QS not popular? u think?

accountancy, actuarial science and quantity surveying are basically the same category. they're just in different focus/specialisation. meaning it is very likely that those applying to accountancy would also apply to the other two. so if u look amongst ur friends who're keen on taking accountancy, most likely quantity surveying is under their radar too.

this makes it into one of the popular courses not only in malaysia but abroad as well.

there are many IPTAs offering QS. u only have to check. yes, there are many female QS in malaysia. dont confuse this with land surveying, which is predominantly male because they're required to do lotsa physical work and stay in the sun for long period of time. QS are accountants in the build environment. i cant really imagine why they would have to sit there in the sun longer than an architect would.
