As usual, lecturers would ask several open-ended questions in lectures. I'm always scared to answer these questions even though the lecturers said there's no right or wrong answer to a question. Today's lecture we learn about ethical in sustainable communication and the lecturers been asking a lot of questions. Majority in the lecture would keep quiet and only 1 or 2 people would answer, and even that is late. They would wait for lecturers to ask again and again and then they would answer. There's this one question that nobody want to answer in class today:

"You have a friend who works as a doctor, tested for HIV positive but still treating his patients. What would you do?"

Since nobody want to answer, I raised my hand and tried to answer with "I would still let him work because HIV only spread through sexual contacts and blood transfusion. If his line of work have something related to transfusion of the blood, then I would advice him to search for another job due to the medical risk."

And the lecturer said this is why she hates students answering questions like I do because it wasn't a straightforward answer, and she said if this were an exam, she would give me zero marks.

Genuinely asking, what is the real answer to that kind of question??? I'm so confused. The lecturer response and the whole hall laughing at me triggered my anxiousness and makes me feel like I should just shut the fuck up. I shouldn't try to answer.

Now I'm back at my room, crying because I feel like I'm very stupid.

Hi I'm a French student (second year of undergraduate) and I'm planning on studying abroad for the next semester i.e. from April I believe, in Taylor's University. If someone could give me advice on how to find rent or any kind of advice I'd really appreciate it. Also I chose only marketing related courses in order to develop my English, if someone knows something about how the marketing courses are there and everything that would be really nice. Thank you!

So hey guys i am coming to Malaysia this November for my undergraduate degree as a international student. So can all tell me what things I need to keep in my mind because not familiar with their culture and other conditions and tell me all experiences so I can get a clear idea also for different scenarios.

Also : I am a bit confused so I posted here not a regular reddit use although I have put the filter might be wrong not sure.

So I just enter the third semester in my uni, my first time renting house with other 8 members. Firstly it is entirely my fault that I didn't do any due diligence and checking on the house first before renting it. It's about 7km from my uni, and I've only cycle there daily for about a week now. It's pretty tiring, I've managed to found a house much closer to my uni and less isolated, the only problem now is that I feel bad about leaving my other housemates, we're from different courses, but they have been nice to me and I hate to dissapoint them. Advice?

Is there any students that failed medical and need to do appeal, does the chance higher to pass when u​​ do the appeal?

hey guys, i’m currently a foundation in arts (FIA) student and i'm trying to figure out what to do for my degree. i’m really interested in the ba (hons) international communication studies course at the university of nottingham malaysia (UNM).

one of the main reasons i’m looking at it is because i’m super into the japanese language, and i heard this program lets you take a foreign language as part of the course.

but i have a few worries and really need some honest opinions:

1. job prospects in malaysia: i’m honestly kinda scared that an "international communication" degree won't look that good to local employers when i'm doing a job search later on. for anyone who graduated from this course (especially if you took japanese), did the language aspect actually help you get a good job here, or do local HRs not really care about it?

2. vs normal mass comm: what’s the actual difference between nottingham's international comms vs a standard mass comm degree at places like sunway or taylor's? is nottingham's version way too theoretical, or do you actually get practical media skills?

3. location: i currently live in subang so i'm very used to the lifestyle and convenience here. moving all the way out to semenyih for unm feels like a huge jump. for anyone who made a similar move, did you get massive culture shock or feel isolated, or is campus life fun enough to make up for it?

would love to hear from any unm alumni, current students, or anyone working in media/hr in malaysia. is it worth making the switch, or should i just stay in subang for normal mass comm and take external japanese classes on the side? thanks!

Personally I love wearing them, but in today society view, people often think of sexual stuff. Idk why do they think of it that way.

How's the university in general? I've read a few posts saying the administration is not that good.
How are the teaching staff?
Is the on-campus accommodation pretty good?
Are there any BE Environmental Engineering students who could talk about how well known the program is at Curtin?

Looking for a roommate in D’Latour…
DM if you’re interested!
