Hello All,

Can someone please help me with what financial documents should be submitted along with the application to NUS? I am planning to fund my MBA with education loan and some savings. My savings and annual salary do not add up to total cost incurred for MBA. What should I do in this case?

Just attaching your salary slip will do ...
You can take up the loan after that. even I did the same

I think you have around 2 weeks to accept the offer. A look at the last year's thread may shed more light on this.
Or may be wait till mid - late January to find out from the admits of this year :)

Here are the questions for NUS:

1. How long have you known the applicant and in what capacity/context?
2. In your opinion, what is the candidate's leadership potential for the next five years?
3. Please provide three memorable achievements the applicant attained in your company.
4. Kindly provide an instance when the applicant exhibited any one of the the following qualities. (a) Entrepreneurship (b)Leadership (c) Exceptional work performance
5. From what you understand of the applicant, what are his/her main motivations or interests in life?

Not sure about NBS, but I think all of the recommendation questions are on the same lines.

Do NUS need class X & XII marks? I don't see any space to fill up those data...Another thing is what is Registration Number / Test Report Form Number of GMAT? There is appointment number & GMAT ID number on the mark sheet...

Hi, I am new to this forum, monitoring all experts speech and valuable ideas. Indeed this is my first post.
I am preparing for GMAT full time, have 2.2 yrs of work exp. Have actively participated in Social activities and PM for few NGO projects.
Just to know, what is a good GMAT score accepted by NUS and NTU. I know there isn't any good or bad score, but there would be some minimum score to be considered as an applicant?
When everyone are talking about their final interview or their final stage, am asking the minimum score to apply :x i know am mad.
Many thanks for the reply(if any) :-D

Raghavhari,

As an Indian, which is the most represented category among b-school applicants (yes, Indians would apply if there was a b-school in Iceland or the North Pole also), its always wise to target for a score above 700.
There are two important factors considered for NUS : they prefer candidates with 5+ years WE. Secondly, they prefer some international experience.
If you are planning to apply this year, you may fall short on both these counts.
