WHY SCIENTISTS WILL NEVER MAKE AS MUCH MONEY AS BUSINESS EXECUTIVES

A rigorous mathematical proof.
Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power
Postulate 2: Time is Money

a. Work/Time=Power

Since Knowledge=Power, and Time=Money,
b. Work/Money=Knowledge

Solving for money,
Work/Knowledge=Money

So, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity,
regardless of the amount of Work done.

Conclusion: The less you know, the more you make.

Hello~ I am Chui Theng, a friend of Jing Jie.I am from malaysia  too..i am his junior.

hello :D

I got the asean scholarship to futher study in Ntu.I got the course biological science.

congrats yeah!

So, Jing Jie recommend me you to ask u sth.

no prob...

I wanna ask whether this course is good o nt in ur opinion?

course offered is alright, better than NUS and m'sian uni. but really depends on wat u wanna do after graduation.

Is it very hard?

certainly better quality comes with heavier workload, but overall it's still manageable.

How r the lecturer?

almost all are helpful. up to own effort to ask questions as they wont go all the way to help like secondary school teachers. students must be more proactive.

How about the working opportunity? acording to the letter they sent me, they mentioned that the working opportunity is good lar...But i am not sure.

haha...sure they wil say that cos they need to attract students mah.
if wanna do research i.e. being a scientist, this course will be good. else if u wanna work right after graduation, there will be quite limited choices as our degree is a general science degree but we will still be able to go into more general sector e.g. banking, sales, teaching, project officer in labs with salary of a normal graduate.

Hows the course? IS it interesting ?

the course is well structured and it's much better now cos u wil b the 6th batch, things are more messy for the 1st 2 batches of students.
i feel that its quite interesting cos i dont like engineering. really depend on ur interest.

a Lot of lab work?

i dont think its much cos most students wil rush to be attached to labs during the holz but again, it's up to own effort and interest.

IS it very stressful taking this course?

manageable stress la but all courses are on equal stress level in s'pore.

Is it difficult to achieve 3.5 mark every sem?

shouldnt be a problem for m'sian scholars. dont worry :)

act i apply pharmacy for the local uni, however, i got this, i think this a also a good opportunity too...but not very understand about this course..so confused!!

i understand. there's a senior of the exact case as u but she chose here. all boil down to wat u want to do n ur interest. im not sure but think pharmacy is considered as professional course while bio sciences is a general degree course. so if u take up pharmacy, perhaps u can work right after grad. but then, try to ask urself, izit all about money? wat would b ur aim in life? for some, researching and discovering things are their passion...wat about yours?

one more, NTU bio sciences involved more about cellular work. so just to prepare u if u r coming to join our SBS family. perhaps u can also ask Zhao Qin whom i believe could b ur senior. good to always have a few different views but just dont let them confuse u. i know its tough for u but do make the right decision and carry on with it...

Hope u can give me some opinion..thanks a lot.

my pleasure ^^
