Rosecy, RV no offer KI? I thought someone told me, KI is for better students who excel in GP. What is actually KI?

Students take either GP or KI (Knowledge & Inquiry). RV only offers GP currently.

You don't need Biology for Medicine.

yes. sorry to butt in, but yup, Bio was taken out as a reqmt for medicine in 2004 or 2005.

had students with chem n phy get in before. but of course, the majority in the med fac in nus had taken bio. the fac just doesnt want to lose talent from the pool that didnt take bio.

Thank all for the reply...So, look like it is not really a compusory subject for any Uni course

Really good to know as DS is quite determined not to take Bio elective for his Y3 next year :roll:

Well, didn't want him do Medicine but hope that he won't be rejected on his preferred Uni Course because of that :xedfingers:[/quote]Updating my own questions in case someone out there also interested to know : )

Read from NUS site:
1) Pharmacy has Biology as a prerequisites.
2) Bioengineering need student to take Biology Bridging Module if do not have a H2 pass in Biology. Not sure does it mean must have it at the 1st place but guess so.

The VP has offically step down today. Dd told me the ceremony was very touching and everyone was sad because he is a very nice VP. He was ex RVians and the chinese teacher who taught him whem he was in RV is still teaching in RV now. She put on RV collar badge for him today … Very touching. They sang the school song with him the last time and greeted him e traditional way the last time. 起立，行礼…
