Biological sciences, UCL or NUS?

[Jyouie]

I've got offers from UCL to study biological sciences and NUS to study Life Sciences respectively....can anyone give me advice on this? having headaches making the decision....

UCL

1) if $ is not a problem
2) because i think studying in singapore is not the best thing that can happen to anybody (though a lot of current NTU NUS malaysian students will disagree)

From:
someone who is absolutely shallow, who lived with a singaporean for one year in the same apartment (not by choice)

PS: as for quality of education, I absolutely have no idea, but i am traumatized by living with a singaporean

Never been to Singapore and never research on NUS, so take my opinion with a great pinch of salt. I think to some extent it really boils down to your personality and goals.

I am also traumatized by one Singaporean at my uni

(e.g. When professor bought pizza for the class -- he said out loud "must eat more. You already pay for the tuition.")

I was interviewed for NUS ASEAN scholarship. Personally I found the interviewer's attitude to be unpleasant. NTU interviewers were really agreeable however. It was a pleasant experience actually. Actually learnt something out of it.
