mainly left with Medicine, Law & dentistry still waiting for NUS reply?
If that is the case, I guessed due to the dates of interview n test
my son was in camp n could only apply close to closing date so I m not surprise at all
anyway, his smu interview n test was just 2 weeks ago n for NUS his test n interview will only be next week due to resheduled date
That is not the case. Acceptance and rejections are usually given out in batches. From my experience, there were people still getting accepted by the local universities all the way in end-June.

NTU rushed out the offers in order to attract students who are worried about their application to NUS. Psycho games.
Yes I agree it's a psychological game NUS is playing, especially with the top 80%-100% percentile pupils. My observations is NUS is fast to churn out offers to those around 70%-80% percentile pupils. The rest are kept waiting.

Hi doodley,

Why does NUS do that to 80-100% percentile pupils? Also, would like to know whether NUS offers scholarship to pupils who are now serving NS and can only commence their study in 2018? TIA.

I guess the Psycho game is about would you rather be a small fish in a big pond or a big fish in a small pond?
