AUSMAT Career day 2009

On the 11 January this year, Career Day, an annual activity for every batch of intec's ausmat was held. It was very informative, though the fact that we just started Year 12 early this year, and we still have an obscure view about what is going to happen next in Sem 2 and 3, and of course whats waiting in OZ. The President of SAMSA board of Ausmat, Poji gave a talk how to and how important it is to survive Ausmat and score high TER, especially for courses which required TER of 90.00 and above, like mine. En Azlan, from Ausmat 6, now an architect in Hijjaz Kasturi gave us a talk about the embarkment to career world.

I never thought Career Day would be this fun, especially meeting the seniors part. totally inspiring. Why inspiring? Simply because they have been in our very shoes and therefore they understand very well how do we feel now and in the future 10 months. How great it is to see how they have successfully pursuing their studies in G8 universities.

One of the senior, Kak Izah, a medicine student in Monash (if im not mistaken) scored TER of 98. another biotech senior from Melbourne whose name i forgot, scored TER of 89. Lucky engineering students because lotsa seniors who showed up that day were engineering students (including Poji). And not too bad for my course, a senior showed up. He's studying in University of Curtin in Perth, pursuing his third year this march. i had quite a talk with him and it was very inspiring. Seriously. He opt for specialist maths during his ausmat and he once failed in spec maths, but still scored TER of above 90.00 (he refused to mention his exact TER).

Something to ponder, why do i see only Malay seniors?
