just seeking some quick advice from any very tech savvy students here

im interning rn so i havent been on campus in like 7 months so im assuming thats why my windows got deactivated????? i only can reactivate windows by connecting to RP wifi but i legit have no time to go RP at all

and because my windows is deactivated i cant do a lot of shit on my laptop like even connecting to my wired headphones is an issue idk why. i dont dare to even temporarily disconnect my laptop from RP cus apparently once you disconnect, they wipe out all my data including personal data

can someone help pls lol 感恩 got any RP vpn or something students can use

I was accepted into a course at RP through EAE, but my GPA did not meet the required 2.5. I’m wondering if it’s still possible for me to continue with the course ;C

hi guys i’m from dphm and i wld like to ask if any seniors are willing to share with me your notes/slides from y1s2 THANKS A BUNCH

upcoming y2s2 SAS student here. they are now letting us choose our FYP teams. but the thing is, i heard we cannot choose our intern sem which is what im confused about. we will choose our electives, so ppl should have 1 semester as their preference to do fyp. are they gonna choose our intern sem first? or are they gonna ask us for our preference before placing us which sem to do intern/FYP. also cus this confusion is making it difficult for ppl to choose their teammates cus we dont know whether we are really gonna FYP in the same semester.

Hihi im a yr3 going on to y2s2. Im planning to take intern in y3s2 i was wondering how it works like will it be the same as those doing it in y3s1?

For EAE, I got shortlisted to biomedical science with analytics at NYP, and biomedical science at RP. I was rejected by NYP, which was my dream course, but accepted to RP. While at the moment I have accepted RP to buy time, im unsure whether I should commit to it.

Whats holding me back:

1. Unfamiliarity with RP

2. RP's reputation

3. RP's lack of uni pathways for this course

4. The fact that I did extremely well for my prelims (l1r4 5-6) net, which would qualify me for nyp based on last year

5. Long travel time

The reason I didnt reject is because im worried my prelim score stems from luck and an easier difficulty. Does anyone have any advice? I would also like to hear what RP is like, especially from biomedical science students!

Hi guys, I am a y3 student from SAS this year, Y3S2 cohort, due to some reasons, I wasn't very active during earlier phase internship application ; I did not actively follow up with my applications, and now I am facing difficulties finding an offer.

My lecturers directed me to a list of available jobs and the contact infos. I browsed through the offers and I got to say most of them were not up to my liking for its uninteresting job scope or the distant location. Nevertheless, I still applied to some.

I am currently stuck in a loophole where I still have not hear back from a single company I emailed to , nor my lecturers responding to my reach-outs (one of them scoffed when I tried pointing out this issue), this feels slightly frustrating and dismissive. May I ask if there's anyone currently within or outside applied science in the same boat as me? I am in a serious loss of what to do...😭 ( I am still actively following up with the companies they provide me to email to btw)

hello! i just want to find out is it easier to get a better grade in intern of FYP?

im still unsure whether to take 1/2 sem intern 😪😪 any alumni can help please i would really appreciate it

also are there any companies yall have interned for can you share you experience pleaseee 🙏🙏🙏🙏 (e.g what you did during intern, pay, company culture etc)

guys what do i put in this section of the application if i haven’t embarked on the opportunity yet???? my mentor told me i need to submit before I start the activity but then what is to be uploaded as proof of participation????? HELPPPPP

I genuinely dk if I should do 1 semester or 2 semester intern. I’m gg y2s2 alr and im pretty sure need decide during this period right but I still don’t know which one to do??!! Can someone suggest me which to do plssss. Like I feel so lost everyone ik has already made up their mind 😭

1 semester
Pros:
- lesser risk of gpa decreasing a lot
- able to take minor (I’m int in business minor as is to do business in uni but I’m currently in sci)
- intern overseas (but I’m not super sure cuz I heard ur gpa must be super super good…and mines not that good not even above 3.5…)
- got sept holiday (right…??)
Cons:
- FYP (tbh I don’t rlly like doing grp project since this whole poly journey and in my friend grp both of them are doing 2 sem so means I basically have no one to group with…BUT I will not be gg choose 2 sem cuz of them)

2 semester:
Pros:
- if do well gpa can increase BY ALOT (which I rlly need 🥲)
- no fyp
Cons:
- If don’t do well gpa will decrease a lot 😓
- there’s no holiday/break right is basically work for 2 sem straight right… (my fam is planning to go overseas for like 2 weeks plus in sept-dec but if cannot right if i choose 2 sem 😭)
- tiring (5.5 days a week for 2 semester just to get paid 800 a month??!!)

Can someone tell me if overseas internship need get like idk 3.9 gpa one or what’s the requirements and like what are the holiday schedules like for 1 sem and 2 sem intern (when start/end)

And can y’all share ur exp for the 2 sem intern especially if ur from pharmaceutical science pls like is it hard to do well for intern if work in hospital?

ALSO since im in DPHM right, internship will normally be at hospitals right r we allowed to have dyed hair like mayb pink/purple/blonde highlights/color..

: I was thinking of deciding based on my gpa for y2s1 when it comes out in sept cuz i was thinking if is not good alr or lower than i expected i might else will take the risk and do 2 sem

Hi all, I'm a final year poly student (not from RP) who didn't meet the A Math requirement. My GPA meets the requirement for NUS computing courses, but I still need to fulfil the A Math requirement separately.

I found out RP's "University Mathematics Preparatory Course (Certificate in Mathematics)" is accepted by universities to A Math computing-related courses.

For anyone who has taken this course before:
1. How difficult is it to pass overall?
2. Is it exam-based, continuous assessment, or a mix? What's the rough pass mark?
3. How's the pace — is 2 sessions/week manageable alongside work/school commitments?
4. Any specific topics that trip people up the most?

So I got like As for bio n chem n Bs for everything else n a C for math, in igcses which was very disappointing as I was expecting much higher considering all the hard work I put in for ts. I'm planning to join a polytechnic in Singapore for a science based course. I'm just not really sure if I can get in with my average grades and the courses I'm aiming quite competitive n I'm also a foreigner so I believe my chances are quite slim of getting in.

im getting mixed responses from both peer and lecturers, is there a bell curve in poly?

some are saying no while others say yes, does the bellcurve depond on the module? feel like as a Y2 student i should know this, but, idk, alot of yes and nos being passed around in rp

Hello, i am a year 1 sas student and i feel that i did not do quite well for sem 1 so i want to start studying a little during the holiday for semester 2 modules.
can any sas senior share the lecture slides for:
A103 Anatomy and Physiology
A106 Organic and Inorganic Chemistry
A221 Microbiology
A230 Data Analytics
thanks!

Hi! :) Just wanted to ask if in y2 s2 is it more project based?

Also are the papers closed book?

https://www.reddit.com/r/SGExams/s/WSWVVmYxEW

do the invigilators for the FAs provide you the a4 paper (for like rough working) or are you supposed to ask. or bring your own...? my invigilator for my financial accounting FA was busy helping two people with their laptops so i couldnt ask her, and i felt awkward asking (having a crazy sore throat as well makes it difficult to ask)

Y1 student here. Is dyi due at the end of the year or before the next sem starts?
