Career Dilemma

Dear Sijupanta,

                      Instead of asking,  Is CUNY  good? or  Is NYC State good? I recomend you to do some research. Yes we need suggestion good or bad to evaluate but you shouldnt be racking up threads asking which is better and which is not. The best bet would be ask yourself and see what you think about it. Another part is to do a reasearch about the university. You can call up the career center and ask how many percentage of student got jobs in the particular major after graduating or How many joined for their masters? They keep all these data. Inquire about the scholarship etc etc. I even wonder if you have used the school searching tool link that I have provided you before? I applaud your hard work on your studies (being on a deans list) and working to keep yourself afloat. But the irony here is such an independent, educated and honest individual like you is asking for spoon feeding.

                    Once again do your homework and compare and contrast the schools. Dont be just another wolf  in the pack and do what your friends in the group do or tell you to do and take their suggestions solely. Its great that there are friends and they help you and you wanna be with them which does not mean that your limit your boundries and oppurtunities. It's time that you need to look out for yourself. I wish all the best in your future endeavour.


A thoughtful escapist,
