[atomic monolith]

Fun

[forest locust]

@atomic monolith bro you're so lucky you don't realize

You don't have to worry about fees that literally tear you apart

Think about the int students, how life is actually miserable

I don't want to be in a 200k debt but that's whats gonna happen

[atomic monolith]

@forest locust combined with first year being free for us domestic uni students.

Pretty good feeling lol

I guess it's a incentivize to stay in your country own uni.

[ashen brook]

@atomic monolith depends on what your own country is

[atomic monolith]

@ashen brook yeah

[ripe elk]

in some european countries you can apply for a loan from the government

[buoyant crane]

[thorny tangle]

is anyone considering applying for a university in Germany?

[lucid widget]

@thorny tangle was aiming for it bc i heard its hella cheap but then u have to stay a whole first year studying lang so no thx

[bronze temple]

@thorny tangle i want to but i cant find any decent ones

[hardy path]

@thorny tangle be careful with German Unis coz some teach only in German 😬

[languid crag]

thats a big oof

[thorny tangle]

I already speak a little german

I find the language easy compared to french

[tawdry quarry]

Is anyone here going to apply through UCAS? I need some help

[ashen brook]

@tranquil summit ^

[tranquil summit]

@tawdry quarry bruv ;-;

[loud viper]

lmaoooo

[tawdry quarry]

Lol somethins wrong with my Dm 😬

[loud viper]

change settings

[buoyant crane]

which unis are the best for BBA in Europe?

[pallid dove]

Hey all, I was fortunate enough to obtain a good result in my AS exams. I am currently applying under UCAS and would like some recommendations on some of the top finance or economics courses (just finance, finance+econ finance+accounting) in the uk. I know of top schools such as LSE but I would like to be able to consider other options.

[tranquil summit]

The guardian 2020 uni standings are out, might be worth a try for a general list, ofc it's not the one and only list but it'll give you a good idea of the big names and stuff @pallid dove

[ashen brook]

check out the times list as well

[buoyant crane]

which unis are the best for BBA in Europe?

[vast flint]

That's the discount version of asking "what universities are good to study on the north hemisphere?"

[tawdry quarry]

Can I apply to NUS with only A-Levels and IG and School Report ? Do they need Sat ?

[buoyant crane]

depends on the course

[ocean ember]

Does anyone know the average time universities at UK need to reply to applications, applied back in early December have received acknowledments from all but have corresponded with only one, about information requests and mailed them my predicted grades, still waiting for something from the other 4

[tranquil summit]

Your predicteds weren't uploaded by you referee? @ocean ember

[ocean ember]

They were

But the unis need official signed and stamped documents

Whenever they ask

[tranquil summit]

Ah oki

They didn't ask me for it tho

Usually 2-4 weeks

Medicine takes longer ofc but you're not med

[urban ruin]

any competitive course at the specific uni, will take more time and the more "popular" or the one with more applications received will also take more and Scottish universities always tend to take a lot @ocean ember I'm still waiting for 3/5 unis at the moment got conditional offers from Sheffield and York and I'm waiting for Glasgow, Aberdeen and Loughborough to respond. Both offers are AAB For Computer Science 😄

[ripe elk]

since many people over here are waiting for their choices to respond

don't feel bad if a certain uni has rejected you

a friend of mine has an offer from Cambridge to read maths, and she was rejected by St Andrews due to "there are extensive competition for places this year, and we deem your application not competitive enough"

[ashen brook]

lmao

[ocean ember]

@ @urban ruin did u hear back from any?

[urban ruin]

yep

[languid crag]

so whats the conclusion??

get into any you wanted to

???

[fair fern]

Hey guys what’s your thoughts on monash Malaysia?

The university and the area

[urban ruin]

@languid crag I got an offer from one which I like a lot, I'm still waiting to hear back from 2 Scottish universities, one being my safety and one in Canada

[languid crag]

Ahhh

[shadow tiger]

why do some UK colleges require you to send your predicted grades separately to them if its already uploaded on UCAS by your counsellor?

[ripe elk]

Really?

That's strange

[tranquil summit]

Med schools usually do idk why

[ripe elk]

weird

we have around 15 people this year applying for med

I didn't hear this from them

[tranquil summit]

ooff the two of my classmates who applied said they had to even send their BMAT scores by email

thats 50% of my class

[ripe elk]

oooof

you guys only have 4 people per class

we have something like 15

[ornate cargo]

we have 8 LOL

[ripe elk]

15 people per class:
8 are chatting on their laptops
5 are playing online games
2 are actually paying attention

sounds fine to me

[ashen brook]

scale that up and you have uni

[ripe elk]

sorry sir for using the wrong channel

[ashen brook]

a bunch of kids messing with their very expensive laptops instead of listening

like i am now

just that my laptop isn't expensive

np at all

[ripe elk]

I belong in the online games category

along with my deskmate

[ashen brook]

lol

[ripe elk]

hey, she pulled me into plants vs zombies first

spoken as if I haven't played online games before

[tranquil summit]

