[quote=\"hipomum\"]Newbie here, have been reading the threads & am glad to find so many helpful moms out there, willing to share their experiences :xedfingers: I saw many posts regarding RGS & NYGH, but did not hear much bat NJC. Anybody whose child sat for NJC's GAT care to share? Heard the English paper was tough..... :frustrated: btw does anyone also know when notification will be out for the camp n interview? Hope to hear some input :thankyou:

Hi hipomum, my DD went for the NJC HAST. Yes...she also commented that the reading comprehension was super tough...her exact words \"dun noe wat the passages r talking abt\"...the other 2 papers, Maths Reasoning & Abstract Reasoning was easy though. The Phase 2A Activity & Phase 2B interview will be tentatively held on 20th & 27 Aug respectively....so my guess is they will notify shortlisted candidates a week before 20th Aug....so tat's another 2 weeks of waiting..

Guess they may need to do some rearrangement if 27/8 becomes a public holiday for the presidential election.[/quote]Admin from NJC informed that as they need to send HAST to Australia for marking, results and notification for next round will take some time. I think can expect to hear from NJC only after National Day hols. So, stay cool and sit tight!

Oh cestmoi, that's good news!

My ds applied using Grade 8 piano but have not received any news yet
He is keen to do MEP but there are not that co-ed/boy schools that offer MEP.
His grades are usually in the 70+ to 80+ range....
*Sigh*

Total tuition fees for engineering and medicine/dentistry is S$33,570 and S$109,510 respectively current year.

Thks Edureach. So how much would it costs for ivy leag universities?

You dam ambitious! I do not know much about fees for ivy league as my kids unlikely to make the academic cut base on their current standards. Think for medicine is a post-grad degree whereas for engineering, max is a few made it from Singapore each year. Unable to provide further information.[/quote] no like that la ..... Is ok to have dream right .... :rotflmao:

FYI, especially undergrad programmes in Havard, even among our top scholars, a handful made it there. Maybe yours could do it? A realistic chance is to pursue post-grad in Havard, it’s relatively much easier.

Sorry for my ignorant huh... Post graduate means after getting a degree locally then go there for further study? Wheraeas undergrad means go there right after A level?
