1. I'm aware that local employers are skeptical of Aussie uni grads due to their belief that the latter are usually local uni rejects.
BUT what about the private sector in Singapore? Are they as skeptical as well?
2. While it is true to a certain extent that some local uni rejects went to Australia, there are also some really good Aussie universities that set high entry standards (think UMelb and ANU).
So, how do local employers (both government and private sector) perceive such top-notch Aussie unis? Are they the exceptions?
I'm asking this because I have to make a decision between
SMU (social science or business) and UMelb (commerce). Thus, 5 years down the road, I don't wish to look back at my decision with regret.
Anyone can offer your insightful opinion/experience?