I mean 4 girls and 5 boys

[ripe elk]

oh lol

[primal wagon]

dd anyone apply to the hong ong unversty of scence and technology

[buoyant crane]

Don't know

[ashen brook]

@primal wagon i did last year

[primal wagon]

dd you get n

[ashen brook]

no

[primal wagon]

Can I do you @ashen brook

If you don't mind

[buoyant crane]

wut

[ashen brook]

Wot

[primal wagon]

I applied in late december(main round) didn't get an offer yet

When did you get a reply on your application

@ashen brook

[ashen brook]

I never got

[primal wagon]

Seriously

[buoyant crane]

oof

[primal wagon]

That sucks

Not even a rejection

[buoyant crane]

sad

[ripe elk]

sad

but I've heard that their undergrad lectures are in cantonese tho

[primal wagon]

Ah it's in English

[ripe elk]

oh lol

that's hku

my mistake

[primal wagon]

HKUST is pretty good I applied a bit too late

Regret it a lot

Need to make sure I do all my future applications the moment they open

[ripe elk]

lmao

I started filling out my app to Leiden-TUD

last October

and I haven't completed it by now

[buoyant crane]

is Leiden good?

[ripe elk]

I was only focusing on the TUD part on research

since for the rest, I can self study

[buoyant crane]

what is TUD?

[ripe elk]

TU delft

[buoyant crane]

oh

[primal wagon]

It's just that I can get in to most of the top 50 universities with my alevels results ...... But I can't afford most of them so I didn't apply with predicted cause I won't get schols....so I applied to alberta which is also really good but ranked at about 100

[ripe elk]

try the ones in Europe

[primal wagon]

I really don't know if it's worth staying back 8 months and reapply with my actual results

[ripe elk]

the governments can give you student loans

reasonably priced

[primal wagon]

Or going to alberta and trying to transfer

[buoyant crane]

go to Singapore

wait which major are you applying for?

[primal wagon]

you mean NUS and NTU @buoyant crane

[buoyant crane]

Tell me the major

you are interested in

[primal wagon]

I'm applying for engineering ....either chemical/aerospace/energy

[buoyant crane]

ohh

[ripe elk]

look to your left

see TUD?

their aerospace program is top notch

[buoyant crane]

Don't apply to South America

[ripe elk]

same with the rest

I decided to apply there as a safety because their chemical engineering program is very good

especially on research

[primal wagon]

Are TUD applications still open

[ripe elk]

aerospace, nope

chemical, yes

however

you'll have to study a year of Dutch first

aerospace engineering is taught in english

https://www.tudelft.nl/en/education/programmes/bachelors/

[primal wagon]

Ok no

I'll just submit an application to NTU

Today

[ripe elk]

gl

[primal wagon]

I actually looked at TUD

at he very start

Should have gone through with it

[ripe elk]

aye

[primal wagon]

Is transferring actually a thing one year down

[ripe elk]

lemme check

I only know that Dutch nationals can freely transfer

ah

can't find any info

https://www.tudelft.nl/en/education/programmes/bachelors/ae/bsc-aerospace-engineering/contact/

just write an email to the admissions

[primal wagon]

Lie thx

[ripe elk]

[e-mail]

[primal wagon]

Okie

Do you think I should go to Albert which is a top 100 as well or simply wait for an additional 6 months to try to get into a top 50

[ripe elk]

well

depends on your focus

if your focus is in research, wait

if your focus is in the learning process, you should go to Albert

[primal wagon]

Hmm alberta does have a rather strong research process as well

[ripe elk]

actually, no

only the top 10 in your specific area does

[primal wagon]

?

[ripe elk]

and unis in the UK as compared to the US have rather crap researches

[primal wagon]

I can't afford UK unis anyways

It was anything in Europe or Asia for me

[ripe elk]

it's just an example

[primal wagon]

Alberta was the only good uni with reasonable pricing

[ripe elk]

if you know German, try ETH

[primal wagon]

Do you think I'll be able to learn German in an year

[ripe elk]

if you try, yes

[primal wagon]

Do you know if UBC has a good research program

[ripe elk]

nope

not an expert on Canadian unis

[primal wagon]

🙂 k

the ones in Singapore don't give results based on predicted alevels right

[ripe elk]

no idea

ask the Singaporeans on here

[primal wagon]

Tag someone

[ripe elk]

@forest locust

I think this guy's from Singapore

[primal wagon]

Thanks aurora

Fingers crossed HKUST accepts me .....

Although I'm not hppeful at this point

[buoyant crane]

if you are applying to Singapore

they will now also assess you based on your aptitude for the program applied to.

[forest locust]

@buoyant crane yeah there's a 5 month fast track program that I heard of and if you do well you can continue your degree. Bu do they accept DPs though ?

[buoyant crane]

No that's for A levels

But

I am talking about the aptitude based admission

[forest locust]

@buoyant crane wait so how does this aptitude based admission work ? Do they call you for like interviews and suff to determine your aptitude in your subject of choice ?

[buoyant crane]

I am not sure about that

[humble holly]

Yo anyone going to Alberta/Calgray?

