Your choice of course will change your life. Many students find it difficult to assess the different courses on offer and to choose one that best suits their needs.
There are various reasons for this:
- Uncertainty regarding their own interests and skills Difficulty setting priorities
- desire to keep their options open
- General preconceptions regarding the job prospects of certain courses
- Opinions, assessments, pressure from friends and parents to make a particular decision that the candidate doesn't actually want
There are a number of ways to find your bearings in this wealth of choice, to find out more about individual courses, and to get help in making the right decision.
