National University of Singapore - NUS Speciality : Biomedical Sciences
programme: Toxicology

At NUS, I quickly realized that academics alone wouldn’t cut it—you need to hustle. My professors were industry veterans, and their connections helped me land an internship at a top fintech firm. The workload is intense, but study spaces like Central Library make it manageable. I loved the cultural diversity: my project group had members from four continents! Also, the food—whether it’s mala from Fine Food or prata at The Deck—kept me going during all-nighters. The pressure is real, but the growth? Unparalleled.
