SIM-UOL fresh grad starting pay

This thread is full of stupid and ignorant people.

[hrgt]

Guys... Relax and chill man. There is not point quarreling over whose degree is better over whose... Or whether if UOL is private/not private. Ultimately, all of just want to get a cert and earn a living.

the poor guy has been trolling this forum full time trying to stir something but no one even cares about him. haha.

for uol grads, a private degree is from a degree from a private university like harvard.
the uol is a publicly funded university.

perhaps, what he means is distance learning degree? but he is too dumb to understand the differences and modes of education. even the (old style) gcse o and a levels are in fact distance learning qualifications (singapore's exam papers are sent to cambridge to be marked and singaporean schools conduct the teaching). ditto for iq tests, ielts, sat, gre, etc.

there has been many nobel prize winners and many prominent businessmen/leaders/scientists associated with the external uol programme.

there has no zero nobel prize winners or even someone of some worldwide significance in science/business associated the local sg unis. haha. that tells you everything you need to know about the sg education system.

NUS was started 50 years after the uol external programme, about the same time, technically, it should have at least 80% of the achievements of the uol.

look at the wikipedias, under uol you have alumni such as Derek Walcott, Nelson Mandela, charles k kao. under nus, you have notable alumnis such as goh chok tong, kishore mabuni.

ha ha ha. don't make me laugh.

no doubt that the two local unis are currently ranked highly. why? just look at their list of professors. they are paying money to hire researchers ( i guess with good publication records) from mostly third world countries to publish research for them. the world ranking is mostly concerned with publications. i am sure they are smart enough to tweak their class sizes/student/teacher ratios etc as well to improve their rankings. but at the end, it was all bought by money, not by nuturing local singaporean professors to produce world class research.

singapore born people make up maybe only 20% of the tenure track professors from what i see from their websites. the rest are mostly chinese, indians and a few americans/europeans.

this is the same as them getting foreign sports people to represent singapore by giving them accelerated citizenships and money. and still not being able to produce world class teams in all the sports (except badminton and table tennis). ha ha.

haha. still waiting for a singaporean local uni graduate to produce world leading companies or research. probably no chance. we all know some can't even differentiate between public and private unis. haha. they are all in the banking sector backstabbing each other and taking pictures of their expensive meals on the weekends to post on facebook because apparently their friends says that is where all the money.

wah lao, why local university no truly world class businessman or researcher leh? easy to set high entery standerads when you have a monopoly of the markettt, but doing so also deprives many of a university education leh. wah lao!

ps: i no even associate with uol or local uni. haha.

It's funny how sim kids assume that anyone who insults them is from local uni.

Haix, why so cmi?

Ever wonder y SIM don't publish their fresh grad salary survey? The have all the incentives (build reputation, attract better students and staffs, gaining grants, etc) to conduct and produce such surveys if their graduates are as capable and highly demanded as they claim. But they don't, why?

They did. From their own brochure:

High Employability
SIM’s University of London graduates have consistently
demonstrated high employability according to SIM’s annual
Graduate Employment survey. The survey on the Class of 2013
showed 89.7% of respondents were gainfully employed in their
first full-time job within six months after their final examination.
The average monthly salary was S$2,719.


They dun publicise cause simply cannot compete.

And its funny how ppl say local uni lecturer cannot make it.

Maybe its true, but u know who teaches UOL in clementi?

Local polytechnic lecturers and UOL graduates.

Ownage.

interesting that they are using average instead of the usual median.

salary distribution are usually skewed to the higher end bcos of extraordinary earners who bring up the average. that's y in most salary survey median is usually used instead.

This is harrow going anonymous.How I know? Who likes to write long empty posts other than him? Who asserts a problem without a solution? He talks to himself and is neither from SIM nor local U.Guys like these are the real culprits.
