What is the best school that I am able to get in? My dream school is the top 30s like NYU

Hi xraymance,

I thought in America things are different, you can study a masters in a different field from bachelor’s. Lots of people I know studied engineering bachelor’s then MBA. Then you are telling me that I am stuck at Business forever? I can never apply to other programs? I would rather kill myself then touch another subject in Business.
It is not my fault that I can’t have a degree in astronomy, there is no such course in Singapore. But for physics, are you advising me to take another bachelor’s? That would take very long…

As for the top 30 or 50, well, it’s just something I need to persuade my parents. They will be more likely to support me if they actually “heard” of the school. I love it if they could support me, I rather not they be disappointed. Personally, I don’t care much about rankings.

I thought a masters degree is just 2 years anyway, so if their requirements are so high, why would they accept liberal arts people and not me?
