Locally speaking, you need to understand that NUS has a whole lot more history than SMU.... and unfortunately, that means a prevalence of 'NUS-old-boys'-club' mentality. There are still partners around who only take on NUS grads.

This is not a comment on the actual abilities of an NUS grad vs an SMU grad, simply that there are a lot of old school people in the industry who continue to believe in only their alma mata. You can tell lah, if you look at their teams/past trainees & assocs.
