Subject : The Local College or The College Abroad?
Hi,

How are you? I know it’s hard to choose which college to go to after SPM. I would like to put in
my two cents. Both local colleges and colleges abroad have their pros and cons. For local colleges,

the tuition fees are affordable. Besides, you can go back to your home easily and frequently.
However, you might feel bored as your surroundings are not much different and your life is pretty
much the same. On the other side of the coin, the tuition fees are exorbitant if you choose to study

abroad. In addition, the living expenses are high too. However, you will get to experience foreign
cultures when you are studying abroad. This unique experience will broaden your horizons and

enrich your life. Therefore, I think I would choose to study abroad if I were you. I hope my opinion
is helpful. Bye!
