Hi based on my previous post, i'm actually foundation science student. I like being a science student since its kinda like my fav subj. But just recently i found out that actually i really prefer myself being in theatre and music. I once played in a theatre and i perform really well ! I also take part in dancing mostly traditional since primary school untill uni. Not to forget i also can play violin quite well. (I quit during y3/y4 yamaha). And just recently I joined the choir festival representing my uni. I just couldn't see myself in the future being a life science student. I'm taking life science cause im the only daughter that take science in the sibling and my parents obviously rejected my idea of me being a theatre or music students. But i really really found myself having fun joined those things. So should I just continue taking science in the future or change it during degree. Or should i just joined any organization or club in the uni while im continuing the science subj for degree. Asking for a suggestion 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I am a 3rd year student in a public uni, currently enrolling in a course that i totally lost the motivation to do it and wanted to change to other courses. A little backstory, I passed my SPM with flying colours, and went to matriculation. After matriculation i chose a course that my parents disagree on it, since it is not a hot subject such as engineering/medicine/law. All i can say is that i chose a course that went outside of science stream (i was a science student during spm and matriculation). After 4 semesters into university, job worries struck. I went into deep deep depression, had very strong regrets towards my decision and ruminated about what my parents said about choosing courses and almost felt like i was going psychotic due to the depression. My mental health went down the drain and even had thoughts to kms. Currently on anti-depressants and taking the semester off. I feel like I could not finish this course since i totally lost the motivation/passion and wanted to change courses after i get better. Had tried changing courses in the uni itself but was not accepted. The only way I could think of now is to drop out and reapply again through UPU. Has anyone ever done this before? And was it successful? I am scared that UPU wont accept applicants who had history of dropping out. Really need your 2 cents on this

hi! i'm looking for disabled/OKU students in malaysian universities (any but especially public unis), or anyone who handles any sort of department/unit/etc. for this sort of stuff.

i basically want to ask for some insights/advice, but i don't know anyone else in similar situations, or anyone who has any knowledge/experience with this. i can't tell if my experience is the standard experience, or if they are problems that i should be concerned about.

And why is there only 3 courses out of like what 30+ course available in usm? Impossible

hi everyone, if u guys aware 07 only have a month before spm and i just wanna know what is the best thing i could do to improve my study/gred. i got only 5a on trial and i already started studying back right after the trial. is 9a+ is possible? i feel like i definetly didnt grind enough on my trials. if 9a+ is possible, what should i do to make it a reality?

I am doing my first year first sem in IIUM as a BBA UG student almost 3 months has passed my exams are about to start i literally have no idea what went in my classes i have never worked on anything so far i just got to this university and i feel like dying i literally have no idea what to do who knows i might kms i just wanna know how to live here in my perspective everything sucks here

So I'm an international student hoping to pursue a BA in psych from Taylor's. It honestly seems pretty great to me and I'm eligible for a good amount of scholarship there too. My goal is to apply abroad for postgraduate.

Now, I've heard many instances of people telling others to not go there. But I've also seen many people say the lecturers for the psych department are great. Cost is thankfully not an issue for me and to me it seems the university is good from rankings and their curriculum. Also the 3 years honors would help me apply abroad to countries like the us or uk. I get the reputation is of a party uni with apparently the uni being full of rich brats but is it really that bad? I can't help but wonder if people are exaggerating.

So im an international student going to uni malaysia soon, and i need help deciding something.

I have a pc, and i want to know wether i should get a tablet for uni or a a budget laptop (for portability), or should i sell my pc and get a mid level laptop?

My concerns about the pc is maintenance, since the weather there is humid (and i heard there is alot of sand too), it would be hard to keep cleaning it so it doesnt clog

I want to come to Malaysia and do a Master in Data Science course. I want to know how much it would cost as a total including fees, accommodation and generally all expenses per annum

May i know what are the differences between computer sc and information tech? Is cs more complicated? But why some uni use It(cybersecurity) and another uni, comp sc (cybersecurity) isnt it same?

wanna know you guys’ experience studying/graduating/life after. generally, is CS/IT worth it in UTP? im interested in computer science.

I am business Economic student, but i also in a double degree program for Mathematic Management.

Title says it, it begins with directionless choices after failing to get TESL, and I forced myself to stay in the course that UPU selected for me, thinking it be better, thinking I can handle it, folowing the flow. After all, Economy was easy in Matriculation. But I realize I screwed up, and I facing another 3 semester in a course I barely have interest in, let alone capable of doing (yea, im sucks hard).

Im in 5th semester, halfway through the first subject of my second degree, but its hard as hell for me. I wanna cut my losses, but idk how.

Im also a very troubled student, and its very bad that I never talked with my PA (Academic Advisor), not ever. Only on day one of my first semester. Now im scared to tell her that I screwed up and wanna quit, despite that its too late (it has been very recommended to drop by 4th semester, I was hesitant for some reason,)

I really wanna drop, i wanna go to workforce despite my 3.2 CGPA. Yes, Im bad at economy too, im bad at studying in general.

Im lost, I know I screwed up really bad, and I needed help. I already resigned if there is no other choice but to continue, i vowed to study harder and better. But I am still actively seeking a way out.

Any thoughts, advice...maybe support? Any would help.

Truly, i wish I did different in the past, but its too late now...unless its still possible to change.

I be honest with you guys, I always wanted to go Psychology, and I am very interested in HR right now, all day everyday I wished that I switched to HR, its killing me. I also clueless about my Internship, The only excuseable reason I am taking this degree is because... To expand my job scope. Bad mistake. Shoulda pick my level.

