Hi! Thank you so much, this video has been really useful for me while writing. You give a really good basis for the structure and I really needed that. I have one doubt, and it is about use of sources and information. Do I need to investigate concepts or theories, and give a detailed account of them in this? Or is it lax about it and I can just talk from a general point of view? If this is something obvious, I am sorry. But I really need to know.
@nadventuresАй бұрын
Hi, I don't really understand your question, so please let me know if my answer makes no sense to you haha I think it depends on what you're using those infos for. If as explanations to support your points, then some kind of detail is needed. If as examples, the can be less detailed as long as your point is conveyed clearly.

@@nadventures answer it. It was badly formulated so thanks for the effort ;) The doubt comes from me having trouble to distinguish between my Philosophy class and ToK. Not because the clases are similar but because of my own personal thoughts on both subjects. So I kind of wondered if I had to work with the same amount of theories as I do in philosophy. For example working with different specific author and such things. Maybe, the question would be, how much of those type of things are needed, if at all? Also, sorry for the intensity 🙇♀️

'Connotation' and 'subtext' are linguistic jargon, could you explain them in the context of your exhibition ? The reasoning that miscommunication creates beauty is debatable, usual results are misunderstanding, lack of cultural sensitivity, provocation and taking offence.
@nadventures2 ай бұрын
Hii, honestly can't remember exactly what I was thinking while writing that anymore, buttttt... 1) There isn't any special context/meaning for those two words (i.e. connotation is the literal connotation, it's saying that there's an implied meaning) 2) TOK exhibitions (and essays actually) are not meant to give definite answers. It's the arguments, analysis, and explanations you make that matters, not the conclusion.

Thank you very much, Nadya. I'm curious about whether you receive a tuition grant and what you believe are the criteria for obtaining one (both academically and non-academically). I ask because I'm aiming to attend NTU or NUS (M25, currently doing the IB). I've also watched your other videos and found them very helpful. However, one video where you mentioned feeling heartbroken due to scoring below the median in your math module made me think that your GPA might not be very high. Yet, in another video, you mentioned achieving a GPA between 4.7 and 4.83 when transferring majors, which has left me a bit confused. Could you please explain how the scoring system works?
@nadventures2 ай бұрын
Hi! I chose to not get a tuition grant due to the 3-year bond that comes with it, but I know I would be able to get it if I choose to. Honestly though, now that I'm in Singapore, I don't think the bond is that bad, because I'm okay with working in Singapore now (it was scary thing for me back then). As for NUS scoring system, the website provides a very good explanation (www.nus.edu.sg/registrar/academic-information-policies/modular-system). I exercised the S/U option for that math module (www.usp.nus.edu.sg/curriculum/academic-structure/satisfactory-unsatisfactory-s-u-options/).

@nadventures2 ай бұрын
@@minhanhle2863 Significantly higher workload, I don't think so. However, it depends on how hard you studied during IB and whether you choose to overload in NUS (I've been overloading for all semesters except y2s1, so I'm constantly busy). As for IB grade, the international students I know are all in the 43-45 range. The range is way lower for Singaporeans (less than 40 may still be acceptable for them but not for international). And yes, they don't care about predicted grades.

@@mwakamweezymwansa500 Oh I see, I think the admissions officer wanted to gauge whether you are willing to accept lower offers. My guess is that some students cannot afford the tuition fee if they do not get a certain amount, or they already have another scholarship offer, so they plan to reject the offer if they get a low amount. The university might have realised this and decided to add that question so that if your qualifications grant you a lower amount, but you do not want a lower amount, they will not give you an offer. Choose based on your own situation :)
