Good luck for A levels
Think carefully about your university choices
From reddit!! Very good information
Hi!! Roughly consolidated this list based on advice from seniors and cut off points for universities for this year!! I know how confusing uni admissions can be so decided to try and consolidate some info to show that there are actually many possible courses even for those who did not score superbly.
Take note, this list is non exhaustive! Didn't include SIT, SUTD as i'm not sure about how they do admissions. And of course there may be many other possible pathways one can take besides what's on this list!
Do refer to Bit.ly/uni_igp for all precise cut off points when making decision on which course to apply for. Remember, uni's admit by rank points, not by grade boundaries aka AAA/A. Even if your letter grades are not the same, if your rank point is same or higher, you stand a good chance of being accepted.
Disclaimer: Do not rely solely on this list I have created to determine which courses you're applicable for. I may have missed out some courses, & I didn't include SIT or SUTD.

Extra Note
NTU & NUS have something called the Qualifying English Test (QET). SMU does not administer this test
• NTU requires you take the test if your GP grade is S/U or if KI grade is a U
• NUS requires you take the test if your GP grade is D/E/S/U or if KI is a E/S/U
• After taking test, your grade will determine if you have to take extra English mods or not. If you do well, you will not have to take the extra mod.
• SMU: If you did not pass your GP, you can still apply. They will take into consideration your performance in the other A-Level subjects on a competitive and selective basis.
• NUS has stricter requirements for GP compared to NTU, whilst SMU has no requirements at all. Another small consideration to think about if you did not do well for GP/KI. If you are willing to go for this small test with the possibility of taking an extra module in your 1st year of uni.
