SIS has the highest dropout rate in the entire SMU, so if your interest isn't there, do reconsider.
Also, many came to SIS with the thought of a backdoor entry to their desired degree programme, e.g. accountancy, business management. You will not be allowed to switch your degree programme once you are in SIS. Instead, you will be encouraged to take on a second major, if you are good enough, a double degree. In fact, a second major is compulsory for all SIS students and you will probably be asked to have a face-to-face meeting with the Dean if you insist on not taking a second major.

Anyways, if you are prepared to come into SMU, you'll need formal wear + blazer too.
There will be tons of formal presentations. So it's a start.

Don't know how accurate this is but with these kind of survey results, expect competition to be hot again as SMU applications have yet to close. Good luck to all those applying or shortlisted for interview!

Just came back from the interview. It was totally the same as last year's except that they want us to go on a "mini-tour" before going to the ES lab (aka preparation room).
Some things to prepare before going. Give examples where you displayed creativity, problem solving, responsibility, leadership, good team player, etc. And think of 3 questions to ask them.

How was the estimation question?
Hi,
I graduated from NP in Engineering Informatic with GPA of 2.9+ (I know i know....)
I'm very interested in SMS SIS but i think the cop is 3.2... is my chance of getting in very very slim?
Main reason why my GPA is low is because of the 1st yr modules ( not related to software engineering ) but i scored several As and a distinction on second and third yr because it was more "related" to the things i'm interested in. I also onto the director's list once for my fyp project... dunno if it helps.
Am my chances very slim? please be gentle and advise me... Thanks.

Even if your chance is slim, you won't know until you try, no?

I know a friend who had a Poly GPA of 3.0 in SMU SIS. The interview is the deciding factor.
All the best!I know a friend who had a Poly GPA of 3.0 in SMU SIS. The interview is the deciding factor.
Think it depends on the competition that year... someone in Year 2 now got in with 3.0, but my friend last year didn't get called up for interview with 3.2.
My gpa is 3.4 but didnt get thru the interview =(
Like what most of them said, I believed the interview is the deciding factor!!
How about u? wat's ur gpa?
