This is really important not only for the selection of courses after SPM, but also for you to live a life full of challenges. You should be aware that you’re not a high school student again. There are some tips that can help you to choose the appropriate course…- Know your own self…
Do you really know your self??? Basically, you should be aware of your strengths and where your weaknesses. So, you must make your own decision for every choice you make. Know what you want and know what you need. This is a serious matter involving your future.
- Identify interests and abilities
One thing that should not be done by the students is based on trend/flow in choosing careers and abilities. This is because the interests and abilities or your people others are not the same.
Each individual has its own special and different character. You may want to list all the appropriate to your interests and skills. Then, get information about the careers. From there, you may be able to filter out some careers that are not in accordance with needs and preferences.
- Decisions based on salary levels in the careers
Some students also not choose courses based on interests, but they just look at the wealth of careers that will be pursued. This may be effective for them because of high salary can increase their motivation and enthusiasm to succeed in education.
However, you should also evaluate whether you are eligible for the course is based on your skills. If you do not qualify or do not have any skills required in the course, the issue of salary may be pushed to the edge first.
- Believe in yourself
Many students do not self-confident with the ability to develop themselves further. You have to believe in yourself and your ability as this is one of the known self, and when you’ll know yourself, your confidence will increase the power automatically.
If you have a firm grip and are not changing, you will be successful in whatever you do.
- Discuss with parents and counselors
Views of parents getting wise, but beware!
Because some parents may evaluate career choices and to associate with money. Although they only want to help, some of them may unconsciously influence you to choose a career that gives more money and prestige because they were used to link the money to live a happy and fun.
Besides that, you get advice from outside professionals such as career counselors and teachers. They can be a source of information about the career of your choice, and provide unbiased advice in choosing in the course.
- Take a step towards selection of courses
If you are still doubt and confusion about the selection courses in university, you might want to take courses that interest you first minor which covers the basic principles before you choose a major course. In this way, you have more time to make choices and perhaps the minor courses you choose can open your mind to make a decision.
When you are sure of your choice, take the next steps for entering these courses, such as filling in the form correctly. For a Muslim, praying Istikharah and trusts God for the choices made.
"What is it that you like doing? If you don’t like it, get out of it, because you’ll be lousy at it. You don’t have to stay with a job for the rest of your life, because if you don’t like it you’ll never be successful in it." - Lee Iaccocca
