from what am i having for lunch today to should I further my studies in Australia?
Being indecisive, i finally sat down and analyze every possible options I have in order to graduate with a degree.
Option 1
Stay back in Monash Malaysia for another semester and apply for an exchange to Monash Berwick in Melbourne. Stay in Berwick for a year and graduate in Malaysia.
Pros
- get to save on tuition fees
- might be able to get allowance from the university while I am there
Cons
- it's outside the city, might be inconvenient for living
- probably would have to stay in Hostel which would have restrictions

Accept Curtin's offer in Perth

sigh... I am really being indecisive!
There is so many options.. but not all available yet tou.
I am tempted with Option 1 and 3.
Option 2 and 4 is still pending.
and as for Option 3, is university ranking important? It wouldn't make sense that I am already enrolled in the group of eight, and i transfer myself out to a university that is not even ranked in the top 20 in Australia, right? ><
but Curtin's School of Business is ranked 12 in Australia, while Monash is ranked 5, followed by UWA at rank 7..
Anyway,
it's 18th October today!
HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY
