Guo lai ren, please advise
Advice specific to NTU:
1. Study what you are interested in. If you are in a major that you have no interest in then no FCH for you.
2. Go on at least one exchange. Every course will have that one or two killer mods and most "smart" people will clear them overseas.
3. Take easy electives to boost GPA. Study the list of modules you can take as electives and see which are easiest or better yet those that overlap with modules you've taken before. For example, if you are a science/econs/biz student you probably have taken stats before. Then you should also take HP1100 Fundamentals of Soc Sci Research. Take it in semester 1 with freshies. Pwn them with your stats background lol.
4. If you are in engin and have very little electives to play with, DONT waste electives on pass/fail modules or online modules like forensic science. Its better to take an easy elective like Astro and score an A/A-.
5. Dont take a module with the intention to S/U it. Its better to spend time finding an easy module where you can score A/A- in.
General advice. (for mechanical engineering at least)
Like what you study. Love what you study. Derive everything from scratch. No need to remember anything. Treat your homework as tests. Challenge your tutor. Ask more questions. Aim for full marks in everything, 99 and below is unacceptable. Study everything, even if it isn't going to come out in exams.
If you are somewhat like this, mech eng should be easy AF.
Hard truth.. Say is always easier when we really do it really need a lot determination

good grades and having a life don't coexist.![]()
If you seriously believe that, then life must be tough for you. Studying is probably the easiest thing compared to the responsibilities when you hit adulthood.

Alr stepped in to adulthood.
Studying surely is easy. To excel in it is a different story. I supposed you must be a FCH graduate![]()
