Your words might be true and useful eyeballtz.
Well maybe for now if i had the chance to be a pilot then i won't hesitate to grab it straight away as im afraid that i wont be able to be a pilot forever,besides maybe im not an electrical person since i found that electrical engineering course is kinda hard for me,sigh
Dont sigh. It's a good thing to go for diploma first before pursuing for aviation. At least, when you apply for an airline sponsorship, you are much better than those SPM leavers. Of course, maturity does count. And about MARA, there's no point to hope unless our country really recover and if they keep taking school leavers. There's no competition at all. Almost everyone in Malaysia has SPM and that is where they got screwed up by those overwhelming applications. If they require higher requirement of education, I believe that these jobless problem wont happen.It's just an idea. Chances to be a pilot are easy if you have education nowadays and of course, if you are mature enough. It does not promise you, but at least there is a chance. I myself holds a degree in Robotic and Mechatronic engineering and I do not think it's hard because I love machines. But hell yeah, I love aviation much more than engineering and I prefer to be a monkey in the cockpit.
