i thought all they did was to bring in more foreigners..
because i know one of my colleague's sons was rejected for entry
while some foreigners with the same or lower results were
admitted..
he was kinda livid when he went to the MP to ask if he could use
his CPF to pay for his son's SIM fees and was told he could
not..
More foreigners and locals.
On my part, I have been noticing a general decline in quality of
the students over the years. I have to say that's just anecdotal
evidence on my part. But I do know that my earlier students tend to
request more consultation sessions, pay closer attention in class,
and are less likely to do stupid things.
The PM's call to allow more locals into uni may sound great, but
if that's at the cost of granting admission to yahoos, then I'm not
so sure about that at all.
