I think NP also offers aviation/aerospace related courses too. So many choices for students.

So if the students is interested in chemical engineering, die die want to get in.


do we put it as follow:
1st choice - SP CHEMICAL ENG
2nd choice - NP chemical eng
3rd choice - TP chemical eng.

it is like that??

What’s the difference between SOTA & NAFA?


Which one is more renowned?

Sorry if I sound ignorant, but they really do seem similar to me.

It's just how the polys package their programs to be slightly different from each other. Course content are similar with slight variations.

If the student is keen on pursuing an IB course (example, NP and SP) from the start, then put it down as 1st choice, esp if he meets the entry requirement.

For those who indicate Biz Admin with specialisation options, are likely to be undecided as to what they want to pursue during the JAE. And that's ok. We cannot expect 16yo to know what they want to specialise in at that age. So, they may want a more general exposure to business courses and then, when they have a better idea, can decide on their specialisation after Y1.

Another possible reason is that some students do not meet NP/SP's IB course as the cop is so competitive. So, they indicate BA and hope to do well enough to specialise in IB in Y2 and Y3.

Learning PR, journalism, media....

More importantly, what's the interest of the student? Where does it lean to?

Another very very very important thing to do, is to go to the polys JAE and talk to the lecturers to have a better sense and impression of what to expect. They must like the ambience and environment. Hear what the lecturers have to say and advice. Students must know what they are getting themselves into.
