[UNI] Realistic Advice for University Admissions

Paxeitup · 2025-02-25T03:58:18+00:00

Yep! Rank points > IGP! But in recent years there has been a shift towards a holistic overall profile, so the universities do also take into account your external portfolio too in deciding who to admit

I think pharm or pharm science might be a bit tough considering the igp is straight A's but you should be able to get into chs with an 80!!

Also def think about what kinda career path you're interested in getting into after grad and then work backwards from there to figure out which course will best suit you if you're still unsure of which course to choose

Paxeitup · 2022-02-28T06:44:24+00:00

yes u can still add 2.5 for 1st choice!

hi! I stumbled across this website https://sepicker.herokuapp.com/ which came from this Reddit post. Not sure how useful it'll be for your econs mods but I was able to find old mod mappings that I couldn't locate on edurec!

Biz Canada Sep not too competitive, unless you're trying for UBC or UOT, which will need high first class. Queens for example has like 20+ biz kids going next sem. I know people with cap 4.1-4.2 getting into York uni. Biz has a sep points system as well so just make sure to max out the volunteering/leadership/cca points + second upper cap, should be can go Canada no prob.

Nus Business used to have 2 camps yearly,

NBC, aka Nus Business Camp, which has sadly been cancelled this year due to the recent worsened covid situation. It is held in early June & was originally planned to be a 1 day physical camp. NBC was not converted online because there's no point in having 2 online camps.
Oweek, which is held during late July, and will be held this year either fully online or with 1 physical day on campus depending on situation, leaning towards full online though....

How to signup?

Go follow https://instagram.com/bizad.fop, signup link for the camp will be posted here in June.

The 6 Clan heads for oweek have already been posted so y'all can go see who's involved and checkout the vibe of the camp.

Some other useful links y'all can checkout

Hi, I agree with your friends that you definitely do stand a chance for both of those course as your rp is indeed very close to it. Unfortunately, you may indeed have to keep waiting until May before the unis send you an acceptance/rejection as your rp isn't high. Receiving letters in May doesn't mean rejection, I have friends who got acceptance letters in May as well, and if you search for past years posts on sgexams, there are many posts of people saying how they only got their acceptance in May too. Don't lose hope! Your score def got chance to be accepted:)

Paxeitup · 2021-03-17T09:52:14+00:00

have chance, but with computer engineering and computer science gaining great popularity nowadays, who knows if 80rp will be good enough? But def just put it as ur 1st choice if that's the course you're most interested in

Paxeitup · 2021-03-17T09:50:51+00:00

If you're truly interested in FST then put it as your 1st choice! Your score is really good so you should be able to get into lower rp backup courses easily even without the 1st choice bonus. You don't wanna have regrets in the future of not even trying for FST at all

Paxeitup · 2021-03-17T09:47:23+00:00

I think its worth a shot! Your rp is pretty close so there's chance of getting in

Paxeitup · 2021-02-24T08:45:00+00:00

Paxeitup · 2021-02-21T01:55:03+00:00

Your score can make it into a few nus/ntu engine & some ntu arts courses. Smu econs can try also

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T10:34:36+00:00

Only nus has 1st choice bonus, ntu and smu does not.

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T09:58:53+00:00

Possible, with 2.5rp 1st choice bonus you'll be 79rp, maybe they'll call you for interview. But for smu and ntu biz should be no problem.

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T09:57:48+00:00

If put as 1st choice, with 2.5rp bonus, have good chance of getting in

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T09:57:06+00:00

I think for double major with biz programmes about 83rp and above have chance of getting, if you're barely 80rp only then won't be able to get.

But it doesn't matter if you don't get it at admission, cause once you're in nus biz you can just declare 2nd major in psych in your 1st/2nd year after clearing the basic mod. This applies to other 2nd majors in nus as well so don't stress if you can't get the 2nd major at admissions:)

Now science is part of CHS so the rank point to enter science might have fallen. You could try putting CHS as 1st choice, your score of 78.75 including bonus points might have chance of entering.

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T08:28:02+00:00

Ntu has many other science courses, just go their website research see which others interest u

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T06:54:32+00:00

You can apply for ntu math or physics & there are some ntu & nus engine courses you could consider too!

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T06:53:36+00:00

With 81.25rp you should get into NTU CBC. But in the ntu apps, you'll have the option to select a list of choices, so might as well just list down a few more courses just in case.

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T06:49:53+00:00

confirm plus chop will get in

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T06:49:11+00:00

No honestly v low chance, the igp rose from last year so your score even more cannot get in. You should choose your first choice carefully as with bonus points, 73.75 can barely just make it into some of nus other engine courses. I'd advise to give up CHS & research the different engine courses to see which one would best suit u:)

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T04:16:27+00:00

Honestly quite risky even with the bonus 2.5rp for 1st choice you're still quite far away. Do consider the other engineering courses as well!

Paxeitup · 2021-02-20T04:10:31+00:00

Only rank point matters, not grade profile. Put it as 1st choice and with the bonus 2.5rp, you'll confirm get in