Prolly going to Alberta this year

God willing

[forest locust]

Guys can someone tell me how to convert the canadian cirriuclum to CIE A levels because some unis/colleges just don't have A level requirements and it's so freaking annoying not knowing what the requirements are

[humble holly]

Most of them list out AL requirements under the section of British Patterned Curriculum

[forest locust]

@humble holly yeah but I am talking about the ones that don't

Most of them do but some stupid colleges don't care about other curriculums and only mention their own like OSSD

and then when I go to the int admission requirements it says you need so and so percentage, like that does not help me at all

[atomic monolith]

@humble holly I might go to edmonton/alberta university for a sem, mainly as a exchange.

[humble holly]

Oh nice

I'm low key settled on Alberta

[atomic monolith]

Nice

[cedar hollow]

Wait everyone is gcse?

[atomic monolith]

@cedar hollow nah we are all different levels. I'm finished with cambridge, but some are A levels,some are AS levels etc

[cedar hollow]

No

What i meant nobody is igcse ?

Plus why u taking all that?

Where do u live?

[atomic monolith]

new zealand

[cedar hollow]

And literally ur username is United States of America

[atomic monolith]

Yes cause of memes

[loud viper]

🅱️RUH

[cedar hollow]

So everyone here is western?

Who is taking igcse then?

Not gcse

[ripe elk]

uh

I think nearly 2/3 of us here are taking/has took igcse

CIE don't really operate in the UK/British islands

[cedar hollow]

I know

But who took igcse?

[ripe elk]

count me in...

[cedar hollow]

Where u from?

[ripe elk]

in some international school in east asia

[cedar hollow]

oh ok

soo

Z notes isnt having english as a second language notes

[strange spindle]

lets be honest, you cant really study englis.

english*

your best bet would be to do some past papers @cedar hollow

[primal wagon]

hello

anyone here studyng n hong ong

[cedar hollow]

@strange spindle actually i found some notes of how to achieve a better writing and speaking skill ... thats why i asked for it ...

[fair fern]

Anyone going/ is going to monash Malaysia

Could yall tell me how it is

[urban ruin]

anyone has applied to University of British Columbia, University of York or University of Aberdeen?

[primal wagon]

@urban ruin i applied to UBC in mid jan

[twin river]

Is anyone going to San Antonio for studies starting 2020 Fall

[unique scroll]

@cedar hollow ohh would you be willing to share them xD

[bronze temple]

Anyone applying to uWinnipeg

[rapid spade]

what if i don't get all A* do i still get to go to America?

[strange spindle]

depends

some unis have highr standards

some have lower

but all A*s is mental for uni requirements

[tranquil summit]

I don't think American unis need A*s tbh

[magic tangle]

My counselor told me that when you convert from the British system to the american system, you go up a grade. So if you had a B in the British system, you have an A in the american system

[tranquil summit]

Check the recognition database in pinned messages @delicate scarab

[ashen brook]

What is your SAT score?

That tends to change things a bit

[tranquil summit]

^^

[primal wagon]

I know a friend who got like 1490 and he got a major schol from the University of miami

So I guess it really depends on where you want to go

I think the uvy league unis will check into your grades a bit

But with American unis rn....it's mostly about your Co curriculars, essays, interview, SAT sfore, etc.....

Regardless try to keep a target of 3-5 A*s if you can ... Because that will gurantee large schols in countries like Canada and Hong Kong from what I know

[pallid dove]

Hey guys

Can anyone testify for warwick accounting and finance?

[buoyant crane]

Wdym exactly?

[pallid dove]

Like insider information on whether student satisfaction, course quality, employability is actually what it seems

[ashen brook]

i've been to warwick campus, but not for accounting

[heavy marsh]

best universities for artificial intelligence?

[ripe elk]

MIT

[ripe elk]

chem eng

not a single doubt

and more stuff to study

[still bramble]

Sleeping depends on how fast you can study, finish assignments, projects and less procrastination in your work

[cedar hollow]

Can you get 7 hours at least?

[ripe elk]

no

a friend of mine is in cambridge med school rn

he gets around 4h

[cedar hollow]

ah...

[clever nest]

oof

that sounds rough

[ashen brook]

honestly i have my reservations about medicine as a field

i honestly dont think the effort and pressure is worth the money you're paid

[clever nest]

@ashen brook but most of those who work as doctors don't go to medicine with money on their mind but to save others while at times putting their own lives at risk

the pay-off from doing that as a satisfactory deed or the recognition they earn in society is good enough for them

most of them**

[ashen brook]

fair

perhaps im just not that kind of person

[tranquil summit]

its also a thankless field most of the time

just sayin

[strange spindle]

6 years tho

[tranquil summit]

^^ also lots of sleep deprivation and gruesome cases later

[sullen raven]

some people just love the day to day hustling

so in some ways it can be seen as appealing

[tranquil summit]

tru

[still bramble]

Doesn't school make us act like one?

