2008 Uni Entry

June 2 is approaching and to many University going students, it means they will either receive the reply from Uni about their application status and also quickly decide on the choice of which Uni/Faculty for their studies. Some are abit lucky to receive early and have more time to ponder about what to do. Some...will receive on the last moment and have to really think and act fast. (Aishah, 1 of the top students received NUS Chem Eng offer on the very last day!!...so u can imagine how she feel in the whole month of May).

Some, due to their nationality, may have to stop and work for a year and apply for PR so that they will be placed into their choice course next year. These are good candidates for DTs in school. I really hope they can join us.

This is also a dragon year for poly babies so competition is quite tough...while summaring the data for uni entry cut off GPA...it seems like those with GPA less than 3.45 will have to try again next year. Tough for quite afew guys who have GPA around that level...some are appealing already. Still, they can apply again in the army next year...many of their seniors have tried and successful so there is still hope for them.


I have almost all the data now...just missing 1 or 2 more...here are the summarised data so far:
NUS Chem Eng - 5
NTU CBE - 4
NTU CBC - 10
NUS Chem / Applied - 3
NTU biological science - 2
NTU materials Eng - 5
NUS Arts - 1
SMU Accounts - 1

surprisingly no one choose Env Eng from both NUS / NTU this year.....Good to see NTU CBE accepting more students now...they used to take in only 1 per year...so your seniors must be doing the school proud so they decided to take in more.

All together there are 32 going uni ...20%...quite afew actually choose to work and save up. Some will go overseas and some will enter PSB / MDIS / B-tech...so overall % uni goers will be passing 30%.

I will send out the summaried excel table out once finalise...by Jun 2 i think.
