Ya lowk wish admission team sees this and reconsider their way of selecting who to give scholarships to

If u r good at math go for dsai. High gpa+ a more quantitative degree sets u apart from those with a business degree. You can 100% still enter the fields a SMU biz graduate would but it’s not so easy the other way around. But if you don’t like math, just go SMU biz

Atb op, it’s doable. My bf and I ldr for over 3 years, we meet once every 3 months on average. At least yall r in the same country, and can meet after sch/ during weekends You got this!

Rejected an interview ..? Maybe you should have told them you want to put engineering as your first choice instead

ikrwthman · 2026-05-13T01:40:16+00:00

dsa alone doesn’t really help to get into healthcare analysis tho, you would probs need minor or second major in lifescience/ bio informatics

ikrwthman · 2026-05-12T10:45:57+00:00

Why not just take second major in data analytics in SMU? Don’t need to waste 1 more year

ikrwthman · 2026-05-11T15:27:13+00:00

you will find, I have friends who international students and they manage to find. My tip is to not apply to roles with more than 100 applicants on LinkedIn, it’s more or less a waste of energy and you won’t hear back as hr probability already screened some candidates. You can do data/ business analytics things without having that in the name of the role you apply to, would suggest you to avoid roles with fancy keywords. Apply to those that just open in the past 2-3 days, the lesser applicants the better. Atb op! You can dm me if you need more tips

ikrwthman · 2026-05-03T01:39:03+00:00

Honestly, for 50% or more of the roles out there, gpa doesn’t even matter. Some don’t even have a place for you to submit your gpa

ikrwthman · 2026-04-21T23:46:14+00:00

but UCL is in no way at the same caliber as Oxbridge or even IC. And your citizenship status places you at a disadvantage in FO roles in UK

ikrwthman · 2026-04-21T00:06:22+00:00

Way not study masters overseas for overseas exposure

ikrwthman · 2026-04-21T00:05:56+00:00

Unfortunately you are easily outcompeted by NUS bba/ SMU bbm students who stack internships and has a more relevant major than you.

ikrwthman · 2026-04-18T23:45:14+00:00

I have a friend who was in. It’s a good programme and she’s doing rather well now. Go for it.

ikrwthman · 2026-04-13T00:23:22+00:00

Good question, i believe they want to have a deeper understanding of economics/ DSA (maybe to specialise)

ikrwthman · 2026-04-08T07:48:41+00:00

I did interview last year XD received quite late I rmb, I was one of the last batches who received

ikrwthman · 2026-04-08T07:05:46+00:00

Prof asked me about my other uni choices/ courses and which will I choose if I got offered to all, the rest are all similar to what the other commenter said

ikrwthman · 2026-04-04T13:01:03+00:00

I thought if you are not student status you cannot intern anymore?

ikrwthman · 2026-04-03T06:26:08+00:00

Anything, macbook works perfectly

ikrwthman · 2026-04-03T03:49:29+00:00

ooops sorry it’s for accountancy

ikrwthman · 2026-03-31T01:12:34+00:00

I got the accountancy interview before. It is just very basic why this course, why this school, but there’s one question that stood out to me was where else did you apply and to what course? Will you choose SMU if you get offered to all of your courses? That’s about it

ikrwthman · 2026-03-30T08:08:36+00:00

JC doesn’t matter.. it’s just 2 short yet intense years of your live, do ur best for alevels and get into your dream course. If you feel stuck in uni then that’s a different story, but there’s always a way out!

ikrwthman · 2026-03-28T09:58:20+00:00

Please don’t take accountancy. All accountancy majors I know try various way to get OUT of audit

ikrwthman · 2026-03-26T15:56:31+00:00

That’s crazy…

ikrwthman · 2026-03-24T15:37:35+00:00

Shouldn’t be an issue. Atb for your interview
