But I need confirmation from the masses...
Taking TOEFL costs money. And the school say, if I want to waive the requirement, I have to show them proof from my school that my schooling years is taught in english.
But some requires, foreign students, Singaporeans or not to take it.
So from confirmation I can gathered, then I can be assured and happy that the school will accept the letter that I will be getting from MOE. -

didn't have to also -
let me give you a tip about NA schools hor ... they are very flexible one ... even though there is black and white, you can always ask to speak to someone, explain your circumstances, and get away with a lot of things ... like electives, pre-requisites, etc etc ... if you can show prior knowledge for certain subjects or requirements, you can often get a waiver or what not ... cannot think like a Singaporean over there .... rules are meant to be circumvented and bent over there ... (note: not broken )Originally posted by mhcampboy:Ask already...

I thought very tip top one...
My US friend did mentioned, excluding top schools like Harvard or NYU or Ivy League etc etc, basically the school wants your money. True ar??
I want to speak to them also. I already called twice long distance. Yesterday was voice mail saying they are on holidays for THANKSGIVING!! Which was 3 weeks ago.
The just now, I managed to talk to an indian lady I presume, and her english quite bad can! So I asked her about my situation, explaining my education system and where I am from all that, she immediately replied saying the same thing I read on the internet. "International students are required to send a TOEFL test results bla bla...."
I explained again and then she kept quiet. Say she will transfer me to her supervisor and guess what, she put me on VOICEMAIL!! Telling me to leave a message and phone number and they will get back to me.... -
Email their Head of Admissions.

i agree with fatum. u can sometimes get away with rules.
over here is : ASK!!!! what can possibly happen? they say no lo. if u no ask, u won't get or will never know.
good luck campy. don't go to small town hor. i know of someone who did and then really cham. in the end, finish first year, head to city. -
Definitely don't need for USA, UK, Canada and Australia.
-
no need. but my malaysian friends go aus need.

Nope, didn't have to do it either because I already took GP. One annoying thng was that English was a compulsory first-year subject for all overseas students. I told the tutor point blank that it was a waste of an elective for me.
-
Oh thank you y'all.....
I guess I am more.... confident that I do not need to take TOEFL....
Expensive you know -

I had to take the SAT and TOEFL back in the late 80s as a prerequisite for admission into the U for my undergrad studies in the US. The grad school did not require them, though.
