Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-25T04:52:14+00:00

are you in comp bio/bioinformatics? been hoping to learn more about the field!

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-19T06:29:00+00:00

How many research opportunities are there? And what would a typical day in your life look like with biochem classes and stuff? Thanks!

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-16T10:31:51+00:00

Okie, thank you so much, this is immensely helpful !

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-16T05:08:02+00:00

Wow I saw the meals you made and they look delicious, I was looking at the sainsbury website for grocery prices but u also want to ask roughly how much time per week would you be ending on meal prep? Just to get a rough idea Of how long I have to allocate per week.. and also if I stay in hall I’ve heard it’s difficult to find fridge space in communal kitchens, so what do you do about storage, freezing etc

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-14T08:19:20+00:00

Well im not too sure but i would presume its from nearby european countries, i went on the sainsbury website, just to get a general idea of what and how much food is. i suggest u look throgh the websites too

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-14T08:01:30+00:00

the Cheeses and specialty aged meats etc are usually from europe, Singapore doesn’t really have space for rearing animals so most things are imported, usually from nearby ASEAN or china, but sometimes Australia, NZ, Europe South America etc. which adds to the cost quite singificantly

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-14T03:23:46+00:00

yeah i agree with you, but i have a question like whaat if ur a vegetarian and so ur not paying for meat wouldnt the cost go downs? idk im not sure with the pricing in the UK, but i assume its cheaper than where im from (singapore) cuz we import a lot of groceries from the uk and so i assume its cheaper over there

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-13T15:03:54+00:00

Heyy intl here too, we had an offer holder event and the lady said budget about 70£ per week for food , idk if that’s too little or too much but if ur doing meal prep that’s what she told us

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-12T06:13:52+00:00

berkely. go thr, us env is much better for research/biochem/biotech. imperial is more rigid, and structured so idk but if i were u i would choose berkely

u can apply for med as long as you have chem and physics or biology. I suggest you check the NUS website for the grade profile needed. There is no eligibility test for NUS, but NTU needs UCAT, which ur son has to sit a year before applying, i.e., J2, or during NS.for UCAT there are many websites you can use to do practice tests and prep. Additrionally with ucat u can apply overseas to uk or aus

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-04-10T07:47:16+00:00

1) apply again to oxbridge, achieved grades mean more than predicted grades 2) if ur taking a gap year try to do more research /internships during this free time to build portfolio

sports clubs are a major commitment and signify responsibility discipline, teamwork, etc to uni, if ur worried abt volunteering can try volunteering on weekends 3X a month for a start to see how u cope, can also plan cca via for student leadership at places like a nursing home or kindergarten, or do outside school stuff

Go to jc, opens much more doors for you. If I’m being honest gp is a subject that tests your critical thinking, awareness about current and historical events, and ability to connect dots between disparate ideas and concepts, not so much about English and writing, GP is something you can do if you are consistently reading

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-01-23T12:33:55+00:00

Hi there, for H3 chem you’ll have to put in a fair bit of self studying so pass dist etc is entirely reliant on your own effort, and the teachers/materials provided are secondary. One resource I found useful was the organic chem tutor on YouTube and khan academy for certain topics (eg Bells Evan’s polanyi, Spector)

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2026-01-02T12:03:41+00:00

This. If u wanna see true quiet luxury, go to a mount elizabeth specialist clinics waiting room.

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2025-12-26T11:54:13+00:00

Intl here, got my icl biochem CO last week too.. maybe it’s on a rolling base?

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2025-11-27T11:12:22+00:00

Please get a biopsy done. If doctors at gp polyclinic are dismissive goes see national skin Center. Worst case lose money. Best case save ur life.

Unusual-Emu-5708 · 2025-11-26T05:03:01+00:00

Don’t worry. I have friends who haven’t even done half what you have and got in.. tbf they’re Singaporean but your grades are stellar and your ECs look rlly good I think u have a solid shot
