GPA is jus a no & yet its power/influences is so great

today, was further enhanced tt my perception had been right...

academic grades (gpa) really did play a role for future job applications. esp when d degree is tie w d honors... & if get 3rd class & below, may s well don further ur studies...

haiz... i noe i'd made a serious mistake yrs ago. i shld jus b satisfied w my poly dip. though not excellent results, at least i can get to ve a 'decent' job. at least i was called to go for interviews... jus tt i'd no choice but to reject SGH then due to d SARS case & dad forbid me go. at least w tt kind of grades, company do ask me go for interview & i still can get to choose d place to work at.

anw, even though i noe my stand (chances extremely slim), i was told tt employer will 1st see academic grades & so they will jus dump my application away no matter hw gd i can work in d lab. Sob sob

i noe theory impt but if u r to work in d lab, lab skills & understandin of d experiment & hw to proceed is impt oso. if w jus theory, den not gd at lab skills oso no use. but i gotta face reality. d harsh reality.

i can try to enhance my resume w my hands-on skill but i wonder hw far can it take me... anw, was told to buck up & stop d 'snowball' fr rollin. so easier said than done... but wat to do? sighed... guess gotta start 'pullin' my hair again & try my best to chong further. if not,...

well, d most impt i guess is to be able to get a gd start to capture d employer esp w gd gpa. if they dump away my application, no matter hw much i can do practically oso no use cos they oso wont get to find out.

gpa, gpa, gpa, u r jus a no yet ur power/influence is so strong. left 2 sem of examinable modules & 1 sem of FYP to pull up my socks. if not, i really don noe y i press on... i hope my efforts will really pay off...
