If there are no other options left and public university is my only choice, I will also just accept what I am offered. Because then, the next thing to a bright future is self-determination. <strong>pelf: Exactly! Self-determination and self-descipline :)</strong> Yvy: I agree with you also.

We all know how tough it is to get in as it is but to be fussy, choosy, picky n insistent for a certain Uni....there is a certain extend to it. We are have to make sacrifices & I'm not here to judge but reality is...it's a take it or leave it situation. Sometimes like it or not, beggars cant be choosers, imho. <strong>pelf: I think we're all on THIS side of the story :) Yes, beggars can't be choosers, but a smart "beggar" will grab the opportunity and turn it into something "great".. One day.. One fine day..</strong> Yvonne, you have some good point but I think Pelf does too.

We all know how tough it is to get in as it is but to be fussy, choosy, picky n insistent for a certain Uni….there is a certain extend to it. We are have to make sacrifices & I’m not here to judge but reality is…it’s a take it or leave it situation. Sometimes like it or not, beggars cant be choosers, imho.

pelf: I think we’re all on THIS side of the story :) Yes, beggars can’t be choosers, but a smart “beggar” will grab the opportunity and turn it into something “great”.. One day.. One fine day..

They can’t study well in courses that they don’t like.

pelf: This I agree, no doubt..

If only we could apply to these public universities individually, so if one uni can’t offer us the course we prefer, we can always try other unis.

pelf: Unfortunately, our “efficient government system” does not allow that..

The first case you mentioned, about the girl who is reluctant to leave her mother… I prefer not to act self-righteous lor. We will never know the kind of relationship that the mother and child has. If I were the girl, I would solve the problem on my own and not bring it to the press because it’s not the government’s fault.

pelf: Exactly! If little things like this are being highlighted in the press, I am sure one of these days we will chance upon a “story” about some guy who’s experiencing constipation and blames the government for making the floor of his house so hard..

A lot of people wants to study medicine, but I wonder if all of them are really keen on it. A friend of mine who is now studying medicine in Russia, said that students go all the way there by hook or by crook, but only to end up not liking medicine and waste money away.

If you want to be charitable and save lives, there are many ways to do it. I’m surprised to hear people saying they want to become doctors to help people, when they don’t even act helpful at home.

pelf: I think so too.. If these people are REALLY keen to become doctors to help people, they would go ahead despite being sent to another university not of their choice..
