Why do you all think IMU BDS is so expensive? Almost double that of AIMST.

Any feedback appreciated.

on one hand, that would seem like an excellent way of getting people to be independent and resourceful.....

on the other hand, people will complain why they are paying so much fees for so little..........

fyi, it's the standard way for many oecd unis, not the spoonfeeding msians are used to......

eg, contact hours (lectures and tutorials/practicals) per subject in oz unis is 3-5 hrs/week only, if you take the standard 4 subjects per sem, that's 12-20hr/week.........tutorials are important, you get marks for attending, and can be refused sitting for final exams if you do not attend the minimum of tutorials.........

lectures are not..........nobody cares whether you attend or not, many do not..........it can be so boring, people just sleep in lectures.........

the didactical way must stop........and dialectic way adopted.........(google if you don't understand what these terms means)......

So true about spoon-feeding, the standard way of Malaysian education system.

In the course of my work training many fresh graduates, the difference between the spoon-fed ones ( which are mostly local product) and those from other countries are quite obvious. Nevertheless, once a while, I do come across some local grads who bring a smile to my face. There was one grad from China who is a top student but hopelessly worthless in practical. On a whole though, the ones who are NOT spoon-fed will excel and they normally come from Developed Countries. Sad truth but true.

there is nothing wrong with imu's website.....the problem is with people with internet access and who don't know how to use it productively......

So true, plain and simple.
