I have applied NTU MSE through EA on December 2014. However I still didn't receive any news from NTU. Dese it means that I am alr rejected by NTU? I don't have O level btw.
Do any of the unis use a private number to call?
Hey people, I major in Business in NYP with CGPA 3.57.
Please rate my chances of getting into NTU Mathematical Sciences (3.60) and Sociology (3.47). Thank you!!
Oh, and do they deduct cca points for o level results?
confirm can get in. You should have already received NTU's EA invitation and got in right.....it's matter of scholarship only (Unless you are from RP).

Hi guys,
Im currently taking electronics in tp and have a cgpa of 3.7(4sem). Do i have a chances to go to NTU accountancy? my final cgpa are estimated to be about 3.75-3.78...
If your Os L1B4 is less than 14 then you might have a shot.
like that can i retake the subject i did not do so well in o levels during ns and use it to apply uni again?

Liddat all guys will retake during ns just to get better grades. Heck I might as well take one olvl subject each year throughout poly and get a1 each.. Doesn't work this way lol

You can. O-levels cert can be combined. But there is a maximum cap of 2 sittings that you can combine and only 2.
Nowadays some NA students take one or two O-level subjects in sec 4 if their teachers think they are ready and then they do the rest in sec 5.

In the score computation, GPA is 80% while O levels is 20%, so it makes little sense to be retaking O levels during your Polytechnic days - rather focus on your poly studies.
Unless perhaps you need to meet certain subject requisites. Eg some courses require an A2 in Additional Mathematics / Science.
But yes, in the past admission threads, there have been many guys retaking O over their NS. These are mainly borderline cases with GPA nearing 3.7+. Makes more sense to be retaking O's than going to SIM.
In application to Polytechnic, combined of up to 2 O levels is allowed.
For university application, to the best of my knowledge, there is no limit. Back in 2011 there were a couple of guys here who retook Add. Maths & English over 2 years in NS and all 3 seatings were accepted.
Further, the FAQ* states "ALL" and not "BOTH". To be on the safe side, I could drop the Office of Admissions an email on Monday and let you all know the outcome.

Seems like you guys are mistaken
Im not saying you cant retake ur o's nor am I saying universities wouldnt accept them
Im saying that there is a difference between taking them during sec school, in poly, and even in NS. Or even taking one module at a time vs how people take 5~
Thats why i gave an example of how ridiculous it sounds if one takes one each year for 5 years (poly+ns)
Thats why we're telling you that there is NO difference. I dont think the university even bothers because 20% is really small. On top of that, most courses want to see individual subject capability. Like Add maths or physics. As long as you can do these subjects, even without sitting for others at the same time.
