Question
Describe a tough decision you made in your life.
Sample answer
After finishing my graduation, I applied for few jobs and luckily I was offered a job in a large company. The work environment, the environment, the learning facility, salary structure and management were very good and I was very satisfied to work there. When I had to decide between continuing my job and doing my Masters, I was so perplexed that it took more than one month to decide which one to pick. The M.Sc. program offered by the university required a student to attend the classes at day time and that contradicted my office timing. I had to pick one of these two options and my parents wanted me to finish my M.Sc. first.
I felt like having a great dilemma and had to think a lot to decide. The time I tool to decide what to do took a long time mostly because, I was not sure which one should I put more priority: job or study? My parents were in favour of study when some of my friends advised me to continue the job and then getting enrolled in an evening Master’s program. This dividend opinion and advices made me more confused. Another reason which caused this delay of taking decision was the time I had in my hand. I was not bound to decide in a day or in a week since I had one month’s time in my hand to decide. I had different thought in this period and sometimes I thought of continuing my job while in other time I thought to put more priority on my regular Master’s degree.
After I decide to continue my job and doing the masters in a different university that offers executive M.Sc. program, I felt like a heavy burden had fallen from my head. I talked to my parents and finally they agreed that doing an executive Master’s Degree would not be a bad idea. I felt great as I loved the job that I had. I felt good as I had been able to continue both of the important things I had at that time.
