@99chvdee: After getting my SPM results, my mom kept saying that becoming a teacher would be a good choice and told me to apply for IPG. My teacher said the same thing too. It got to the point where I felt like I couldn’t make my own decision. So, I applied for IPG just to satisfy them. Then I was accepted and had to take the UKCG exam. But after taking the UKCG exam, I keep thinking about things like what if I pass? I keep replaying the same thoughts in my mind because deep down, I feel like that path is not truly me. I want to chase my own dreams, but it feels like I have to put them aside just to please other people first. It’s not that I’m ungrateful, but no one sees how much it hurts to bury the dreams I’ve kept alive inside me. I gave everything I had for the future I wanted, but somehow it was never meant to be mine.

I think some people missed the point of my post. It wasn't about the grades; it was about the lack of choice. People see 'IPG' and think I’m ungrateful, but they don’t see the pressure of having your future decided for you. And just for the record, not getting an A+ doesn't mean I wasn't good at what I loved. Passion isn't always defined by a grade on a certificate..parents always say they 'know best,' but it's the kids who have to endure the misery of living a life they never wanted. It’s so hard to stay motivated when you have no interest in what you're doing. But honestly, if this is where I'm meant to be, I’ll strive to be the best educator I can be, just so I can support my students to reach their own dreams without being controlled by others. I don't want them to feel as trapped as I do right now.

hello wak. nak ceritaaaa. dulu lps spm, my mom forced me to be a teacher, bcs it was her dream. bila dpt masuk ipg, i was forced to quit engineering (my dream) 💔 now i dah jadi cikgu, but the regret for not standing up to myself is still there. until today, i still blame my mother whenever i got too tired from being a teacher 🫠 hehe sorry mama, i love u, but adik menyesal until now 🥲💔

If you're still not in IPG, or still hasn't signed the contract. Please don't do this. Take this from someone that has 10yr of tcg exp. I REPEAT DON'T DO THIS. Choose yourself. I choose this as this is what I want. BUT if you have other dream, if you know what you want to do, please pursue. Learn from an early age to chase after your dreams. You're so young, you can do so many things. CHOOSE YOURSELF! Your parents will be dissolved or mad for a while, but if you choose something you resent, you will live with this for the rest of your life. DON'T DO THAT TO YOURSELF. Please awal2 ni la kena bljr melawan pilih what u want, klau dah terbiasa ikut je, some day you will lose yourself. Don't do it ok 🙏

Chasing someone else's dream is so real. I wanted to take Art/Animation/and Graphic design. But parents wouldn't allow me, cuz they said it wasn't that demanded job back in 2019 and year before that 🙂 So they forced me to take TESL just bcuz my English result is good (SPM almost straight A's). But I'm not comfortable with it cuz i have hard times speaking even in BM. Speaking and talking is not my forte 😌 And here i am almost finishing my Masters at 25 y/o, and also I'm taking JLPT so that i can teach Eng in Japan. In improvising my dreams. Funny how I had to toss away my old talent (drawing) that I have learned since I was small, just for a new one that i don't have passion of 🙂 Im going to Japan this May for training. Pray for me 💓

its better to rebel and choose pathway yg you sendiri nak. i chose med bcs of family too before, miserable teruk and finally had the courage to quit after working as a houseman for 6 months. mental teruk. now tgh otw nak jd cg while doing business. trust me, loving what you do is very important if you want to take care of your mental health in the future. mmg la org kata work life balance or whatever, but its undeniable yg you spend the majority of your adult life working. i hope you the best dik

in my opinion, do whatever it takes to fail the interview kalau memang tak minat. kalau u dah mess up the iv but still got accepted to IPG then it is your fate. untuk apa strive your best untuk sesuatu yang u yakin u tak ada passion? your parents may be dissapointed tapi apa yang lepas tetap akan berlalu. you have to think about other people yang betul ii minat tapi tak dapat sebab you dapat. saya pun ada kawan yang sama tak minat jadi cikgu, sampai sekarang tak minat. end up depress dan susah untuk sesuaikan diri. everytime dia rasa nak giveup, dia akan kata aku taknak pun jadi cikgu. bukan semua orang dapat peluang tu. jadi kalau memang taknak tak payah usaha pun untuk dapat, you are wasting your time.

Sorry i tak dapat read the room here. Cuma tertanya komen2 banyak ni semua dalam situasi yang sama kan, kenapa mohon jadi guru kalau jiwa pendidik tu memang takda? What if yang takda jiwa pendidik ni lulus, yakin ke nak mendidik pelajar2 dekat sekolah nanti? Nak jadi cikgu ni tanggungjawab yang besar yaa. Kita MENDIDIK untuk generasi akan datang. Saya harap awak2 yang mengalami situasi ni bila lulus usahakan la ye buat yang terbaik untuk anak didik kita. Ingat tanggungjawab ni besar 🤍

awak, saya pun somewhat in the same shoes. working in a healthcare line is my dreams, but i was forced to be an accountant or a teacher. dulu saya menurut je nak jadi accountant, now saya sedar, in the future kalau ada apa ii, saya yang kena hadap trying to survive in a career yang saya taknak pun. saya decide just to langgar semua and chase my dreams. please chase your dreams. bcs at the end, no one will help us if we’re struggling with a path yang kita tak ingin pun. kita yang kena hadap semua. kalau bidang tu susah pun, atleast awak tau awak ada minat. minat la yang buat kita berusaha to achieve something. I wish you the best💕

you're not alone dear, we are in same situation. my mom also forced me to take this path since she thought once we out from ipg, we will instantly have job which is nice but it is frustrating because i want to do something yang i minat tapi tak boleh sebab dia. tahun ni i apply ipg jugak sebab dia asyik bising and i had no choice but to follow. i feel guilty because ik there are a lot of people there want to be in ipg but here i am. had to take it because i got forced by my mom. being a teacher isn't my dream career at all. i don't even have a passion for it :( now waiting for e-ukcg result. it sucks because i cannot argue with her anymore
