Happenings in BBA Office

It would appear that it is quiet on all fronts in the BBA Office. On the surface, it may look as though I have neglected the blog, or the original enthusiasm has died off. No way! It's just that I have reached a point that I need to prioritize, as any human being being S-T-R-E-T-C-H-E-D.

3 fantastic BBA students have joined us as helpers to assist us to tide over this period - (in no order of favoritism) Alex, Cheryl, and Choon Kiong. They are simply godsend !

With their help, we have mustered and mounted interviews for Discretionary Admissions today.

19 interviews for me today (more to go in the coming few days. I need S-T-R-E-N-G-T-H) ....

5 applied to NUS and NTU, but not SMU; 1 applied to NUS and SMU, not NTU; 2 whom we are considering for discretionary admissions have straight offers from SMU Business. Similarly, 2 for NTU Business.

Well, this is just a small sample size. From the looks of it, it looks not all students apply to all three universities, or that matter, the same program. A small test of the hypothesis which was put forth earlier in the blog.

I've talked to a friend from SMU two days ago. I must say that I was very surprised by the quality of their presentations. They incorporated videos into most of their presentations and their powerpoint slides are certainly better than what I've seen in NUS Business School for the past year. I think SMU has a clear focus on presentation skills and teamwork whereas NUS is trying to help its students master both presentation skills and knowledge...

Yes, we are still very much focused on the big 'C' Content.

Hey, where's your post you were supposed to contribute? ;-)

hey!
jia you for rest of the interviews. well, i think NUS, NTU and SMU have their different strengths and weaknesses. Overall NUS and NTU seems to have a competitive advantage thanks to their strong alumni support. Plus, NUS is globally recognized!
