UNI: Overseas Exchange Tips

Welcome! You must’ve gotten super excited after attending the sharing session by GEM Explorer /hearing stories from your seniors and now you'd like to get out there and experience studying abroad.     My overseas exchange mainly covers the perspective of an NTU CBE student who went on a semester exchange (GEM Explorer) in year 3 semester 1 (Winter Semester, Oct – Jan).

UNI: Before Uni

This post will cover mainly things to look out for in school, my reflection on the modules I've taken in years 1 & 2, along with tips for all of these modules. Since there are ALOT of things to cover about uni, I suggest you also search for other blogs/vlogs that talk about their daily life in uni, and how they cope with the curriculum too.   ______________________________________________________________________________ Congrats! You made it to NTU and the course of your choice! Now you might be curious what's next for you? Do you mug 24/7 months before the semester starts? Or should you sign up for every single orientation camp in existence? Here is my personal take on what you could do to help you with your transition to uni-life.
