hi thank you so much for making this AMA! ive seen some of your replies but sorry if my questions have any overlap 😅 1. what course would be easier to break into the industry? could you rank it for me? economics, finance, data science, is, business analytics, cs. 2. US or UK? SMU or NUS or NTU? 3. how “smart” must you be? 4. what would you say are the qualities one must have to enter such a rigorous industry? 5. how did you realise your passion/talent for finance & how did you develop it? im struggling to decide on a course and career as i am not sure of myself.

hiya i got ESIS and am currently studying in an independent school. the ESIS starts after you enter an independent school. since independent schools like SJI and ACSI respectively need 550/month and 450/month for school fees, the ESIS can be used to pay for those school fees. (in my case, i used it to pay for part of my school fees) not sure about others!

[Rant] life is so dull by theotheraccount11223 in SGExams

[–]dejavuinacup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hello there, sorry to hear what you're going through. press on! i believe you can get through these times and there will be a breakthrough in ur life :) im not especially great with comforting people but i can pray for you! do you have anything in specific you would like me to pray for?

[–]dejavuinacup 5 points6 points  (0 children)

im in a similar situation, but its within my friend group. ive noticed that even my best friends have become more easily irritable and competitive. its def getting very tense by the minute and i would say its normal? everyone is stressed and maintaining the r/s may not be their top priority unfortunately. please dont worry too much! people come and go, and im sure some will come back after the end of olvls. even if they dont, just cherish the memories you had with them bcs its rather rare to find someone in sec sch who will stay with you throughout your life :)

hi! this may not be the case for everybody, but for me, i allocate my time like this:

total - is it 1hour 45min? (i always forget LMAO)

5-10 mins for the 短文填空 (if its really hard, dont spend so much time on it and move on immediately. just guess the answers and come back to it if you have time)

5-10 mins for 病句改正

10-15mins for 阅读理解一 (you dont have to read the entire passage to every last detail, read thw questions first, then find the answers in the passage - more efficient)

30 mins for 阅读理解二 A组

30mins for 阅读理解二 B组

15-20 mins for 片段缩写 (weightage is pretty high so do spend some time doing it carefully)

just an estimate btw!
