can u name me an industry/company where they will prefer a history student over a geog student?

Some political intelligence unit in one of the ministry... I rmb attending some tok and one of the speaker from that unit says they prefer hist major.

And of cos there are also those positions that prefer geographic major to history major such as GIS.

Majors like psychology or economics are also a requirement in their respective fields.

seems like ntu biz igp have risen quite signifcantly this year.

over the past 3 days, the top 5 students of a biz diploma in nyp were all rejected by NBS. All of us had dip in merit and includes gold, silver , & bronze medal recipients. our gpa ranges from 3.77-3.88

How in the world does a poly student enter NTU, when being in the 10% of the cohort doesnt even get u a spot in NTU? Nuts


What's their O lvl results?

I am from SP biz sch, gpa 3.85, no diploma with merit but managed to secure a place in nbs. Yeah, my gpa doesn't even place me in the top 10% of my course lol

I'm quite in a dilemma now. Should I enrol in the University Scholars Programme (USP) or the University Town College Programme (UTCP)?

I am not quite the Arts kind of person, more of a Science person. So, I don't know if the USP or UTCP (which seems to be USP, but only for 2 years) is best suited for me. Should I not join any of those UTown programmes and just apply for a Hall residence? From what I heard from USP/UTown students, their modules are generally not those GP essay kind under timed conditions and hence, I might be able to excel as there's time to brush up on the work itself.

Also, comparing the UTown Residences and NUS Halls, which one offers more student-student interaction? Judging from the info from NUS website, it seems that the Halls are student-run and more college-styled (the Oxbridge kind). Furthermore, they regularly run programmes with a social aspect to it. However, I am not sure if that is the case for UTown and would I miss out on anything that is unique to the Halls?

I think they are still processing your application. Maybe wait for good news on next Monday?

Which course did you interview for?