[thorny cove]

i asked my auntie to tell me her journey becoming a doctor
she said during her freshman years she walked to the library and read a book
i kind of blacked out after that

[zealous wyvern]

Dude i dont know if i should tell this but uhh... Watching someone playing vr really make me dizzy i dont really know why dat happen to me

[pale ginkgo]

best kind of sleep you can hope is 4-5 hours

@indigo saffron

[clever surge]

Hi all. Im going to be applying for US universities as freshman soon. Where will a SAT score of 1470 get me?

[buoyant crane]

the question is too vague

maybe try telling us the course you are looking for

@clever surge

[clever surge]

Im interested in computer science. But i heard its very competitive

[buoyant crane]

yeah

i think you should get a 1500+ in SAT for the course

but 1470 is still a good score

Now depends on the university you want to go to and have shortlisted

@clever surge

[clever surge]

Ah ok. It was my first attempt and i may retake it but im not sure if i can get any higher

[buoyant crane]

but which uni are you targeting?

[versed hazel]

Guys, I'm looking toward the Ivies and Stanford, but I've got a score of 1550 in SAT where my eng is 780 and my math is 770. If I'm not wrong, I believe my math score is insufficient for these locations considering my target course is related to aero engi and/or astro/phy maybe even CS

To cover up for this, assuming I need to, should I give the ACT sometime in July to try and get a 36? Do colleges even consider the math score individually? I don't think I'll get another opportunity for SAT (do tell if I'm wrong)

[still bramble]

You can retake sat if Im not wrong

[buoyant crane]

I think it is best to shift to giving ACT now

as you have given the SAT two times already

[versed hazel]

Okay thank you

[ripe elk]

hmmm

try the ACT

legends said that it's easier to get a 36 on it

at least, according to the people I know who has taken it

and it depends on your nationality, tbh

some of the ivies are strict on their SAT standards, while others aren't

I believe that Stanford isn't one of them

for US nationals applying to Stanford, the entry bar is around 1520

for international students, 1550-1570+

mit and caltech are notorious for being filled to the brim with applicants having 1600/36

what truly matters when applying to stanford is that you have an 'entrepreneur' spirit, I have no idea what that exactly means, but I hope you get the gist of that

[sullen raven]

affirmative action 0w0

has flaws but also has benefits

[ripe elk]

not exactly affirmative action

a girl in our school

she has australian nationality

and she has absolutely crap sats and extracurriculars with no APs at all

she got ED'd to emory

while a friend of mine

with great sats, extracurricular research experience, stellar gpa

was barely ED'd to emory

[ashen brook]

@sullen raven not exactly affirmative action, its the process giving preference to their own nationals

partly cos quotas, party cos institutional racism

[sullen raven]

yeh i was just mentioning affirmative action

[versed hazel]

Right I'll try the ACT then if coronavirus permits it of course

[versed hazel]

Could someone advise me on which unis I have a good chance in based on my interests (aero engi, astro phy, CS), SAT score, IGCSE result, possible IB result and ECs (etc if I'm forgetting anything) and also what I could do to improve my chances?

I'll give the above details if yes
I'm just very concerned with this pandemic going around... It's cancelling all my competitions and projects (ECs) and probably going to cancel my subject test and negatively affect my PGs

[magic drum]

@versed hazel although I cant offer much advice in terms of uni, I can surely say that there are many students around the world going through the same thing so I’m sure universities will alter their criteria accordingly...in the meantime perhaps you could look into online activities or volunteering your computer skills anywhere if possible

[versed hazel]

Okay thank you

[cedar hollow]

Hey guys, was wondering

Is it still possible to apply for UCL?

The UCAS deadline was 14tg

But I want to swap out one choice for UCL

The one that u got rejected

I*

[tranquil summit]

Nope

You can try clearing or Extra

[cedar hollow]

Yeah I was talking about those

One of my friends managed to swap his choice

[tranquil summit]

In that case everyone would be swapping out choices after getting rejected

[cedar hollow]

Then what is the extra about?

Isn't that for letting you swap your choice?

[tranquil summit]

Extra is after results come out

I'm not sure

Tbh ik clearing is if you get all rejected or you say no

I'm not entirely sure what extra is

[cedar hollow]

Only if you get all rejected ?

[tranquil summit]

https://www.ucas.com/undergraduate/after-you-apply/types-offer/extra-choices

Yup or you say no to all of them

[cedar hollow]

There was the option for me to apply to bath via extra

But it was greyed out on UCL

[ashen brook]

@cedar hollow its possible UCL is full

[tawdry quarry]

UCL vs Imperial..Which is better ? Not only for academics but a good social life too

[tranquil summit]

i think Imperial has a better academic standing

social life i mean both are in london so im not so sure

[ripe elk]

both are expensive

well

not as expensive as my college

but still pretty expensive for international students

disregard this if you aren't such a el cheapo person like me

and

Imperial has a pretty bad safety

how do I know, I'm kinda ashamed for saying this

one guy in our school who went to imperial 2 years ago, he was notorious for picking fights over there

he would kick into people's dorms and beat random dudes up

or going to the bar and drug girls

I don't fing know how he still isn't in jail yet

so, I suggest you go to UCL instead

[strange spindle]

wow

[tawdry quarry]

Okay thanks @tranquil summit @ripe elk 👌

I’ve finally got an offer from UCL 😆 gotta make it my firm choice then

[ornate cargo]

goddamn @tawdry quarry congrats !!

