met up with the 2 guys who have choosen NTU for exchange next semester..
The guy who went last sem left this for them..
1) Locals are somewhat reserved, it can be difficult to meet them. They are very polite though.
2) Schedules are kind of confusing, try to get it sorted out early. Go to the Student Services Center and talk to them in person. Then go again 4 days later because they may have forgotten about your request.
3) Bring clothes for really warm, really humid weather
4) Although everyone speaks English, they speak "Singlish" which is different and there still exist a slight language barrier
5) Arrival is easy, get someone to meet you at the airport or take a taxi and hopefully find the International Student Center.

wa! Oh man...I supposed we can speak acceptable English but it's about the accent. And, we speak fairly fast at times. That coupled with the accent = language barrier. But don't worry. We're a fun bunch! Tell them that Van!
