After asking for advice
and then announcing my
decision to go back to school in September 2000, I am now happy to report that exam results are out
and that I passed! This past year wasn't easy for me, in many aspects, but the outcome of the exam
has considerably improved my future career prospects, and I'm happy. Now, I just have to decide what
to do next: heading to university, or getting a job. I'll keep you all updated.

| Posted by badl on 28-Jun-2001 22:00 GMT | Well i guess i will be the only one who says get a job, don't go to university.
From my experience of university: One under takes a number of years of study
whose teaching is based on theory, professors teaching unproven theory or
models, who's concepts most of the time have not been proven/practiced in the
business community.
I found having left university and entering the business world, that alot of
the things taught to myself and class collegues were not true, what clients
want is completly different from the utopian ideal they teach.
This however is not necessary a bad thing, it was my expectations or
beliefs that society placed upon me which false, they gave me an incorrect
outlook on the advantages of university and what it would do for me once i
got a REAL job ;)
but hell if you want to go into business, ya got to be ruthless... :)
p.s it matters not which path you take, for either one will teach you
alot about your self. |