Hello!

I'm an international student planning to transfer next year (probably July to October intake) and am planning to take Diploma in Physiotherapy.

So far the schools that I'm eyeing to apply are:

• UOW Glenmarie
• MAHSA
• INTI University
• UOC

May I know what other schools would you recommend applying to?

Also, I've already inquired with UOW and they gave me a quotation. May I ask what is the "Performance Assurance Fee" for?

Thanks a lot and hope to hear from you guys soon!

I bet I look silly af asking this on reddit, but my groupmates are useless. I'm not asking for the answers exactly, just what aspects of ultra vires should I be focusing on here. Hope I can get some help here.

im a 16yo (08 liner) currently studying at MRSM and im super confused how i should further my studies.

First, i planned to study in UM under medic bcoz i planned to be a psychiatrist. Thought about it for a while, and i rly dont think im suited to be in the healthcare field.

On a whim, I’ve researched some courses and it seems to me like computer science/software engineering is a good field since i have basics in coding. Plus, my math is better than my sciences sooo

UTP seems rly cool to me just bcoz its a private uni tbh and also the name, but is compsci recognised yet? Is it worth it to study compsci in UTP? or should i pick a different uni/field since i don’t really have an interest, i just want a course that has decent job opportunities

any feedback helps!

Almost exactly a year ago, I posted about wanting to switch unis to study to law on r/Malaysia (I forgot about the existence of this sub back then). Here’s an update, one year later.

I managed to get a four flat CGPA for my foundation studies, but at the cost of my study-life balance. For starters, I had only a few coursemates whom I can consider friends, and we weren’t that close, either. Next, throughout my foundation studies, I probably spent more time in the library than in my room. On weekdays, I would usually stay in the library from after classes until 9pm+ and take the bus back to my hostel at 10pm. I would just be studying in the library the whole day. Besides, almost every single day, I’d order food delivery because it’s faster than walking to the cafeterias to eat.

I thought that if I was able to procure a good CGPA during this one year, there would be no more pain and suffering (read: STEM) after the end of it. But guess what? No. Here’s why.

I applied for degree programmes via UPU and my uni’s internal system. Did not apply via public uni open channels because I told myself I’d buy a car with the money I saved. For the former, as my foundation programme was considered “Foundation IPTS”, I couldn’t apply for Law. So, initially, I wanted to put USM’s Bachelor of Arts in Translation and Interpretation, a few other social sciences programmes which are also my interests, as well as CS (Yes, Computer Science. It’s STEM but at least it does not have physics nor chemistry, and it has less maths than engineering. But just like engineering, money was the main reason why I included it), but in the end I gave in to my parents’ negative comments regarding social sciences (big mistake) and ended up putting in only CS & engineering programmes for both UPU and my uni’s internal system applications.

So now, I’m currently taking EE, I major I have little to no interest in, and every day feels like a punishment. I can barely understand mathematics and circuit theory, and the way knowledge is imparted in uni only makes it worse. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate my lecturers, it’s just that I dislike the lecture system. I once even spent an entire day staring at the circuit theorems textbook but failed at understanding it at all. People tell me the suffering is worth it because once I enter the workforce I can work my way up the corporate ladder and earn big bucks as an engineer, but the thing is, I don’t even want to work as an engineer. Engineering jobs sound so soul-sucking. A few weeks ago we had a talk by a speaker from a semiconductor company and the highlights of the talk include semiconductor engineers being overworked in a confined room to the point that their meals have to be brought to them (Sounds familiar as ordering food delivery every day? Seems like I’m already halfway there) and also some of them literally passing away in their office cubicles. Meanwhile when it comes to life in general, I can feel my communication skills quickly disintegrating like biodegradable plastic bags to the point where even typing simple sentences or partaking in simple conversations IRL can sometimes be a major chore for me. I also can't enjoy things anymore. Even joining extracurricular activities or taking a short walk around campus, the things that are supposed to help me unwind, make me feel stressed and left behind in my studies. At this point I’m not even living anymore, I’m just barely existing.

I am currently contemplating what on earth I am supposed to do about this. Should I just suck it up, go through four years of EE, and then try my best to get a non-engineering job after graduation? Or change programmes if I fail this semester? My university is more STEM-focused so there are very few non-STEM degree programmes. Only TESL and Urban Planning seem attractive so far.

TL;DR: Had the opportunity to run away from STEM and pursue something I actually love but did not. Now I regret.

So i’m going to sit for MUET next year and i have like 3 months to prepare, to be honest my English is not that good and i also have trouble making essays and i have a bad grammar (and yeah i know the basic one) so can any of you suggest the books that i should i buy and another thing is i don’t really know how to structure my sentences btw my spm engligh is B2 (( , Thank you for helping me and please be nice 🫶🏼

so i’m planning to apply at Southern University College at Johor Bahru as an international student.Please tell me everything i need to know before applying. I would be really grateful.🙏

May I ask, if anyone have experience going for Summer or Winter school in Korea in the recent years - did you enter with K-ETA? The website says we can do that but I just want to be sure.

hello. so this is the update on my previous post: https://www.reddit.com/r/malaysiauni/s/h16ZSoAfXY

i have interviewed my whole block and most of them got their stuff stolen too. some valuable stuff. the suspect is 100% the workers that came to paint our room. the problem is, they refuse to make reports to the college admin.

so i don't know what to do. the college wont care if i am the only one who reported it. this is frustrating as fuck. i don't plan to give up until justice is served.

I'm planning to take this issue to the uni administration and I'll contact the mpp too, but I don't know if it's gonna be worth it.
