Joseph22 Turbocharged March 31, 2011 Share March 31, 2011 Unfortunately he was rejected from doing Medicine in NUS due to a policy that deliberately discourages very outstanding students to do medicine that started around that time. In fact, the subsequent top A-level student in 1980 was also rejected from doing Medicine in NUS for the same reason. how come leh?? why got this policy?

Piyopico Supercharged March 31, 2011 Share March 31, 2011 Aiya. May not be important in eyes of some pple. They may even say he is not fully invested like one of their own. Obviously to tat party not important la. If so then ask them to explain why put him up for nomination to begin with. This really gets me boiling. All Thanks to those idiots that started the QUITTERS jibe years ago. Such an irony when so many of therir kids later went on to quit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timex1441 1st Gear March 31, 2011 Share March 31, 2011 Yes. I think they still have this guideline now as well. Some of my friends with straight As were rejected. Not sure why? it's been like tat for very long liao, not recently. in the 1990s, for every batch of applicants, they split the total quota into several: X no. of 4A's n beyond (e.g. S-papers, etc), Y no. of just 4A's, Z no. of 3A's+1B, XX no. of males/females, YY no. of Asean / S'poreans...so in reality, a person with 4A's is not competing with a person with 3A's.

Viceroymenthol 6th Gear March 31, 2011 Share March 31, 2011 Yes. I think they still have this guideline now as well. Some of my friends with straight As were rejected. Not sure why? Their policy for straight A singaporean students is to spread the talent pool between medicine and law fac.Many in medicine stream in JC were disappointed when they were allocated to NUS Law despite scoring better grades than some who were accepted into NUS medicine.

He also said many wait till age 26 or later than convert... the main reason is they do not want to WASTE SERVING NS here.
