and you ar not under him? i love to attend his lecture as well as like his teaching style, very detailed and informative
well what u mean is converting your master to Phd at the end is highly recommended? i know many wanted to continue up to master but not till Phd, that is what i wonder, because i do heard about Master but no Phd= Haf boiled egg? Is that so?
