they won't survive if they didn't leave their elitist egos at the front door.
and this is not surprising, really, last time, at SP, my engineering math lecturer was MP tan cheng bock's wife, their dotter, was an SP graduate also, who later went onto harvard. that's years ago, when these kids were in diapers.

Don’t worry about Tookie
Rabbits don’t die as easily as Chinchillas
Most animals are like that in a new environment.
Give her a week or so and she will settle down

Judging from her temperament and diet, I would say she is a palm sized cat -

They only interview NP students meh?
Like so many from NP
-
lastly another crossover gp - but minority.
From IP prog jumpship to poly.
I think hor, in no time all those top O level scorers would be spread out across JC & poly.

Actually most of the top scorer's apply from NP most of the years that is the caseIn fact my cousin from TP tried NP's test papers before to compare to TP's standard
That was like 5-7 years ago and he said NP's standard for the tests are very much higher than TP.
He say TP's paper is very much easier in comparison.

poly was too fun ... too much ECA.
I did very little studying at all and it's a miracle I never ended up with any sub papers at all .....
I think all the four polys should be roughly the same bah ......
but I am wary of all these new and very niche diploma courses sprouting up. Too specialized, and you may end up with something you don't really like, a specialty fad that quickly becomes obsolete and unmarketable, or worse, find it hard to get professional accreditation later on.

As I see some of e niche courses, most are ok.
But some aren't.
