Anything that interests me: Reading Up Before University

I was asked quite important questions, so here's a quick answer to them.


On economics at NUS, I am most familiar. For Chem Engin, I am not so sure. However I can tell you for sure that if you are a good student - like me - you would have long prepared for university already. I read up on the history of economics before even coming to the LSE, for instance, and you can see the link on the right hand sidebar under Backhouse's Penguin History.

The answer is yes, prepare for school. That separates good students from the average joes. Average people do what they are told only - good students go ahead and learn more, or read around the subject.

For NUS economics, I recommend - but this is only my opinion -


I also recommend

http://jc-economics-essays.blogspot.com/ (hahahaha an instance of "asymmetric information", of course I'd recommend it, since I created it :p :p)

However, those are quite varied. Mine is easier as it's A level revision (which is basic) and WWK is a professor. So one last site I'd recommend (other than my own of course):

Mankiv's site is really good... but for the generalist: http://gregmankiw.blogspot.com/

So in a nutshell to those who wrote on my tagboard recently,

yes, better start. Go look at the NUS syllabus. Go read around the subject. Revise your A level stuff.

All the best!

Tongue in cheek : Now, may I retire in peace? Hahahaha I still get the same volume of fanmail even though I've retired from blogging!! But I am flattered. Thanks. I hope I help. But read my blogs. They've got everything.
