Issue : Do we know ourselves??
Tuesday, August 08, 2006

Image Hosted by ImageShack.usTime for a reality check. Are we doing something that suits our personality? or Have we simply indulged into a path because of other factors including peer pressure?

While we hear grunts every year when top notch students fail to get medical seats in the Public Universties, how could one be sure that these top notch students would actually make better doctors as compared to their averaged scored counterparts?? Has grades become the sole indicator of one's ability?


While medicine and scientific research are highly looked up on, will every student be meticulous and patient enough to be one? Will every student have enough wit to become an outspoken lawyer?or be able to generate a flair for writing to make a cut as a journalist??

As a student, one may go through many conflicts while choosing a future path. These would include not knowing which path to choose, not knowing which path suits you the best and definitely the outer pressure. Some might bluntly make a desicion only to regret much later. It seriously takes a reality check before people stop beleiving that they were born with a stetoscope or a black robe. Take ace director, M.Night Shyamalan for an instance. Like many Asian parents, his parents wanted him to be a doctor. However, he followed his heart and is now a famous director in Hollywood, his achievements should have made his parents proud.


Now the question is HOW WOULD YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE BEST SUITED TO?

This time, lets hear ideas from the siswa members. What are your views on this issue?
