Academic Pathway...Lost.

Hello

I am in a dilemma. I know I want to do something on Food and something on Engineering hence I think Food Science and Technology might be a good choice for me. However ,I did really badly for my Diploma (cGPA=2.34) and could only get into a M'sia University for Food Science Undergraduate (Twinning program to University of Queensland or Northumbria University).
As M'sia degree ain't recognised in Singapore, I was thinking of doing private 'A' level to get into NUS Food Science and Technology course. I am no longer young.

Anyone please give me your view on this. If I should proceed w the Twinning program or should I just do my best in 'A' level?

Since Singapore doesn't recognise the degree from Malaysia I guess that is not a good option for you. If you study again, there is no guarantee that you will get into the food science programme. I believe that it is really hard to get into the NUS programme. I think working in the food industry while studying to be a private candidate will allow you to better understand if you want to work there and if it is good you can sit for the As

It really depend on which aspect of food science and technology you are interested in.

Have you check out SIT?