[buoyant crane]

congrats !!

[ripe elk]

lol, I withdrew from UCL because it's too slow

[fervent wedge]

Universities are not obliged to hand out offers until the end of March

[ripe elk]

I am a bit impatient

[rocky seal]

What would you choose USA UK or Australia for university as an international student

[strange spindle]

Depends

personally I want to go to UK

But different people have different preferences

[tranquil summit]

^^

australia is generally far from home so keep that in mind

US has more fin aid

[strange spindle]

personally I don't like the us so it's a big no

as for Australia it's very far away and time zones will be mad (I generally don't want a huge time difference between uni and my home country)

UK is good for me because the education is great and it's not that far

[rocky seal]

Ok thanks

If you guys like know any scholarship for USA for international undergraduate mes can you tell me?

[strange spindle]

mes?

[rocky seal]

It’s typo

[strange spindle]

what do you want to study?

[rocky seal]

Actually my sister got into parsons but like the fees is too much

So I was just asking for her

[strange spindle]

she can apply for financial aid no?

[rocky seal]

She wants to study architecture

[tranquil summit]

most unis i think would have a page on their website for fin aid for students

[rocky seal]

They don’t they had merit scholarship

But she didn’t get it

[tranquil summit]

some are scholarships and some are deductions from the fee

[rocky seal]

I have been finding grants and scholarships since like 3 weeks

[tranquil summit]

check if there are any that she qualifies for from her home country?

[rocky seal]

I can’t find any

[tranquil summit]

or from instituions there

[rocky seal]

So I thought you guys might know any scholarship

[tranquil summit]

like british council gives out some for the UK i think

[strange spindle]

their website says there is need-based scholarships availible

(or maybe im on the wrong website)

[rocky seal]

Let me see

[strange spindle]

https://www.newschool.edu/parsons/admission-tuition-financial-aid/

provides a comprehensive program of financial aid services including significant institutional scholarship support based on merit and need. All applicants who file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) are considered for Parsons institutional scholarships.

[rocky seal]

Isn’t fafsa only for us citizens?

[ivory temple]

Anyone applying to Germany this year?

[weary rune]

amity university or heriot watt university dubai

[tranquil summit]

you're looking at unis now? @weary rune

[weary rune]

@tranquil summit yep

for my career counselling class

[tranquil summit]

wow oki look at their rankings?

[weary rune]

amity is very low

[tranquil summit]

for the specific subject

[weary rune]

but its cheaper

[versed hazel]

Amity?! The Indian one?!

[weary rune]

Amity?! The Indian one?!
@versed hazel yes

theres one in dubai

[versed hazel]

Ohhh

[weary rune]

it has a good rating

but the rank is rlly low

[clever nest]

same goes for BITS

has an amazing reputation in pilani, goa and Hyderabad but the one in Dubai is said to be good

[weary rune]

has an amazing reputation in pilani, goa and Hyderabad but the one in Dubai is said to be good
@clever nest yea BITS is rlly good in dubai

i think they got 4/5 or 5/5 from khda

[clever nest]

but the general rep I heard was this

from those who were tutoring for the BITSAT exam

and those who passed out of BITS too

[crisp hare]

hey guys

i am looking into Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University recently

I heard that they have a sublime engineering course

can I get some advice on how do i get into such a competitive university?

I got a 42 IB predicted

and I feel insecure for my position there

I feel like I need more certificates/acknowledgements to showcase myself more to such a prestigious institute

My friends all say that I should be grateful for getting a 42 predicted grade

but i still feel like im not good enough

my teacher Ms Babangida says that I need to be realistic and set my aims lower to a more achievable target or else I will be in the danger zone for getting crippling depression and non-stop constipation

my fellow humans, i am really struggling to reach a realistic goal here

my second choice choice for my university destination will perhaps be the Marondera University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology

but i feel like I wont be good enough for them as rice farming is too good for me

also im not sure if they will have a course focused on agricultural sciences and technology

can someone please clarify this for me?

[strange spindle]

tl/dr pls ty

[mellow venture]

I legit cant tell if this is serious or not lmao

[clever nest]

i legit think its not

except there is an actual uni liek dat

So ... uhm

[crisp hare]

very insightful

[primal wagon]

Did anyone apply for hk universities and got in this year....if so what’s the status of your student visas

@Auri @ashen brook and this question is also open to everyone else...

King's College London vs University Of Leeds vs University of Warwick vs Loughborough...

Considering the fields of computer science and electronic engineering and well everything else that matters like accomodation, student life...

[buoyant crane]

The first two I guess

[ocean ember]

Any specific one for any reason?

[buoyant crane]

umm because Warwick is better for business

than cs

[ocean ember]

Hmmm

Anything about employability?

