whats the point of this thread?

useless course..u will regret unless u get alot of money through biology

lol..juz joking..hehe.. its a very different way of life...if wanna read more can refer to one post about biotech job or something like dat.. u wont be living the normal life others do..very enriching experience

im not saying biomed useless.. but all bio-course useless in my last post..but juz jokig..hehe.. but definitely u will not make alot of money in this field unless u go into business with it...so think wat kind of life u want...

now usually ppl will say 1 2 do for the love and stuff like dat..but when u really get out into the world, the only thing that matters is money...just curoius, what is it about the field that interests u so much?

u wanted to biomedr cuz u cannot fulfill your dream become doctor?? biomed cannot become doctor wor no matter how hard u try...

evansoon, do u mean u r doing bioinformatics?? i think bioinformatics quite hot nowadays and sure can find company 1 but muz know where to look..try asking your profs they sure got a lot of recommend

so wat u get offered now? biomed?? graduate d? if wait till finish degree then go other place study doc will take many many years..u r girl maybe can afford do that if family not waiting for u to feed.... but if guy very susah cuz guy responsible find money..many girl phd i noe 1 they all usually marry d..thats why they can pursue what they like without thinking money

u mean u biomed then go doctor?? can share your experience how u switch? i oso interested to hear...hehe

oic..so u not local la..now in india... so what r the requirements to masuk mbbs in india like what u study now?? study from degree again or more advance?

u mean after india then haf 2 go poland?? 8.5 yrs ma siao..

so after u graduate to be a doctor you are the same as those who take their first degree as doctor right?

its easy to say lab based and research work.. that was the reason im fooled into taking biotech thinking there are jobs out there in malaysia... please give some examples so that ppl can really be sure..one of my probs after i graduate was, where the hell do i find those jobs?? cant really find any in jobstreet and usually they only want sales... Example that i can give is of course lecturer in any universitiesa but it will take up alot of years meaning ppl start working and marry and u still studying..then most research jobs ppl say are done in universities with little real research in private companies altho there are but few and im working in one of them...but it is still difficult to hunt for job if you do not have contacts or not much knowledge in this field

u mean when come back malaysia serve the country still need to work for government?? no exemption cuz u r not local grad? need serve the 4 years?

of course can sustain your living..even a bus driver can sustain living..depends on how much u spend...

i didnt know got lecturer without phd 1..but wif phd is 6k?? not bad.. starting salary 6k d?? i oso wanna be lectuer like dat

i think 10k is bluff 1 la.. sure like work 20+ yrs then get promoted and increment only 10k..come out fresh phd where got so much? sure only 3 or 4k only ma

i have a different opinion on that...while lecturers might have to work longer hours but it is not due to research..they might work longer due to night classes or some other stuff.. for those research, they r carried out by the masters/phd students so the ones working late r the masters/phd student.. lecturers only supervise or consult them regarding their research..

but when there's semester break, lecturers still need to work..no holiday but their work is other than teaching.. unless u r teacher then student holiday u oso holiday

yup i mean i agree lecturers are involved in research..this is a fact cuz without them how the master/phd students get supervised..but they r not the ones hands on doing the experiments hence no need to stay up late due to the research..

Yeah i dont think its advisable.. tell you a comment my boss made.. i worked in bio related industry..

once when we had an interview to recruit people, there was an applicant who got masters from diploma in 4 years... my boss straight away give negative comments about the applicant.. the applicant jump from diploma to degree in3 yrs and added an extra year then got a masters through some private uni arangement.. he said that how can u trust a 1 yr master.. ppl take at least 2 yrs for masters... research field requires experience and nobody gonna trust a shallow experience masters or phd

how come biomed sounds so keng but in the end the job sounds like technician only?? just keep doing the same thing.. anyone oso can do without the knowledge.. just telll someone how to do the blodd test
