I definately intend to work, but not too much in the expense of my studies. To be honest with you guys, i'll be doing my final year in Leeds as it is a transfer program. This year is crucial to me. I plan to study and study and nothing else until i've finished my exam. Between the completion of the exam and the graduation, i'll work and try to cover as much as possible.
And for information if any of you are interested, the UK sterling is currently 7 times the malaysian currency (RM). Say that a high street solicitor in the UK earns about 4k pounds per month, a similar standard malaysian lawyer would earn about RM 4k. If a plate of noodle is 4 pounds in the UK, it costs RM4 in malaysia.
So, for a malaysian, everything is 7x more expensive in the UK. In addition, the school fees for international students is about double, 7.9k pounds after minusing bursary. Only average or wealthier families cound send their children to the UK. Mine is financed by mortgaging the home, hehe.