[tranquil summit]

Leeds is a more happening place than Warwick

But think about if you want the hustle and bustle of London

Living alone finding accomodation will prob be difficult

Either sacrifice on distance or price

Loughborough idt is that great but not sure

[ashen brook]

if you want affordable accomodation in london, youll almost certainly have a 30-45 min train commute

[ocean ember]

Hmmm

[versed hazel]

I think university of Leeds has this really good extended essay course that's super helpful for IB

[ripe elk]

idk anything about EECS

anyways

[buoyant crane]

hmmm

[ripe elk]

London's accommodation fees are rather hefty

it's not worth the money to go to KCL tbh

[tranquil summit]

Also tuition in KCL is v high

[ripe elk]

yep

just like the other London unis

[tranquil summit]

Warwick is like 25k I think

[ripe elk]

that I'm unsure

[tranquil summit]

Leeds is 21k

[buoyant crane]

ye

[ripe elk]

but I've heard that the dorms in warwick's are nice

[buoyant crane]

Warwick is more known for its business

programs

though

[ripe elk]

idd

[tranquil summit]

But they've got good sciences too afaik

[ripe elk]

hmm

idk

but KCL's rather worthless if you think of the quality vs price ratio

I was applying on UCAS last August/September

and I was thinking on putting KCL as my fifth choice

[tranquil summit]

You already applied to oxford tho-

[ripe elk]

the tutor went: you are only putting KCL just because everybody else does, right?

that's a different story

[tranquil summit]

AhEm

[ripe elk]

unless

you're doing music

then KCL's decent

or was it royal holloway?

can't remember

[ashen brook]

then KCL's decent
@ripe elk KCL also has a pretty good nursing course i think

But for CS no, KCL isnt worth paying the London premium

https://www.wsj.com/articles/cornell-to-drop-sat-and-act-for-admissions-next-year-due-to-coronavirus-11587578439

[versed hazel]

This is truly depressing news

[buoyant crane]

I am happy

[versed hazel]

I am sad

So are probably most the students who worked hard to get whatever score they have rn on the SAT

[slow violet]

I mean @versed hazel I do agree with you on that

But you have to keep in mind how terrible of an indicator the SAT and ACT are

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjVVwMGJ9S8

This might help

Plus studying for the ACT and SAT teach you no more than how to get great scores-

If anything that's most useless thing ever 😂

[versed hazel]

Yeah I totally agree with you
Luckily I didn't have to work more than a couple weeks on it... But I feel really bad for the people who spent so long and also lots of money..

[buoyant crane]

yeah but Cornell's acceptance rate might go down

[thorny cove]

i applied for Malaysian bcs its 6000RM cheaper

applying for uni is canserr

[sullen raven]

@thorny cove you would still be eligible for Malaysian fee status i think, unless if you've been studying outside the country for an x amount of time?

i think you would still get Malaysian fee status which is good :P

[thorny cove]

ooo tenk u for confirming

[ionic iris]

anyone know of unis in the US that offer scholarships to international students

merit-based ofc

specifically if i'm looking to do premed

[strange spindle]

a lot do

idk specifics tho soz

[ionic iris]

aw 😭

most unis i've looked up require US citizenship to apply for scholarships

[ripe elk]

tbh, I wouldn't recommend premed as a course for potential medical students

but the choice is yours

[neat flint]

Does anyone know what subjects I should take for IB if i want to study computer engineering

[still bramble]

I think this is the wrong channel but go with maths HL computer science HL and Physics HL
then your Sl's can be english your 2nd language and another subject

just speak in the right channel next time please

[versed hazel]

They don't have the IB role so they can't

To be more specific, go with Math AA HL, and like waffles said, CS HL and Physics HL, assuming you have these choices available @neat flint Just try to go for something that you're absolutely certain you'll be able to do well in easily for the SLs otherwise they'll just weigh you down unnecessarily when you can focus on the HLs (like me with economics)

[blissful reef]

@ivory temple coolio, what course are you planning on taking. Are you learning German rn ?

Any tips/suggestions for university research

[jade hull]

-Pick the major u want
-look up unis with good reputation in that major
-Read through the uni's programme to make sure it's what you want
-email them if you have questions
-you can also go get consultations from those education agents too it's free(in Malaysia at least)

[buoyant crane]

ask me

[jade hull]

Talk to teachers about it since usually teachers can put in a good word and help you

[arctic flame]

ask me
dont

[buoyant crane]

why?

[strange spindle]

i found some good unis from a uni expo we had here

it was p cool

[buoyant crane]

dont
@arctic flame ?

[jade hull]

Also there's some schools who have connections to a lot of unis (like my high school) so you can ask the higher ups if they allow it

[buoyant crane]

same

[ornate cargo]

• make a list of all your current stats (grades, SAT scores, TOEFL scores, ranking, stuff like that) & your ECs (extracurriculars) and also make a list of any awards you have

also, don't forget abt your EFC (basically your budget)

make an excel spreadsheet, and based on this info, look for safety, reach, and match schools

[strange spindle]

big brain time

[jade hull]

Also there's plenty of professors and professionals online like ig/fb/Twitter so you can dm them about it too

When i was unsure about taking env.sci I found a Harvard env.sci professor on Instagram and dmed him

[ornate cargo]

yes! and connect to students from the uni so u can ask more qs

[jade hull]

He helped me quite a bit too

Everyone's your resource tbh u just gotta ask them nicely

Don't be afraid to reach out is all I'm saying

[strange spindle]

i was thinking of going to uni of calgary

but then my brother went to calgary

[arctic flame]

@arctic flame ?
u know man

[strange spindle]

so i dont want to go to calgary

[jade hull]

i found some good unis from a uni expo we had here
@strange spindle those are great too!!

