Is studying life science worth it in Malaysia? Lots are ending up in sales rather than doing whatever their degree prepare them to do? Biomedicine is better? No clue about the job prospect. BTW, I don't mind sales ans I don't look down on them...but isn't getting a marketing degree better?

Currently using my friend's account. My friends says it's easy to ask opinion here. So, I am currently a graduate of Computer Science. I did terribly on my degree. Currently working in a small company. How to register for ACCA? I looked at the official website but couldn't really understand the process. I wish to self study for ACCA. Is it really hard? I can't go for tuition as I am working. I heard that we can get a degree from OBU by submitting a reseach project after completing f6. So, where can I submit it to? Sorry, newbie here. hehe.

GRE or GMAT ? Which one ?

candy_9330 — Mon, 19 Nov 2012 20:17:23 +0800

My sister is contemplating whether to take GMAT or GRE.

GRE
Advantage : Quant easier than GMAT's
Disadvantage : Verbal is difficult than GMAT's
Fee : Cheaper than GMAT

Vice versa for GMAT

How is the grading for GMAT or GRE? I can't seem to find much of info for this. My googling skills sucks, haha Are the score for each section (verbal, quant...etc) shown separately or as a whole?

I know that GMAT has only two centres while GRE has more. Are both the test available only by computer not paper in Malaysia?

What is software engineering? My friend study this at (Computer Sciense - Software Engineering). Is the job scope wide? My brother works as a programmer and he told me not to take this course cause it is quite difficult. Do I have to be good in Math? I see some forum they say software engineer are being paid peanuts at Malaysia. Some say the other way around, where they are being paid high salary in just short years. So which is the truth? How bout other branch of computer science like networking? How bout IT? I don't have a really deep understanding in these course. So I am from art stream can take this course in the future?
