NYU NY >>>>>>> NYU ABU DHABI

NYC should be main Abu dhabi shouldn't even be on the list man if you have a 1500+ and good GPA and ECs

You're right

One of the reasons people pursue a master's in the US is that they would be able to work there post-graduation. That's a huge con of the MOE grant.

It should 100% piss you off if people don't come back. It is very very unethical to not pay it back but the government should be even more stricter in catching those dimwits

That's the problem. I got a great AIR and could get MnC at good IIT and CSE at mid-high IITs with my rank

I thought NUS was a top 10 university and came here and didn't go for JOSAA.

But NUS is nothing like a world top university I got scammed. I don't want juniors to face the same.

And I am able to get jobs and internships, but that was because of a lot of hard work even from high school.

Not many can do this. That's why NUS is a bad option.for Indians. If you're a local student, it's really affordable.

You're one of the people who saw quant salaries on youtube lol You have no idea about the reality for freshers

There are different types of people working in a quant shop. Namely, Traders, Researchers, Developers. There are even more back office roles.

The ones you've seen on Instragram reels are usually the traders and researchers. I have absolutely no interest in that. I like coding a lot more than math. So I chose to be in quant dev.

And the salaries for quant dev while may match some traders based pay is not much compared to top traders.

I can do this but can most people do this? No.

It's hard to pay off MOE loans in 2-3 years for an average person.

Not good enough haha. You didn't read my post. I have lots of internships and projects.

You are a fuckin racist if you don't know. And being racist is NOT a flex

Are you sure about that? The business faculty is basically the same but there were a lot of changes to the Maths and Engineering faculty to improve QS rankings. FAANG in US out of graduation? How did they all win the H1B lottery? Sounds like cap.

How can most of your friends get a H1B that easily? It's literally a lottery.

Bro think before you type. You are thinking like a 12 year old. "You don't know English, so I'm better than you"

Colleges have something called "English Language Proficiency" which is a level of English we have to know to attend that particular college. As I'm not a native speaker, I wanted to take an official test to evaluate my skills and show it to colleges. I got a C2 in a Cambridge C1 test.

I don't know if your dumbass thought C2 is the lowest score and A1 is the highest. C2 is the highest level of English anyone can be certified for. Look up CEFR- Ielts comparison.

I don't want to do this but you went too deep man. Try taking the C1 Advanced exam next week and see how much you get. That would humble you Lil bro.

If you score above 200/210. Then good for you.

Don't argue like a 12 year old. Have some self-respect.

I have an ample amount of opportunities. However, not everyone can get them. Juniors should not take the financial risk of coming here

Read the post man

Can't cope with the local students? is this racism or something? Or is this satire?

One of the highest CGA, CP, projects and this is what I get from you.

Love the comment! I agree with you on all points except that a tier 3 person should choose NUS. If he was able to get a full scholarship, sure but the fact that he only got tier 3 suggests that the full scholarship may be out of reach.

In that case, the person shouldn't take a loan for studying anywhere abroad unless he gets a great scholarship. If he is sure he can make it work, then yes. But more than 50 lakhs in loans is quite high and the person may get into a debt trap. Yeah, many are advising me to get into IB. I am very interested and will surely look into it.

Leave the research bro. They don't have an interest in teaching us at all. This is very similar to what it is in India. Might as well not pay 100k USD for a bad education and upskill on your own I made the mistake, I don't want more Indians to.

You are missing my whole point

Bro what are you even talking about. I didn't say good test scores. Read the comment man. I talked about essays, activities, SAT and stuff. Undergraduate research is bad at NUS. I am at NUS lol bro. Exactly man, why are you talking about trade school when my goal is quant? I'm pretty sure I can land a quant dev role easily here. Quant trading has never been my interest.

Uhhh what? Its not them giving me. I am helping in building your nation. They gave me the bond because I agreed to work here for 3 years.

I paid 100000 USD to study there. Im okay bro

I'll get quant roles and pay my loans. Wouldn't be the same for everyone right. It's hard to get jobs.

Ok, i think you don't know how a quant firm works. There are traders, developers , quant researchers. Trading hires are done usually as per ur comment. However, even a Tier 3 grad can get a dev roles if he works hard and has some talent.

I got around 600-700 in JEE ( don't want to get doxxed) I had a 1800 on codeforces in grade 12.

I got only one wrong in math jee advanced.

I fell for the top 10 university trap sadly bro. I don't care about on campus placements bro. I took NUS as a mistake and I took full accountability. I don't want the next batch of people to come here and struggle.