They're usually very helpful and would introduce you to the uni's they're pitching for

Always check around the news to see if there's any education fairs and all that

My city has like a handful in a year

[tranquil summit]

But in my experience they don't give you too much info on the uni itself unless you're going to ask specific questions, or are just looking for uni names

[strange spindle]

yeah that is true

[tranquil summit]

Or if you're going with friends and compete with collecting as many freebies as you can

Then it's fun

[jade hull]

Oh yeah hahha

[buoyant crane]

go to insta

follow uni

attend webinars

[jade hull]

They bribe us with food too

[buoyant crane]

go ham on them by asking questions

[jade hull]

Also u can follow their uni meme pages too hehe

[buoyant crane]

just chill with students

I followed a uni

and now there multiple students associations are following me

[jade hull]

Basically if you don't know, ask

A lot of ppl are really willing to help you as long as. You're polite about it

[lethal drift]

Hey I was recently looking for universities to apply to, and the requirements say for example “ AAB when taking 3 a levels or BBBB when taking 4 a levels “ and I was wondering what if I got AABC but I took 4 a levels, would I still qualify for the requirements ?

Like is it possible for me to show them only 3 of my A levels when I took 4?

[strange spindle]

hmm

not sure

[tranquil summit]

Like is it possible for me to show them only 3 of my A levels when I took 4?
@lethal drift you'll have to scan your certificate so no

[thorny cove]

@sullen raven did you have to pay Bayaran Menunjukkan Kemasukan(BMK) when u registered?

it costs like 300RM and for whatt reasonnn

[sullen raven]

uhhh no man, just an application fee of 150rm

[thorny cove]

ouh ok scaam

[lethal drift]

@tranquil summit Then is it possible for them just to consider 3 of my A levels when i took 4? so i can meet the requirements of taking 3 A levels

[tranquil summit]

Tbh I have no clue

You'd be better off emailing them

It seems like a loophole though

Doubt they'd allow it

Esp since when you scan your certificate it's there

[unkempt star]

most unis in UK ask for 3... but if u add 4 and their requirements is say AAB... and U got AABC I dont think they wyd reject. Unless they have subject specific requirement, like if they want an A in math and u got C in math... sorry mate not ur luck

[ruby pebble]

So I'm doing A levels in november and getting my results in february ucas deadlines is around august unfortunately. Are there any other application windows after february that I can apply in order to go to uni in 2021?

[tranquil summit]

you can apply directly to unis i think before march

[ruby pebble]

oh really? So if I apply at the end of feb I could go to uni in 2021?

[tranquil summit]

dont you get them mid jan?

Nope

[ruby pebble]

There are additional fees right?

Humm ook

[ruby pebble]

But it is possible to push the deadline?

[tranquil summit]

you can apply before the jan 15 deadline

to push the deadline you'll have to contact the uni directly not thru ucas

[ruby pebble]

Also Uni of melbourne

I'm not gonna get predicted grades from my school cuz like I'm doing the exams earlier

heyeyeyyeey

yall I wanna know if there's some kinda discrimination when applying to unis as a private candidate

compared to applying as a regular candidate

[tranquil summit]

idts

as long as you have your grades

and you have extra curriculars

[grim quail]

might be a problem if u r applying in india tho...

[tranquil summit]

immigration wise they might ask for a certificate from a school

which depending on where you live can be relatively easily obtained

[unkempt star]

Hey guys... I need advice on applying to US colleges from A-Levels. I know I have to do the SATs but apart from that what are ways to increase my chances and what colleges are good for say 1350+ scores. Are SAT 2 required despite having A-Levels? What are ways to get financial aids? Etc anything wud help plz.

[tranquil summit]

SAT 2 depends on the uni afaik

[versed hazel]

^

[fast thicket]

@unkempt star The US side often look for all-rounders, so sure, take dat SAT and (often optional) SAT2 in a subject you are good at. But make sure you work extra hard on your application essays to show them who you are as a person, with interest, thoughts, etc. And pray your recommendation letters are good.

A college/uni's financial aid may not be available for NON-US citizens, BUTTTT there are usually many scholarships by the uni/college or other organizations! You just have to google hard and crawl all over the uni websites.

[unkempt star]

thanks!

[ruby pebble]

@ruby pebble u re doing A levels this oct? ME too! Wondering the same question

But I guess its about coveribg the content and practising, quality over quantity eh?

