wish u the best! did u get any of ur previous lecturer to write letter of recommendation for u? n also, did u consider SIT? why do u want to switch?

haha i didnt get my lecturer to write recommendation. my DA is written based on the events tt i managed, international leadership event tt i participated and some captain role in cca. so i only get my event manager to write for me as i only applied it on the last few days before application close. no time to find others to write

For why i wish to change course is mainly because i always wanted to study material eng to work in biomedical industry particularly in the biomaterial field. was offered NTU environmental engineering in 2008 in which i rejected. I applied again this year to give myself another chance since i got nothing to lose haha.

So those who got low gpa do not be dishearten as the application really depend on demand and supply. But base on the last 3 years igp, the gpa required seems to increase a lot -_-

Hi all,

I have received my rejection letter from NUS. I was from raffles poly, GPA is 3.59. My O level I got 30+

Thanks NUS for informing me early, really appreciate it. Unlike last year, I was kept in suspense until June.

All the best to my future endeavours!


I will never apply to local uni again.

No. I have enough of social stigma I received because I came from raffles poly. Sim uni or Sim GE is good IMO but it is not up to me to say good or not. I have enough of horror stories of people getting rejected by MOE because they have SIM certs, or getting paid a diploma pay even though they got SIM certs and employers deemed them unworthy. Along with it, the discrimination and thinking their schools are more superior. I got sick of being looking down right from the first day of school in Raffles poly and it persists until now. I am not going to let it proceed.

This is it, I am not going to have any bull shiat paper chase anymore. :(

I don't think there is a problem with RP as it will be evaluated equally as with other polys... I got a few friends from RP in my Uni too... (Btw I grad le)

Got... I applied to NUS and NTU. I am going through what I went through last week. I almost can foresee the impending rejection last year. :(

How are you lyn jie jie? :o

dun mind can i ask what course did you apply for in NUS n what course u study in RP??

Since my GPA not very good, I only applied those courses with low COP like FASS. I studied science in RP. I applied life science last year but they rejected me. :(:o

I don't think there is a problem with RP as it will be evaluated equally as with other polys... I got a few friends from RP in my Uni too... (Btw I grad le)

Maybe it is my o level? :(

EEE has one of the largest intake in NTU. On the other hand, business is among the hottest course in town. Material Engg reminds me of my Aircraft Materials & Maintenance Practices module... NO NO... :s13:
