"I really don't understand what's the pointing of studying that you don't enjoy. It will only waste your time. I think you should advice your friend to think twice. Besides that, it's also a waste of money.Is pride the issue here? I simply don't understand why many people always think NTU is a dumping ground. If you're good, you're good. "
"Enjoy or not is another thing. For him, just want to get into local U, it is his objective.Different ppl got different perception or thinking, we cant change him. Just helping him to find out the easiest path to get into local uni. "
"because in singapore, a degree from a "dumping ground" course still commands a higher salary than a alevel cert / poly dip. "
"NTU EEE is a dumping ground......"
Interesting point
"Normally, sg employers won't give high pay to the one that has completed its distance learning education in Singapore. You see their average pay. I felt most are lowly paid compared to others. And some might even get the pay of poly grads instead. It's because if you go to the overseas uni, you are taught by their world-class faculty. If you studying your degree in sg, you are not taught by the world-class faculty, even if delivery methods is the same, but there is some conceptions about their standards so employers won't recognise the local distance learning degree that much. Unless most your employers studied distance learning degrees, we will wait for that to happen, but it won't happen overnight. The "distance learning" culture has been only less than 10 years old. 10 years ago, it's never been like hot cakes nowadays, people last time work first, then get part-time degree. Now without work first, no job experience everyone getting one. And somemore govt never limit the number of distance learning grads per yr, I can say there are abundance of them. This culture affects pay as well. How employers choose? The best of out of all I guess. "
Finally....frm myself
I hate myself for not trying hard enough to get into a Local U,where every employer will recognise.......