[thorny cove]

quick questions
what is credits

[forest locust]

Credit is basically how much weight a particular course is given. The credit system varies from uni to uni but in my uni I have a total of 120 credit hours for 4 years which means I have to take 30 credits per year. My courses are divided into 3 credit hrs and 6 credit hrs courses. 3 credit hr courses last for 1 semester while 6 credit hr courses last for 2 semesters. @thorny cove

[thorny cove]

tysm for the brief explanation and example

but i think i still need to watch a 20 minute long of utube videos explaining credits 😐

[royal ridge]

So if a university asks for a "Certifying Statement of Results" from the exam board, will every grade I recieved and/or exam I sat for with that board be shown?

I ask because in a previous session I did 2 modular exams with Pearson Edexcel IAL: P1 Math and Unit 1 biology (out of 6 modules respectively)

Due to certain personal circumstances, I achieved a U in P1 Math and a C in Unit 1 Biology

Going forward I plan to do the other 5 modules for these subjects, as well as a full IAL in Chemistry and Arabic, and to resit the 2 exams I screwed up in October along with the other AS Modules

If I resit those 2 modules and get a better grade, will the better grade show up on the CSoR sent to the university or both the better and trash grade? I ask because I worry if they see a "U" on my record despite resitting and achieving a much much better grade it will be held against me

I was originally under the impression that only your best grade shows up but if every grade does even those you resit I might be in trouble

After doing a bit of googling, I managed to find a document that references my predicament, can anyone who recieved a CSoR after resitting a module confirm?

[ashen brook]

do y'all know if manchester uni is good for someone planning to immigrate 😔✌️
@cedar hollow which uni you go to has nobearing on whether you can immigrate

the key to immigrating is getting a job in the UK after you're done with uni

namely, a job that sponsors your Tier 2 work visa

that visa gives you the path to settlement after i think a decade of living in the UK

[cedar hollow]

my extracurricular activities suck but my weighted GPA is 4.3 out of 4. Which unis u guys think i should apply for ? (I'll major in CS and/or Maths most likely)

[mellow venture]

Bro which country tho

Like it depends where u wanna go

[cedar hollow]

USA definitely

[fast thicket]

If you care about ranking/prestiges in case it links to job chances with tech companies, go search those US ranking websites for unis top in CS/Math (you'll see things like Purdue, U o Arizon, MIT, etc).... but be aware that these are huge Uni's where the prof's focus is on research, and you'll probably be in a big lecture hall.

If you don't care about ranking, but want close contact with profs and maybe better guided undergrad(?), search for smaller colleges (that focus more on teaching undergrads and not so much on research). The price tag numbers are usually more expensive, but they tend to also have more scholarships.

Note that some unis (especially top ones) care a lot about not just the GPA, but who you are as a whole person: personality, character, extracurricular, culture, etc.... you'll need to show these in your application essays, with as much importance as reporting your GPA.

[broken fern]

which is a good computer science uni in where one of you have been to

[winged wagon]

nanyang technological university

it's a pretty highly ranked uni, i think #15-16 in the world

it's also not costly and you can cut down costs even further if you sign a government bond

[tranquil summit]

Also very selective

But amazing place from what I've heard

[ripe elk]

I thought of applying to NTU back in A1

but eventually didn't because of time reasons

[opal sparrow]

yeah singapore in general i've heard is very selective and like cut throat

Germany and france have some good unis too

but like the language is different

[ripe elk]

my compulsory suggestion to anyone applying to europe

cough the netherlands cough

they don't have a clean-cut grade requirement, but the undergraduate workload itself acts as a student filter

it's basically a loose enter, strict exit

the dutch government used to have a student loan mechanism (before 2018) where the loan will automatically turn into a gift for dutch nationals if the student successfully completed their undergrad degree

but as I've said, the research universities in the NL are hard to graduate from for the average layperson (that's why only ~20% of the dutch high school population enter a research university)

many did eventually dropout, and had to pay off their loans

[sweet haven]

I chose to study the A level course to study at the europe/UK/USA parts. But after many changes in between, my parents(asian) doesnt want to send me off to those parts and said I should pick a school close to SEA. So i decided to pick my dream country which Ive always wanted to study at, Japan. Bonus info for those who mite find this useful: finnished the national Japanese test N3 during my IG year and currently(but really slowly)completing N2 so my japanese can be considered quite ok to study in japan.
The problem is I am halfway through my A level course and I dont want to drop it so I was wondering are there any top tier schools in Japan I can apply with A levels?

Also I forgot to add this but I plan to choose the economics or business management/entrepreneurship path

z may i ask where are you from.
@remote wasp Pakistan - but I was born n raised in Saudi Arabia

[remote wasp]

Ohh cool

[mellow venture]

@orchid chasm i recommend not stopping half way if u wanna do uni there thats cool but moving to places amidst something really important can be complicated

Just my 2 cents on the situation might be better ask more people

[fast thicket]

Oooh I had a A-Levels friend who got a scholarship to go Japan uni!

[blazing hollow]

Which Universities in NZ would you recommend?

[ripe elk]

@orchid chasm I think for non-Japanese citizens, A-levels are accepted

check out the individual university webpages
