3. Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine (NUS), Singapore

   If your portfolio is above par then you will be subjected to 2 further assessments – the FSA (Focused Skills Assessment) and the SJT (Situational judgment).

Students from its school have led from the front in scientific breakthroughs. As a testament to its brilliance, it receives an astoundingly large number of applications per year.
   Less than 7% of all applications received are shortlisted for being interviewed for selection. The selected 2400 candidates are then thoroughly taught and groomed by its 287 professors. These candidates pay an annual fee of USD5000 which is almost nothing when compared to the bright future that awaits them.
