You can also find the link to the NUS appeal website in the same section that I mention above.

The link is http://www.nus.edu.sg/oam/apply/cata/appinfo.htm#appeal

It looks the most professional and even includes freshman pack that really made me feel like I'm really going to start at NUS liao. I'm going to accept SMU and reject NUS and NBS's offer though. Distance is the most impt factor for me since all the courses I'm offered is biz anyway.
Woah congrats! LOL I wish I was in your position Haha all the best in SMU! I initially wanted to go SMU too. Haha all the best!

I haven't accepted nor rejected yet though. My boss is against me accepting SMU. She feels that SMU culture not so good cuz the people there are all in business de. She say at least for NBS and NUS can get to meet other people in science and arts and will really broaden your mind. And that SMU degree not as established as NUS and NBS. My only concern now if my future employers will see the value in my degree. And my boss is actually in recruitment. I'm working as a temp recruiter now. I think that's why I did well for my interview; I had a whole office of recruiters giving me advice, one was even from SMU herself. Now I'm waiting for the tea session at SMU. I want them to convince me to make the last leap to accept their offer.

To louisangel, I think you did pretty well for As actually. I calculated your uni admission points, it's 79.875. I got 82.5 so I think it's not a huge difference, that's why I felt that you could have just applied for business courses and stood a reasonable chance.

Yep I agree with ur point here. Seriously, when I went for the open houses since JC1, it is always NUS that gives me a more home-ly feeling and I am the type that would prefer knowing people who are into different academic areas. Actually, SMU business would be pretty good locally, by looking at the employment rate and I also feel that their cirriculum and training are very helpful. But overseas wise, I always have this feeling that NUS degrees would be more recognised. Not really sure about that though.

Have you applied already? I'm unsure about the cut off grades since NUS does not release it to public but maybe you can call them to find out?

after reading this thread, i've gathered that NTU hasnt changed much since 2006. they always seem to be taking their own sweet time in responding to applications.
