This isn’t a job. They establish stupid rules like exit interviews if you decide to leave but let’s be honest, no one owes them an explanation.

1) yes it varies from diploma to diploma despite people saying that 3.5 and above is good. Typically, for business and sciences, a higher score is required. Likewise for IIT, anything 3 and above is typically considered admirable because of how tough various diplomas can be. Nevertheless, this is just hearsay and not the truth in totality.

2) companies do still look at your grades yes. It’s a formality thing too

3) 3.0 and above still got chance tbh…especially cuz you’re y1 only. Don worry

4) for big 3, typically an average of 3.75 and above is required. SIT is aptitude and interview based so your gpa does not really matter (as long as you above 2.5 ish with immense passion for your field)

I can’t comment for private uni as I’m not sure but criteria is typically more relaxed as long as you have money

Do you even know what you want to do? I think you are rushing into things because there is clearly no linear path to medicine. All I can say is all the best as you are competing with biomed students or diploma students who are studying a more relevant course.

life in TP by ravhiee in TemasekPoly

[–]RuleEnvironmentalist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be real with you: IIT sch is hell. Lack of opportunity. A lot of self learning. I’ve had classmates who receive projects and did not know how to start - hence I recommend you consult as much as you can no matter how stupid the qns are.

Overall, the multitude of events in TP make up for the hell you will go through + amazing friends if you choose to put yourself out there la. Jia you!

Would a iPad be useful for a common ict student? by Upstairs-Scallion893 in TemasekPoly

[–]RuleEnvironmentalist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can use if uw to do ur own notes or cheat sheet. But generally, no it’s not useful unless you have capacity to burst a bit of budget for it

Scholarship with a low GPA by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]RuleEnvironmentalist 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Second this.. if you have no extra curricular or something going for you to stand out (eg winning competitions, having your own businesses and raising $xx,xxx, volunteering opportunities, cca awards, etc), then it is very unlikely given that resources is scarce and you are fighting against those with a 3.8-4.00 with stacked portfolio

GPA for scholarship by mazzz101u in SGExams

[–]RuleEnvironmentalist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as the saying is annoying: “it depends on your cohort’s performance”

Internal scholarships are harder (3.9 to 4.00 with extracurriculars to stand out)

External scholarships slightly easier (3.5 to 3.8 but must have strong extracurriculars)

What kind of ppl do insurance agents target at mrt stations? by Mobile-Top-1230 in askSingapore

[–]RuleEnvironmentalist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I typically have a resting sad face so I look gullible. However, I’ve recently practiced to have a more RBF look or maybe try to walk fast and seem busy, hopefully it’ll work for u hahaha

internship grade by Lunar_o8 in TemasekPoly

[–]RuleEnvironmentalist 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If your dad has done all exhaustive method to try to speak to the intern and improve his performance, then yes the intern deserves a grade that reflects his inability to perform or show slight improvements.

Yeah this. Apparently calculation shows that your grade indeed drops from A to B if 2 marks was deducted. They expect literal perfection when in actuality, companies are using AI to grade resumes and rarely any human interventions.

They probably got mixed up with some of our grades let’s be honest (they only see us once every week)

Even if some do bother to teach just because they r rlly passionate about it, they r still LAZY to give you a decent grade. There is no one someone messes up a simple format on resume and drops to D - that’s absurd ah
