Gay+Elle needs to be spoonfed with propaganda, that's why he/she likes Straits Time and ChannelNewsAsia so much.

eagle SG

Even when spoonfed, he still misunderstand or miss points. Laughing

Gazelle SG

eagle,

I am giving your the benefit of doubt that your montly AVERAGE expenses over 8 years in not more than $400 per month or $13.15 per day.

So can you tell me which unit you belongs to and your rank as NSF?

eagle SG

Everyone has been asking for yours. Can you tell us now?

Gazelle SG

Please dont use M13 as an excuse to be distracted.

STAY FOCUS!!!

Gazelle SG

Eagle, scholarship are all unique in their own ways and if you are saying that you are bonded to a company that sponsor your studies, then how do you expect anybody to do a research about it? Want to tell me which company sponsor you?

Please dont try to avoid answering my question.

How did you profited $13,000 from the 2 years scholarship at NUS?

Gazelle SG

Please dont be focused, we are no longer at the thread talking about joining army.

STAY FOCUS!!!

Tsk. Such inability to stick to one topic. Rolling Eyes

<Precious> SG

Den after you have upgraded and retrained, employers may not want to employ you as you are too old......... Crying or Very sad

eagle SG

Are you very sure? Are you really very sure the terms and conditions are not similar? I can easily raise out a few scholarship bonds that have the same terms and conditions, can you? In fact, all local scholarship with bond have very very similar terms. Take note, I don't take into account the extra money given for those who go for student exchanges for certain scholarships. Now, show me your research that they are very unique

Think of this, hundreds of students get local scholarships every year. Where do you think they get their information to apply for it? Every scholarship giver is competing for talent, and with so many competition, how unique do you think the terms will be?

And since so many students around Singapore can get the information easily at hand at the age of 18 years old, are you to say that you cannot find information online that many 18 years old in Singapore can find? Don't have the face not to admit it right?

mistyblue SG

Its call selective understanding Laughing

Gazelle SG

Eagle, do you understand my question?

HOW DID YOU PROFITED THIRTEEN THOUSANDS SINGAPORE DOLLARS FROM YOUR TWO YEARS SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM AT NUS?

I would be very interested to know where exactly is the loop hole in the terms and conditions that allows their student to over inflat their expense and proft $6,500 per year. Especially a local uni scholarship.

Gazelle SG

eagle,

I am giving you the benefit of doubt that your montly AVERAGE expenses over 8 years in not more than $400 per month or $13.15 per day.

So can you tell me which unit you belongs to and your rank as NSF?

eagle SG

still begging for spoonfeeding when the information is widely available around? Laughing Strictly speaking, it is near 12.5k profit.

ok, I shall give you a hint. Other than having paid for school fees, there are still other allowances. How much, you can go and research. Let me also spoonfeed you this piece of information: Every local scholarship with bond (exception of NUS's own internal scholarship) has allowance of the same amount.

Obviously you have not done any research at all, only waiting to be spoonfed, and you want to come to reason out things? I don't know what adjective to use on you. It is not even private information, it is public information that even local scholarships given by the government agencies has on their websites. Laughing

eagle SG

So you are not telling us your unit and rank, and you want me to tell you? What are you? Chief judge? (Copy gazelle)

Gazelle SG

Eagle,

Please dont think so highly of yourself, I am not begging you, I am question you.

Are you saying that throughout your 2 years at NUS, the only expense you have is tuition fee? and you have therefore profited $12,500?? (down from $13,000)

I would like to know as a singaporean studying in Singapore local university, how much expense do you get from your sponsor?

eagle SG

Oh so you are questioning me. What are you? Chief Judge? (Copy gazelle again)

But since you asked so politely in your last sentence, I can tell you it is an allowance of $500 a month Laughing With this information, surely you can calculate with your simple maths now

We are discussing total income from scholarship after discounting the school fees, not total expenditure... Still getting mixed up in your head? Or trying to change topic?

Gazelle SG

Eagle, are you having difficulties in explain to us your allowance in NS?

eagle SG

Chief Judge? Are you having difficulties telling us your unit and rank?

Gazelle SG

Eagle,

at $500 per month x 24 months (2 year) your total allowance is $12,000.
NVM is you have inflation another $500 to make it $12,500.

Can I know why are they giving your $500 allowance? Are they suppose to cover some of the compulsory expenses such as books, exam fee, hostel fee, etc, or are you saying that $500 is your net profit and 100% goes into saving?
