I got the offer from UMS in 2000..... studied 1 yr.... then re-apply UM Chemistry.... now i'm a chemist.... none of those continue studying in Environmental Science working in that field... It was just rubbish.... Of course they will say that course is good when u study there.... but dun trust them. Many are jobless after graduate.

I still remember the orientation which was the toughest days of my life.... barely slept for 3 hrs a day... all woke up like zombie and start singing and exercising at 5am...the programme carried on until 12 midnight.....then hv to go back wash cloth and bath....4.30am woke up again... many got sick. Better reject the offer if its a lauzy course.

You got your point there, but not all people can afford to study at private tertiary institute, hence studying in a local government university with PTPTN loan provided is the only hope for them for a better tomorrow.

As i mentioned earlier, i applied to UM and continue using the ptptn loan after paying back the initial 1 yr loan. Do u think its worth it to payback less than 10k but can get a good degree for your future? No point to continue with a lausy degree. There are many courses at SST which are useless...so beware.

Hmm, that's a point to ponder, but at least you got what you wanted.. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

I'm a Sabahan of course and going to where I've been all my life isn't exactly what I look forward to. Now let's put that aside shall we? Since it won't matter to you and it is a personal reason.

In general, UMS has one of the best environments and facilities offered from all the local universities available. By right, I wouldn't have any problem wanting to enter the university. Then again, I'm aiming to take English. Like it or not, our English standard of education isn't exactly admirable so to say.
You see dear, he received a course that he did not want, therefor it's only natural that he opted to go for another university for a course that he wants/ has confident in doing. Having a degree in your hand by the end of the day does not guarantee you a job.

I'm sure you wouldn't want to waste a few years doing something you don't like. sweat.gif Why are you hesitant on going UMS by the way? What's your story?

Being in UMS was my past, that's why I am here in this thread, to guide and help future UMS students wanna be with any queries that they may encounter..

By the way, buleh bah kalo ko.. icon_rolleyes.gif

You can just ronda around Alam Mesra/Kingfisher, usually in front of the houses will put sign "For Rent", or you may look out for notices at those eatery center too..

Changing courses is possible, just that the chance of success is quite low, but it can be done..
