Just an example, NTU biz / Acct are 3-year courses.

Yup and they compete in big 4 audit which is accepting almost anyone nowadays.
The only difference like i said is only if you are going to top tier strat firms or bulge bracket.

Do you feel cheated on your education? Well that's life, too bad for you hehehe

Even for BB (MO/BO), there are a few who are already in their grad programmes. Know of someone who is entering a BB SA Class this year too.

As for BB FO/Strat firms, you can still find private uni grads who either rebranded (T15 MBA, LSE/Oxbridge MSc/MA, CFA etc) or garnered enough relevant work exp in these positions.

Well, we grad in 3 years and we are coming into the same roles as you while you have to take 4 years to do it. Unless you are going for top tier strat firms or bugle brackets, which has a barrier of entry to SIM students, it seems that SIM students are much efficient than you with their 3 year degree

please, you sim retards are already down by so much money with your unsubsidized degrees.

talk about roi lor

Read the posts above before you step ROI pls.

Do you even know how on par SIM-UOL fees are vis-à-vis local uni?

Can't win an argument with private uni students now want to talk about fees? At least get your facts right retard :(

Damn xia suey leh srsly.. Already embarrassing enough that private uni students are living in your heads rent free.

Clearly you are a local uni student with a pass degree haha or do you even have a degree

If you can talk about ROI but you missed out opportunity cost of 1 year. Makes people think that you lack perspective.

Why do you think most of the people from SIM are comparing against FASS instead of students from biz/com sci?

FASS is as pathetic as it within a local uni

if NUS and SIM had a child, it would be FASS

sure lets talk about roi.

As a reference:

NUS/SMU Biz (Subsidized, Singapore Citizen) - 9.6k / 11.5k (per annum, for 4 years)

UOL EMFSS - Avg 32k (for 3 years)

Again, do a simple LinkedIn search. Handful of UOL fresh grads in GA/MA programmes drawing >the 75 percentile of local uni fresh grads (4.5-5k and up).

I understand, if I were a local uni grad, I would be angry too. But this is life. Doing well for As/Poly/IB doesn't equate to success people.

There are plenty of hardworking SIM-UOL / other private uni grads who ready to pounce on every opportunity available.

Be consistent, vigilant of the competition and most importantly, be humble

You’d be surprised to find out how many UOL students actually switch to another degree programme / give up / take more than 4 years to obtain their degree. Some of them are from top JCs (HCJC, NJC etc) and poly courses (IB, Aerospace, Biomedical etc) btw.

Laugh all you want, but the EMFSS programmes at UOL receive academic direction directly from the LSE and has certain academic rigour to it. Meaning to say, the content is set/regulated by the LSE & the examinations are set, marked and ‘moderated’ by the LSE.

Little known fact, SIM-UOL and LSE/UCL etc (Top UOL member institutions) actually offer 2 fully-funded Masters scholarships to SIM-UOL students every single year.

And no, it is not a scholarship for a UOL Masters accredited course (even though these schemes are available). These are programmes awarded directly by the member institutions (ie LSE/UCL) themselves.

I also know a SIM-UOL grad who scored straight As & is currently doing her graduate degree at Cambridge. Feel free to run a simple LinkedIn search to verify all the above.

Private uni students/grads, let’s prove our worth through actions, not words 👍🏻😄

still waiting for you guys to prove leh, how long has it been. 20-30 years? look up the stats. based on cut off points, quality of students, ranking, prestige, starting salary, basically every other metric, private uni can't compete with local uni.

that is a fact. and cherry picking one smart student who got into cambridge grad isn't really a comparison when NTU and NUS produced a rhodes scholar each in 2019 and 2020, to say the least. don't want to come across as condescending but sometimes a reality check is needed.

to me, SIM is like a safety net, you get a basic degree, good for you. congratulations. but don't try and play it up as if you've achieved the world. same goes for local uni grads. you are just one out of 15,000 local uni grads every year.

peace
