To graduates of bachelor courses, have you found a good career now and have you ever thought of going back to school to further your studies and learning, to specialize and have a masters degree?
I know someone who does. She even wants to have a doctorate degree. And that's how passionate she is about learning and to never stop trying to gain more knowledge. Have this ever crossed your mind?

Hi there chiyosan! 
For me, I am a graduate of the Bachelor of Pharmacy course which took me 4 years to complete. After I graduated, I went straight into the workforce. Honestly speaking, it has always been on the back of my mind to further my studies and do a Masters degree in Pharmacy, because I think furthuring my studies is a good way to increase my knowledge in the field and gain extra qualifications (which might help me in getting future jobs that require higher qualifications). I have one concern though - the cost of doing the Masters degree. We are well aware that these sort of courses are not going to be cheap and will cost quite a bit. As this is only my second year out in the workforce, I think I will probably have to save a bit more money if I am to do a Masters degree. Buying a car and a house is on the top of my priority list at the moment, and the Masters degree can perhaps wait if I ever do decide to do it.
