I am from Indonesia and have just completed my master’s degree in the M.Sc. Program in Tropical Medicine at Kaohsiung Medical University. Reflecting on the past two years, I realize how profoundly these experiences have shaped my life.
Making the Vital Decision & First Impressions
Two years ago, when I first applied for my master’s degree, I was quite confused because I had been accepted into three different universities in three different countries. The first acceptance was from the University of Indonesia, the best university in my home country. The second was from a university in Russia with a Russian Government Scholarship. Lastly, I was accepted into Kaohsiung Medical University. After discussing with my parents and considering all factors, I decided to pursue my master’s degree in Taiwan.
