Stop chasing after what the country wants. The question should be "what do u want?"
Do you just want to be a graduate? Or a professional in what you do?
That's the difference between the pursuit of good grades and the pursuit of knowledge; the kinda graduates each produces.

You also have to know that the pursuit of pure unadulterated knowledge gives u an edge in the examination hall cos it makes u well grounded, no matter how the examiner twists the question, u won't be twisted.

I'm gonna give you an example, I remember when u did International accounting as a course. As you know, globalized economy is one of the economic factors that influence International accounting and it has its own objectives. A lot of people crammed those objectives, some even copied it down. But the examiner twisted the question like this; "what common efforts are pursued by nations in a globalized world economy?" This question confused them, they left the objectives of globalized economy and started writing the historical background of International accounting.

I can go on and on but I'd like to stop here. I have also weighed the both concepts and I have chosen my path.

The pursuit of knowledge supersedes corruption any time any day. On the other hand, corruption kills the zeal of pursuit of knowledge.

Note: This is my opinion, this is what I believe in, I'm not forcing it down anyone's throat cos it won't be fair. We all are vested with the right to choose our path, so choose what you think is best for u.
