if you are not a 4 As student (with at least B for GP / KI), I don't think NUS will even bother to consider you as an applicant
You can go overseas for your medical degree, but please stay there and don't come back, I only want top quality doctors here
if overseas then graduate summa cum laude lehcan anot
or still cannot fight with sg doctor
and are u sure sg doctors all is nus one

chem engineering dont need interview,medicine need.medicine also requires you to write an essay in 45 min and take a personality test IF you get through the interview round.so i guess medicine is harder to get in.chem engineering requires very good results too,however.there's an acquaintance of mine,she took Alvls and couldn't get into medicine.so she went to the uni to ask whether there's any chance she can get into the course (she really wants it).they told her that if one takes nursing in poly and get really good grades,then take another aptitude test,she may be able to upgrade to medicine.i don't really know the details,but it doesn't sound very realistic to me.

I have a friend who is a doctor-in training at NUS. His parents told me his school fees were like more than 80k and they have to take lots of loans.
I told them dont bluff. Your child must have scholarships. They told me no...
fees now even more expensive, up to $90k, cos it's now $18k a year, so x 5 = $90k

btw, i found this
Two poly students accepted into NUS medicine course (2007)FOR the first time, two polytechnic students have been accepted into what is possibly the toughest university course here to get into - the faculty of medicine of the National University of Singapore(NUS).
The Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine will take in 250 aspiring doctors this year. It had received 32 applications from 32 polytechnic students and selected Mr Soong Jun Wei and Mr Ron Ng. Both are 20-year-olds from Ngee Ann Polytechnic. Jun Wei graduated with a diploma in biotechnology while Ron has a diploma in biomedical laboratory technology.
Unlike junior college students who apply with A level results, polytechnic students are assessed on their polytechnic results(80 per cent) and O-level grades(20 per cent). But like all other applicants, they had to take an essay test and go through two rounds of interviews. This article from geraldtan.com

June 18, 2007Possible, the chances are like 2 poly students in NUS med faculty's 50 years of history.
Pray hard that you will be one of the next 2 candidates for the next 50 years

Just for those interested, the two courses are quite tough.

Indeed I am wrong, H3 is not included and triple science is no longer needed, my apologies. But do take note that even your contrast subject will be taken into account...so have fun.

Most of these foreign doctors are based in the government clinics.
Some of them are not up to standard.
