SIM-UOL fresh grad starting pay

Anyway, the academic grade requirement of Smu is higher than these three unis.

I can only hope that in the near future these three UK schools plus uol distance learning degree can be considered for admission to the Singapore Bar subject to meeting the required grades plus maybe relevant work experience.

Yes the inflation in the demand to study law in Singapore is directly related to the recent change in the Singapore bar.

I must remind you that you speak only from a Singaporean's perspective.If you were to ask a British citizen or an American for instance which would they pick SMU or Leeds,Manchester,I'm sure the result would sound inane to a Singaporean even though there might be a contrast in the academic requirements of both parties.

The American would probably say they nvr heard of any of them.

thats cos your typical american only knows about america. in fact, we think ang mohs are all so smart but actual fact is they are no different from us. can watch on some of the videos by searching "americans are stupid".

question: "how many sides does a triangle have?"

american: "uhh... four?"


so why do u want to bash your fellow singaporeans? im sure most singaporeans have never heard of overseas unis too, besides the very well known ones like oxford, harvard, cambridge (probably cause we take the gce o and a levels)

The point is, brand recognition is reserved for the top tier. The 2nd tier unis are only respected by the locals and nobody gives a **** about the 3rd tier.

So people from America would respect Michigan or UC Berkeley, but people outside American would think they are merely ok universities.

People from UK would respect Warwick, Kings, UCL, but people outside American would think they are merely ok universities.

Nobody really gives a **** about Leeds, Manchester, Sheffield. People from UK treat them like our own SIM.
