Frequently Asked Questions

How is the Singapore A-Level University Admission Score (UAS) calculated?

UAS is calculated from your best 4 H2 subjects (or 3 H2 + 1 H1) plus GP and PW. Each grade has a point value: A=20, B=17.5, C=15, D=12.5, E=10, S=5, U=0. H1 subjects are worth half points. The maximum UAS is 90 points. Most local universities use UAS for admission, with different courses requiring different minimum scores.

What's the difference between H1, H2, and H3 subjects?

H2 subjects are full A-Level courses taken over two years (equivalent to UK A-Levels). H1 subjects are half the content of H2, typically taken as 4th subjects. H3 subjects are enrichment courses for top students. Most students take 3 H2 + 1 H1 + GP + PW. H2 subjects carry full points in UAS calculation, while H1 subjects carry half points.

How do Singapore A-Level grades convert to international standards?

Singapore A-Levels are recognized globally and considered equivalent to UK A-Levels. For US applications: A=4.0, B=3.5, C=3.0, D=2.5. The rigorous Singapore system is well-regarded internationally. Most universities understand the high standards and difficulty of achieving top grades in the Singapore-Cambridge system.

What UAS score do I need for different Singapore universities?

NUS/NTU competitive courses (Medicine, Law) typically require 85-90 UAS. Engineering/Business courses usually need 75-85 UAS. Less competitive courses may accept 70+ UAS. SMU and other private universities have different requirements. These are general guidelines—actual cut-offs vary yearly based on competition and may include additional requirements like interviews or portfolios.

Can I retake specific A-Level subjects to improve my UAS?

Yes, you can retake individual subjects as a private candidate. Universities typically consider your best attempt for each subject. However, retaking may delay university admission by a year. Consider the time investment versus potential UAS improvement. Some students retake to meet specific subject requirements or significantly improve their university options.
