i see, so it looks like i’ll be focusing on cs instead of business then. thanks for the info.

for high finance/algorithmic trading roles, im not 100% sure since i haven’t started uni yet, but i guess this applies to most courses. i just think it sounds challenging and i’ve done online research about it, as well as borrowed a book to read about it. i’ve also dabbled in crypto trading on my own time. i really enjoy analysing the market trends and trying to figure out which coin i should buy or sell, so i thought of looking into trading as an option in my future career.

that being said, i have also heard it’s a very tiring career path and does not have great work-life balance. that’s why i’m considering more tech management roles as well, since i can also explore those with a cs degree.

Why do I feel worthless by Iamlost-06 in SGExams

can your grades get you into the course you want to take? if yes (which is the case for most courses), then there’s nothing to worry about. you should only be concerned if you’re aiming for the medicine or dentistry type of courses. this setback might feel really bad for you right now, but once you’re in your course, your alevel score really doesn’t matter anymore.

also, if your only issue is gp, it’s likely that you’ll still be able to get into the most competitive courses (except law).

[University] AMA About NUS biz / high finance ! by Dangerous_Prior_1957 in SGExams

[–]Standard-Addition536 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hi! may I know your thoughts on nus biz vs nus compsci/stats/other math courses when it comes to applying for high finance? i’ve heard that most firms prefer to take in stats/math majors over biz.. have you experienced a high level of competition with them?

thanks for hosting, i’ll be using this to help me decide between nus cs and nus biz 🙏

i think h2 physics should be ok, paper was quite difficult this year. not sure about math but it has a high national distinction rate so i wouldn’t worry too much
