hey gals... yy here
im in such a dilemma now. told u all i accepted ntu double degree biomed+TCM right? yesterday night came an MOE letter saying tt ive been offered the MOE teaching award. i should be happy, but somehow i dont feel tt way. =( cos if i were to take up this award, i have to read biological sci in ntu, n be a teacher for life???
oh man, jas, sorry for lecturing u abt being a teacher if u go science in nus, seems it got back to me. but the award pay for all my sch fees n com fees , etc etc!!! plus got $4000 per anum for allowances! tts y now i dont know what to choose!
i shall draw up a pros n cons thing here (w/o tables though), and maybe u all can give me advice, if u all even read this blog at all.
MOE award pros:
tution fees
laptop fees
annual allowance of $4000
other approved fees (basically i pay for nothing except for food n transpot la)
guaranteed job
MOE award cons:
teach forever???(this one is enough to turn me off)
does not guarantee a overseas trip during studies
NTU double degree pros:
its a double degree
TCM-> niche market
can go china for last 2 yrs of my studies in Beijing Uni of TCM
NTU double degree cons:
dont know if i am guaranteed a job hen i graduate
no scholarship
thats all, dont tell me to follow my heart, cos im good at psycho-ing myself abt which course is best for me!
