goals can be set, achieving it is a different matter altogether

"we will strive to be the top 10 in the world for creating the most top 10 dreams/goals" -

in case u dunno... NUS this year is ranked the top 18th ..in the world... a top 10 is quite possible...

Ranking universities broadly has little or no meaning.They should be ranked according to schools(business schools,engin scholl etc).Apart from medicine and law(which no other local university offers here),NUS has nothing much else to offer.
NTU's NBS has been ranked higher than NUS' business school,NTU's engin schools are widely regarded as better than NUS'.
Most other faculties in NUS(arts,real estate,science etc) take in rather sub-standard students who will never bring the university into the top 10 in the world.
I feel that NTU and SMU will play an increasingly more important role in educating future leaders in Singapore and over time surpass NUS as the two most influential academic institutions in Singapore.The former would drive enterprise among future leaders and the latter would produce highly opiniated people who will play an important role in shaping our society.
In fact,NTU has already set an ambition to become a fully-fledged university offering a wide array of courses within the next decade or so.SMU would inevitably follow likewise over time I feel. -
