Where's the logic? - A breakdown of the study costs for MSc

As you all know or probably will know, I'm a biotech Msc student at USM and I was looking through the fees structure today and realised that USM is totally not fair to research mode students... (those who just wanted to get a Msc cert so they can get a better job)

A breakdown of the study costs involved in getting a masters in science (MSc) at USM:

Research mode: 
Duration - Likely to be 2 years (min) before your supervisor will agree to graduate you
Cost - RM 4100 per sem with some other study-related expenditures (exam fees for thesis evaluation for example). 1 year = 2 sems - TOTAL: RM 17,490

Mixed mode: (I simply choose one health science-related course - health toxicology)
Duration - For sure 1 year can graduate unless you are lazy and do nothing lah
Cost - RM 13,940 per course with registration fees - TOTAL: RM 14,280 (funny that they don't need to pay exam fees when they are the ones having exams)

Coursework mode: (I simply choose one health science-related course - clinical pharmacy)
Duration - For sure 1 year can graduate unless you are lazy and do nothing lah
Cost - RM 14,940 per course with registration fees - TOTAL: RM 15,280 (funny that they also don't need to pay exam fees when they are the ones having exams)

ohh yes, research mode costs more and is longer in duration than the rest of the modes... and now I wonder why I chose research mode in the first place lol...
