But in Singapore, maybe in other Asian countries too, getting a good grade is not that hard, but it is very time consuming. For me personally it is a choice between high GPA or personal projects, achieving both is almost impossible.
- jchonphoenix 17y agoYea, you could be right. I'm just talking about American Universities because thats where my experience is.
