QUERIES ABOUT POLY GRADES FOR NUS/NTU ADMISSION
-
Hi,
I am a Electrical Engineering poly graduate from Singapore Polytechnic. I got 10A 16B 13C 1D for my 3 years of study. What are my chances of entering the local universities?
Please advice. -
i think maybe got chance lah.. nowadays most engin course quite easy to get in one lah.. average B or less also can already lah...
-
heard from my frenz tat onli top 5% of poly grads can go to uni...
ur grades put u up there? -

they say say only lah.... nowadays.. eng course just around B can already lah.. coz JC ppl dun like to study that... then for business or accounting.. even u get top 5% u may not go in too.. coz all the top jc student want to go in lor.. so the 5% things is actually bullshit lah... my batch even my course top student cant get it.. so kelong one..Originally posted by Nothingie:heard from my frenz tat onli top 5% of poly grads can go to uni...

v hard to say coz it will depend on the corhort tt is applying w/ u at tt yr...juz give it a shot lor since they say they hv 'relaxed' and are willing to take in more poly grads (although i seriously doubt so)

FOr different yr of admission, the criteria will vary.....it really depends on the strength of the JC students of that year as well as the course you are applying for.......
I hardly and I really mean hardly see any poly graduates in the local uni.......think for my course........there's less than 10 in a cohort of 600...maybe b'cos oversea uni offer a much shorter study period compared to the local uni due to exemptions........but undeniably......the local uni caters more to those from JC rather than from Poly.....so be prepared if you get in....
But there's no harm trying.....u nv know until you try.....all the best.. -
i heard top 20% alsoOriginally posted by sgboy2004:heard it is top 20% now

Is it....how come i no hear....kekekeke.........anyway.....the percentage not very accurate one......Originally posted by HENG@:i heard top 20% also
If that yr the JC students have really good grades......think they will consider them rather than poly students.....cos at least poly students have a diploma thus still can survive in this world -
Anyway chio_bu........
Just apply for the local uni now.....dun have to bother about whatever percentage........cos that is just a rough gauge.....
Hmm...did you attend NUS openhouse today??....you could have cleared some of your doubts with those pple who are directly in-charge of admission matters...... -
Why not give a try? You never know until you try right?
Anyway, either is top 20% or 10% there is some truth to it: Just think, every year, 4 polytechnics (and in the near future,5 poly) producing same amount of students with EEE background, you can be sure the there will be competition getting into EEE course and more diffcult to getting into Computer Engineering course (i.e. NTU's Comp Eng). Not only that, you have to compete with past year poly graduates too. So you never know until you try!
But anyway, if you can get in full-time, get in part-time. I doing my part-time BTW, I can switch to full-time if the dean allow. -
the intake for ntu eee is huge and vastly exceeds industry demand for eee graduates. NUS sch of computg has smaller intake but suffers from competition from eee and even private degree holders. anyway, you seem almost assured a place in ntu eee and nus SOC. whichever you want.Originally posted by chio_bu:Hi,

forget about singapore...
all my frenz tat went overseas came back with honours and i am still studying...
2 yrs vs 3yrs...
go for 2 yrs...
better grades somemore. -
I just want to go to local universities that is more cheaper and more recognized. I have applied through the NTU Website already hoping to enter NTU EEE with my poly grades.
10A 16B 13C 1D -
should be able to enter...
but your maths in particular must be strong. -
chio_bu, from your profile, you are about 28 years old? And if you have 4 years of working experience, then you can qualified as cat C: Mature student as well. In this way, your chance will be much higher.
I met a friend during my iap from ntu, his poly results was really sorry state (mostly C) but yet he get into U due to working job experience for 2 years. Forget to mention that he managed to get in U in his 3rd attempts.
I also apply for triple E this years but I'm not pinning much high hope as the admission this year is quite large numbers of applications due to several changes. Like one of the lecturer told me, "It's not the end of the road even you are not selected to go to local U, there is always next year) -
i got 1A 12B 16C 4D diploma in engineering infomatics...
do i stand a slightest chance in entering any of the NTU and NUS? -
By the way, your C & D are more than A & B , the possibility is very slim for the admission to local University.Originally posted by Bum Ble Bee:i got 1A 12B 16C 4D diploma in engineering infomatics...
