Hi guys, it's been weeks since I last updated. Just to brief you guys about the things that I'm doing now. Basically class started early of the August. First semester would be something that we need to adjust to. About the courses that I'm doing, not to say that it's easy, it is still considered hard. I'm hesitating on whether to do the 1+4 Program or the 2+3 Program. Both have the same amount of years that we need to study in order to get a Bachelor's degree. Either way works for me. However, as what the guy from Cartisan's has mentioned that studying more years in the States gives u a different insight or even experiences others might not gain. To get into a university/college on the 1+4 Program, nothing much to be done actually. Just that I need to study extremely hard. And I have to take SAT I and II as well, SAT II which consists of at least 2 subjects. Seriously, this may not be my thing but I might just give my best and give it a try. What to say I'm already handling 5 subjects in school currently, in which part of the courses are time-consuming. I'd better plan out my time properly or else I'm gonna get stuck in between things that I wanna do.

Talking about the 1+4 Program, I will have to maintain at least 3.5 GPA to get into the college that I've chosen. Not only that, the application process is surely something you don't want to get involved in. Lots of things that you need to submit and deadlines to meet. I will have to take my SAT either in October or November if I am to fly over to the States in the fall next year. Most of the colleges have a deadline on 15 November for Early Decision and 1 January for Regular Decision. Double shot I would say just to make sure that we really get the college we want to. After listening to what my friends and the counselors have been saying, 1+4 might just be a better choice, though I'm still being indecisive. Hopefully everything would work out fine and go accordingly. Alright, tons of assignments to be completed! 3.5GPA, if the lecturers are kind enough, I might even score higher than that. =D
