Hi, I’m trying to decide between NUS Engineering and NTU Engineering, and I wanted to hear honest opinions from seniors or current students.

For context, I took PCME and my grades are ABB/C (Math A, Physics B, Chem B, GP C). From what I’ve checked, I should be able to enter engineering in both National University of Singapore (NUS) and Nanyang Technological University (NTU).

I’m mainly deciding based on a few things:

1. School life / student experience
   I’ve heard that NTU has a stronger campus life since most people stay in hall and the campus is more self-contained, while NUS is more spread out. Is that true? How different is the social life?

2. Facilities and learning environment
   Since NTU is known for engineering, are the labs, workshops, and facilities noticeably better than NUS? Or are they roughly similar?

3. Education quality / teaching
   For engineering students, which school actually teaches better? Things like:
   
   - professor quality
   - curriculum structure
   - opportunities for research/internships

4. Why many top students still go to NUS Engineering?
   This is something I’m curious about. NTU is famous for engineering, but I notice many people with very strong results still choose NUS engineering. Is it because of prestige, opportunities, location, or something else?

If you’re currently studying engineering at either NUS or NTU, I’d really appreciate hearing about:

- your daily life as an engineering student
- pros and cons of your school
- whether you would choose the same uni again

Thanks a lot! 🙏
