the interviewer asked me how do i cope w stress and then i gave them my answer. she told me that i can talk to rp mentors and stuff uh.( like rp got this ) - idk is she feel that i didnt research enough or what.

then another qn was what skills do i think i need to improve during the time being ( from now till poly start ) i paused for quite awhile bc i got shock by the questions ( like i didnt expected it ) and i said communication skills - like from real world context like communicating w my friends & she told me that there's online communication lesson that i can take.

so like my ans kinda got rebutted by the interviewer twice? plus the questions they asked me was quite different from past years and those that gave me advices on possible questions.

Which course interview was it?
Istg, a lot of the RP interviewers super anal. During my interview for biomedical science, the interviewer was like "Oh, our courses are very highly sought after by many students." She said it in a very sarcastic tone, kind of like telling me that there are many super qualified applicants and that I might not get the course. They were like super passive-aggressive.
As compared to my NYP interview, NYP was way nicer. The interviewers were genuinely concerned if I knew what I was getting myself into. They were super reassuring as well. RP's interviewer was just simply condescending, imo.

Die liao lor mine still processing application SMLJ

Don't lose hope yet! If people who got offers reject their offer, their place will be given to other applicants. My deadline for accepting the offer is 6th April, so if I don't accept by then, it will go to another applicant. I won't be accepting it since I accepted SP's already. I know of other people who just received their offers today with 6th April as deadline too. So you might get an email after 6th April!

Those that have gotten the offers, after govt said will be all online based learning, any news or insight on it? How will "orientation" be done (like disseminating info like how they normally do during orientation)

For SP, there's a 2 hour orientation. 7 to 9 April. Don't know about other polys.
