Online learning advice

Hi all, I started to learn some courses from Udemy. questions is when watching tutorial videos, do u pause the video and follow what the instructor does then resume then pause then resume again and repeat or do u watch the entire video first trying to understand, then practice it yourself? Thing is, some tutorials are way too long, I got bored and fell asleep... any advice? Does this sound similar to passive learning and active learning though btw?

Degree or practical/vocational/kemahiran?

Alex02 — Thu, 18 Jun 2020 17:39:00 +0800

I graduated diploma in business admin with cgpa 2.99 only, terrible. Business is considered easier compare to engineer/ law/ medicine etc.. somemore only DIPLOMA level...
When go interview asked me do u know what is this/that? do u know anything about marketing/acc? what do u know about this/that? do u know how to use this software? do u know what to do? During college time I don't really bother or concentrate in class, I just go there for attendance, didn't really pay attention, I passed because I just memorize instead of really really learn the course. I just cram everything instead of understand it, typical mindset of just pass graduate get cert can alr... after a while forgot everything

That's why like they said, sampah graduate... business admin is really not my interest in the first place, I took because parents nagging faster go study, I'm not sure what to study. I want to take mass comm but heard ppl say it's a useless course, easy pass, hobby degree only. Better take business because job prospect very wide and in demand e.g sales, marketing, acc, finance, hr, admin, management, development.

Now I plan to take vocational in IT since I grew up playing computer games so naturally/ stereotypically I have interest with computers related work. With my diploma result alr like this what more to say if degree... scared if I take degree I halfway cannot tahan/ fail etc. Ppl say if one is not the study or academic type better don't go uni/col, because will fail, waste money and time. But then others say now degree is the minimum alr... why vocational? It's a lower inferior level than degree..

Advice?

I'm afraid I'll make the wrong choice

Why admins are female only

Alex02 — Fri, 05 Jun 2020 16:10:55 +0800

I was wondering why most of job vacancies for admin says female only/preferred? Double standard? Traditional? Why not guys?

graduated, now what?

Alex02 — Mon, 30 Mar 2020 01:49:19 +0800

I just graduated last year nov with diploma in business administration.

Now im thinking of taking diploma in Information technology at politeknik

is it a good move? because to be honest im not really into business administration actually, i just took it because last time after spm don't know what to study, was considering mass comm but then keep hearing ppl say mass comm no future wan la, very easy course compare to medicine/law/doctor/engineer, only play2 student take mass comm, as long as u good looking muka cantik can work mass comm related field alr... so i hesitated, then other ppl say why not take business? job prospect very wide after graduation

thing is business admin is not really what i want, i just took it cus ppl say job prospect very wide, i didn't do research on business admin, just main hantam saja... now graduated, interview for admin/secretary job, notice this are female dominated industry, majority are females, felt a bit uncomfortable, u know la females banyak hal like gossip backstab judgemental sensitive fussy nagging lah, some more this course so common, so many competitors zzz

even my course mate also complained boring, just sit in office data entry, filling, report, paperwork punya job scope, after finish work ntg to can surf internet or curi play game walao, is this the reason why desk job like admin/hr/accountant majority are females? very relaxing nature therefore gaji also not that high that's why not many guys? Us guys need to earn more than girls traditionally cus more dominant in nature so mostly guys dont prefer work in office am i correct? guys prefer work outdoor or technical side cus gaji higher correct?

regret last time after spm being ignorant, didn't do proper research...

now thinking of taking diploma in Information technology in politeknik cus im interested in computing, my laptop and desktop old alr got many problems need to service like speaker rosak, noisy fan, battery kembang, want to upgrade ram, and gpu, survey on monitors and computer specs, i even watched the whole youtube video of disassembling and assembling cpu hardware components, survey specs without skipping any part surprisingly, i buka my own cpu and laptop to clean fan etc, so i thought of studying information technology cus can become IT technician

Good move or not? wasting time? should continue degree better? just straight work as admin no need continue study better?

what should I do now?

Alex02 — Sun, 29 Mar 2020 03:07:46 +0800

Hi all, I wanted to ask for any advice on regarding my future path.

I just graduated last year Nov 2019, diploma in Business Administration. Now not sure do what

Admin industry majority are females, u know la females at work, gossip lah backstab lah sensitive lah drama lah judgemental lah, fussy lah

Not just admin, accounting and hr also same, female dominated

I regret took B.A.... the reason I took B.A is because last time after spm I really dont know what to study, i posted my spm results online on eduadvisor
Bm: d
Bi: b
Moral: c
Sej: e
Mx: d
Sc: c
Geo: g
Psv: d
Pdg: g
my cgpa 2.99
and the counselor replied: "You can consider Mass Communication, Hotel Management or Tourism Management. If you like cooking then you can consider Culinary Arts or if you are artistic, you can consider Multimedia Design, Graphic Design or Animation."

First i have mass comm in mind so i did some research on it, but then I found out that ppl say mass comm no future punya, very easy course, only play2 ppl take it, as long as u muka cantik and good looking can go in or work already no need go uni, not professional like engineer, law, doctor or accounting

So I hesitated lo, then they say take business because business after graduate got very wide job prospect, so i took it lo even though im not interested some more I got G in my perdagangan... really regret for my ignorance when I was 18, not taking life seriously, main hantam saja... sorry...

Now graduated, im lost, want to continue degree cus ppl say nowadays majikan tengok degree, diploma useless alr, but my dad not encourage cus financial problem, cannot afford keep paying, now im paying back my diploma ptptn rm14k.. if continue degree another K debt...

I kinda interested in computers hardware, i even watched the whole youtube video without skipping any part surprisingly LOL
then i survey computer course need to be good in math at least credit ah damn... see my spm math i got D alr
but i came up w a training institute offering this course without needing credit in math and that is PPKS, some sort of practical or vocational type school, they have different levels

any advice on what should I do? should I enroll in the vocational sch? Don't want later regret
