- Should I just take a graduate diploma or a MBA or a MSc in Marketing or a MComm?
- Which University is good, since I never really believe in private schools issuing overseas universities' certificates?
- Or what about courses jointly offered by those professional organizations like Marketing Institute of Singapore and NUS?
- UK universities? Australian universities?
W got to know that I am entertaining the thought of pursuing a MBA and suggested that we should take it together. Especially since she is planning to start end this year or early next year, depending on the next intake.
And she started to get all excited and said then it would be good to be tutorial mates again - after 10 years. (damn. that's a pretty long time ago.)
The extent of her excitement goes as far as a suggestion on how we should study and help each other out in the presentations or projects amid our work schedule.
But what she forgot is her impression of me was that of 10 years ago. While I think she is still as aggressive as before, I think I am honestly losing steam.
One thing I realised is most marketing students suck at financial accounting or financial management. Hah.
While she was rattling on and on, I found myself asking...
- Would I still have the energy to burn midnight oil for assignments or do tutorials?
- Would I still be so disciplined to study after work and burn my weekends burying myself in notes?
- Would I then turn into a grumpy lady, if I find my free time burnt? As of it is now, I find myself throwing temper at myself if I don't have enough own me-time or rest.
But then again, if some of my friends have done it, some are doing it now, and can do it... I should have no problem, right? It still boils down to discipline, determination and time management, right?
Oh well... I think I better start to go back and read the brochures more carefully again...
