You need to understand the academic structure to know why it is a "express degree". It is not a bad degree cos it is fast.

first of all, you need a diploma for admission. Your dip credits will exempt you from first year. In sg, murdoch curriculum is based over 3 trimester (4-month term). While in Aus, one academic year is two term of 6 month. You need two term to cover one year of curriculum.

Most murdoch deg are 3 years, taking away the first year exemption, you will be left with two. If you do your deg in Aus, you will need absolute two years (2 yr x 2 sem x 6 mths term = 24 months).

In sg, due to the shorter terms, you can finish in 16 months. (2 yrs x 2 sem x 4 months = 16 mths). This is done by taking away the 2 months break in between terms which Aus students enjoy, which I think is a waste of time as an adult learner.

As I've mentioned, lecturers are miss and hit, so do be prepared to go the extra mile to secure good grades. The pace will take some time to get used to, but once you are familiar with the murdoch system, you are good to go on your own.

Simge are on par with Kaplan since both are pte edu providers. And imo, you are better off going to nus/ntu since their courses are way expensive tho they have uni with better reputation. But a pte deg nonetheless. (Unless you are referring to unisim, who confers their own degrees.)

i dunno if cheong hian is still with Kaplan or not but he was a good finance lecturer (abit cocky though)

Hi friend,

Anyone need Kaplan referral, PM me. I got the cheque under may referral name after two months upon staring the course. I can whatapps you the prove and I'll be with Kaplan till end of 2016. It will takes you less than a minute to fill up my particular on the referral form when you enrol.

Also selling some of the used text (intake June 2014) for SUT BBus degree program. Mint condition with some note.

1) Francis, G., & Garing, A. (2013). Foundations of Statistics (2nd ed). Melbourne: Pearson Education - SGD56

2) Davidson, Poole, Woods, Simon and McBarron(2014). Management Foundations and Applications, 2nd Asia-Pacific Edition price - SGD89

PM only and deal at any MRT.

To those that I have send my details, please ask for the referral form and submit when you sign up. I was informed by my consultant that the best is to fill up the referral form together during signing up as it cannot be done anymore once you start class or a week before. Also, do that note when choosing a referral. I am not sure how it goes for those dropping out or graduation soon. Thank you for your help!

Kaplan is only good if you have working experience

If you are a fresh grad, it's going to be rough getting a decent job with a kaplan degree without some good fortune. I recommend you to do it part-time and work at the same time to reap the most benefit out of it. I'm speaking from experience.
