Four Students Contacted Me About NUS: Revisiting Their Profiles and IB Scores

Hello. Today, let's look at students who went to university in Singapore.

Four students contacted me. There may be others who went there too.

Every student listed here received a 7 in final IB Chemistry.

Teacher, I’m going to Singapore!

Teacher

You too? You’re going with your friend. What was your score?

Student

Haha, mine is just…

Teacher

The university in Singapore is an excellent school.

Student

It is a little low for Singapore.

Teacher

Why are all of you getting into such good schools? Haha.

Student

A slightly weak score…

Teacher

You did really well.

I understand the student above had a predicted total of 43.

I think they also had an English test score.

Congratulations, haha. They weren't strong academically at first, but at some point they began working hard and became a strong student.

In the end, they performed well in the finals. Thank you.

Hello, teacher! I got into NUS.

Oh, it’s been so long!

Are you still in Vietnam?

Yes, I ended up staying here. I’m still here!

They were diligent and a student I was very fond of.

Congratulations to you too, Mum.

The students above all qualified for the three-year overseas-study admission route. Their predicted totals were all in the 40s. None had a 45.

Congratulations to all of them.

From these cases, it seems that a score around 43 could support admission to a university in Singapore, depending on the department.
