I remember when it was 18th, the NUS website proclaimed: 'NUS Among Top 20 Universities in The World' or something like that.

Then, when it dropped to 22nd, it proclaimed: 'Top Quartile of World's Best 100 Universities'.

So now.... what will the website say? Laughing

fatslob SG

Top third of the Worl's Best Uni's..

I think in coming years will change to..

"at least not the world's 100 worst uni's"

selfobliged SG

but they said NTU is easer to pass rather than in NUS. My fren also said the professors in NUS heck care the students. Cause when she asked her proff how to do a certain qn, he just simply said read the text!! Neutral
