Major WHUT.

So I have an exam tomorrow at 9am for the Associate Economics Researcher position.

When I sent my application via email, I thought that the HR of that company will not even look at my resume and sample works. Surprisingly, I received an email, telling me that they scheduled me for an exam. Shiz. I thought for a second: Should I pursue this? Economics?! WTH. Bahala na! I have no idea what kind of exam I will have tomorrow. Is it the usual Global Reasoning Test or is it something related to Economics? If it is the first one, then I have no problem. It'll be UPCAT all over again. If it is the latter, then that's where my major problem lies.

I am not an Economics graduate. My knowledge of Economics only includes the law of supply and demand, and Adam Smith's Laissez-Faire. That's all. I know little about jargons in Economics. And the only hard core economics unit that I had in the university was Economic Anthropology, which I enjoyed a lot (but gradually forgot about). I am not an expert, so to speak. But I have an interest in this field. Crap. How can I compete to those who have a degree in Economics or Business Econ?

What to do now? I don't want to fail in comparison to the other candidates... I guess I have no other choice but to study Economics now? Or I might as well rely on my fourth year high school memories of Economics.

    You are so sipag sa pagbblog, and so I will make sipag din in making comments. That was so conyo.haha

    1. You remind me of the first time I started blogging, Blogger platform pa gamit ko din nun. I produced atleast 3 entries per day, kasi emo ako nun.haha Keep blogging!

    2. I had the same problem before when I was applying for a position in an Advertising Agency. I only had 3 units of Advertising, as in 1 subject lang, kaya I was worried I'll never make it as compared to the Adver majors; plus, fresh grad pa ako. Pero keri lang, do your best.haha

    Good luck! Mwuah
