I know with my grades, I can't make it into NUS, not unless a miracle happen (which is highly unlikely). I am opening my options to studying in Australia, and also to study Biological Science at NTU. Should I make a selfish choice, by going to Australia? 6 years, or 4 years if I decide to go for a graduate entry course, is definitely not short. I don't want to be selfish, I can't bear to leave him, there are somethings I cannot put down. I asked him what if I go overseas, he say like that lor, there is nothing he can do, only thing is to wait. 6 years...I don't know. But I will still apply for NUS, hopefully miracles do happen. If it doesn't, I shall do 2 years medicine in Australia, try for the MBBS-phD course (which is very difficult to get in), study very very hard during the 2 years, hopefully will be one of the 10 who gets into the course, and come back to Singapore to finish the rest of the 6 years. This is probably the ideal. I want to go overseas to see and experience the life, I like foreign cultures, the style of teaching, the people and everything. But I don't know whether I am brave enough to study there for 6 years if the ideal doesn't work. I don't know....I am in a total dilema...What should I do?
