I see.. so NUS has a better reputation amongst the prospective medical students? Wondering if anyone did a comparison between the two.. also I’m quite surprised that the study methods are different?
Very warm and welcoming coupled with very new facilities both in NTU and Novena...
TBL was quite interesting, probably lots of opportunities for sharing knowledge within the group...
YLL is an establishment with >100 years of history.
It does not makes us felt as warn and welcoming as compared to LKC.
Their CG system (6 or more in a group) is similar to TBL.
LKC offered 1st, a week later, YLL offer came...Like some of you, receiving offers from both school means dilemma.
My daughter was kind of skewed towards LKC; Warm, welcoming, newer facilities, good vibes.
Wife and I skewed to YLL (We didn't expressed this to her); Its natural instinct.
After talking to families and friends; She accepted offer from YLL, despite her mind was skewing towards LKC.
That was a difficult choice, then.
We discussed strengths of these 2 schools over the weeks before deadlines to accept either offer.
Final decision is hers; either way, the same MBBS.
Progresses is really up to individual and what drives them beyond the 5 years in school...As parents, we will have little or no influence.
Over the past 2 years, she had truly enjoy her learning journey in YLL; the friends she met and made...still making and enjoying. Pre-covid, there are so many opportunity of local & overseas programs; sadly some plans were aborted since last year due to covid.
Forget about some hearsay that med school = not enough sleep or no social life.
I think her time in med school is far more interesting as compared to her JC time...
BTW, she did not opt to stay in hostel, which we are glad, very happening place even for med students.
Due to this fact, she best friends are also not staying in hostel...friends are very important factors, this I believed.[/quote]Dear Harrods,
Greatly appreciate your input, does your daughter have more input as to why she think YLL is the better choice? I heard from friends that NUS curriculum is starting to copy NTU curriculum and that NUS is slower to adopt more modern teaching styles. Also heard that NUS \"over-teach\" as compared to NTU.
