| I didn't even send in my prelim grades to the schools I applied for (too ugly). They didn't seem to care for the most part. | |

| Yeah I might do that, to get credits, although I'm also thinking that it would do me good to sort of re-learn all those Math/Science/Econs stuff which I've conveniently forgotten after A Levels..
My prelim grades were quite ugly too. That's why I almost panicked when I found out that we had to send in those as well. | |

| My prelims were much worse than my CTs. Given that the US liked to see a trend of improvement, I didn't send both...thank god for NS. (*gets struck by lightening*) | |

| Hmm, 100%Tuna, I finally realised the prestige of SIA scholarship over say, A*Star YRAP. You get to fly on SIA vs Vietnam Air or Air India. Hahaha *amused*
Lisieux - I'm J2. Lol. I wanna go MIT tho xd | |

| CHEH... Lol, I thought SIA scholarship means you get to fly SIA home la. Now I recall, my Vietnamese friend did share that you only get sponsored flights once every two years. Geez... | |
