I have worked hard this year because I want to study at university. I’ve already chosen two faculties which seem to be interesting to me: philosophy and psychology. I dream about day studies but it is likely that I will have to find a job so evening or extramural studies will be more convenient to me.
My brother has just graduated from university. He studied law for five years and had his diploma examination last week. He was quite satisfied with the choice of faculty because he had professional tutors and lecturers and attended interesting lectures. With such a university degree he has a promising career ahead.
