Which is better, vocational or academic?

A vocational course at a really good business school or an academic course at a good University?

argh!
got an offer from Cass business school for Banking and international Finance... made my life that much more complicated... -_-

you should work where you want to work, and do the course that leads to that career

Whats a vocational course?

what are you nuts?

voc school is for noobs who cant get into college

Steve, they both lead to the same thing, buh one is more academic that the other. The vocational one won't need a post-grad degree tho.

Ahmed, its a course that trains u for a specific job...

Sayf, not for investment banking.. they're more into reputation n stuff

=======
anywayz, i've declined the offer.... Cass is good, buh i can do a post-grad at a betta skl.. hmm maybe Saïd business skl *dreams*

plus the offer was stuupid... they basically said one of my subjects wasn't worth nought, so they gave me a crazy high offer.... sheesh

Is it like an institution?

no no, its a University.. buh the course they offered me was more work based... and a lot more specialised so when i graduate i'll only have 1 field i can work in..

i have always liked the idea of a vocation but i haven't done one.

they are more likely to lead to work immediately aren't they?

yes, coz they need less training time so companies spend less money on their training.. hence why they get employed easily..
