that has got to be NUS .... 
quoted from e mail
"Here are 3 facts with regard to both A-level and Poly
applicants, in spite of the reported overall fall in first-choice
applicants to us:
(1) First-choice applicants to our School from
top students increased in percentage this year, let alone in
numbers (this year’s total number of all university applicants
increased Singapore-wide).
(2) First-choice applicants to our School
decreased in numbers overall (notwithstanding (1) above), mostly
led by applicants below our cut-offs. Some are probably
discouraged from applying to us due to our high cut-offs (as shared
in the previous email: highest among local Business schools) being
made public, as required by MOE.
(3) XXX had already set our cut-offs this
year above last year’s (which were highest among local Business
schools), based on comparison of this year’s application data with
last year’s at this same time point.
Thus, the “lost” applicants that we do not see are mostly from
those who had self-judged not likely to fit the profile for our
programs anyway. We are expecting to be customarily the most
selective local Business school again this year."
disgusting, cos e cut off is set by supply and demand as well as
profile of e applicants for tat particular year
and like I've said days back to you, I know of 1 case his GPA
made it well enough to get biz based on their so called
standard cut off pt but failed cos of his O lvl past.
