Bai mau So many years ago, back when | was finishing high school | had to make a very tough decision about what | should study at university the following year. The main difficulty that | was faced with at that time was that what I really wanted to study was architecture, however, unfortunately my grades in school weren't good enough for me to apply for that course so had a difficult decision to make about what else | was interested in studying. And then, to make matters worse, my second choice, which was Construction Management, was being cancelled the following year, so | then had to rethink my choice again! So, after weighing up the options and turning to my parents and career guidance counsellor at school for advice, | chose to study Civil Engineering, as it just seemed like the wisest decision after my other two choices were not possible. So, the following year | went off to university and began studying Civil Engineering, however, after my first year of studying | began to have second thoughts, so I then decided to change my course in my second year to Electrical Engineering. | then went on to finish that course, however many years later I did feel some regret towards that decision as ultimately what | wanted to study was related to building design and construction. 97 This document is authorized for use only by Sao Nguy'n ( toansaa2907.gpa gmail.com | 0972703126 | Order number:95/2/2020-07-06).

To describe briefly about my sister, she was a smart girl and she performed excellently in most of her subjects and got some significant achievements at high school. Therefore, she had the ability to study in many different universities. That was why choosing one university to study was a tough decision for my sister, because she had to weigh up so many options. At first, she was about to trust her intuition and basically chose the one she felt like it. But after spending some days rethinking, she had second thoughts. As this would be an important milestone in her life, she didn’t want to make any mistake at all. Then, she decided to turn to. me for advice. | then told her to follow her passion and choose the major which came with good career prospect in the future. Instead of making a snap decision, she spent nearly a month to reach the final decision. My sister decided to study English Teaching at the University of Education because she had long been passionate about becoming a teacher in the future. Also, by teaching English, she could actually earn a lot of money as well. Till now, my sister is very satisfied with the decision she made that day, 98 This document is authorized for use only by Sao Nguy'n ( toansaa2907.gpa gmail.com | 0972703126 | Order number:95/2/2020-07-06).
