Road To TARC -2

I am one year behind my friends of my age.In case some of you are still wondering how and why i am left behind,here's the answer.If you already knew what happened or not interested to know,skip the next 3 paragraphs.

I applied for TARC's Diploma in Multimedia Design last year (2006)which is only availble in KL's Main Campus.I was offered a place in the college but i decided not to go as Polytechnic's course fee is very much cheaper than TARC.Polytechnic's 1st intake is in July and i had to wait until mid-May 2006 to find out whether im offered a place or not.By the time i knew that my application was rejected it was too late to head back to TARC.

So i decided to wait for Polytechnic's following intake which is January this year.It was at that point when i started to work.After working in Megamall's camera shop (KY DIGITAL IMAGE) for some time i decided to switch my diploma course from Multimedia to Marketing and i applied for the Marketing diploma course as my 1st choice.I dont know what should be the 2nd so i just randomly selected Insurance.

By December 2006 i was again disappointed when my 1st choice was rejected but this time,my 2nd choice was offered.Diploma in Insurance for 3 years in Polytechnic??? It doesnt look right at all.By then i had not much options but to enrol to TARC.At one point i applied for TARC's January intake which is only offered in the main campus.But after i reconsider it,I finally came up with a decision to study in Penang's TARC in Tanjung Bungah.And the decision this time IS final.

What really brings me to TARC is its 'Quality and Affordable Education' which is written in the front page of last year's booklet.It is affordable but im not too sure about its quality.

This year's booklet doesnt look any better compared to last year's.The service provided by TARC's booth at the Education Fair Penang 2007 was quite terrible too.

They are lucky that i have already made up my mind to study in TARC.

Now,time to choose which course to study.I wasnt sure which course to take between Diploma in Market and Diploma in E-Commerce & Marketing. After thinking,asking,considering... i chose E-Commerce & Marketing.Why?
