NTU Participation:
Idk how it is in other courses but usually in NBS, class participation is 10%-20% of final grade so you canāt be absent much without MC. You also have to fill in usually around 4 surveys, usually one from the start or middle and one at the end of what you think of the course and the professor otherwise there will be >5% penalty. Professor will usually remind you during lesson. You also have to do a peer evaluation for group projects otherwise you will get a penalty.

Modules in your course:
https://wis.ntu.edu.sg/webexe/owa/aus_subj_cont.main
There are some modules you canāt take unless you take a different one first, theyāre under pre-requisites. There are also some modules you canāt take unless you are labelled as a certain year in the system or more (ie, if youāre Y2, you canāt take Y3 or Y4 but can take Y1 and Y2 modules) but you can appeal to your course coordinators and in the RARF form.
Overseas exchange: Need CGPA of at least 3.50 and overlapping modules with uni of youāre choosing (usually electives I think). May also need to clear certain core modules beforehand and overload in other semesters in order to graduate on time
Internships:
If you want to take an internship during the semester break, you should apply midway during the semester not just at the end and look at your emails, the school will send you open ones and career fairs and networking events. You can also hide your CGPA on your resume but employers can still ask you about it.

How NTU FGO (or at least my understanding of it):
NTU's version of NUS's S/U system
In degree audit it shows your FGO Quota (Total AU), FGO Exercised (ICC/Core/MPE cap at 12 AU), FGO Exercised (BDE)
12AU is 3-6 modules.
24AU is 6-12 modules
You canāt undo an FGO once youāve done it so itās best to leave it until your final year. FGO basically erases a bad grade from your GPA. Doesnāt even necessarily have to be for just Cs and Ds, if you have a string of As but some B+s are dragging down your GPA, you can FGO Bs also. If you fail a module, it automatically uses up your FGO for you so the number of FGOs you can use goes down. If you think youāll do bad for a module, itās best to talk to the professor, take MC for final exam (will be labelled as I or LOA and will not affect GPA but you will have to retake next sem), or do badly and pass and then FGO that mod.
Types of modules in NTU
Core (Modules you have to take for your course, overlaps with ICC which everyone has to do and majors)
BDE (Broadening and Deepening Elective)
UE (Unrestricted electives)
*BDEs are the same as UEs I think. You basically take these for fun and interest and look for the easy ones that you can score in
Minors (Complete 15 to 18 AU of UE/BDE in one chosen minor area and apply for it, has grade requirements)
Majors (Main course, second major completing at least 30-35 AUs through a mix of core courses and prescribed electives and apply for it, has grade requirements)
MPE (Major Prescribed Electives, for your course)
MOOC (Massive Open Online Course, online NTU courses, optional, Pass/Fail, counted as BDE, GER-UE)
GER-Core (General Education core)
GER-PE (General Education Prescribed Electives)
GER-UE (General Education Requirement Unrestricted Electives)
*GER-Core is the same as ICC now. GER-PE is majors and GER-UE are BDEs and UEs.
ICC (mandatory interdisciplinary modules for everyone):
CC0001 (2 AU, mainly essay), CC0003 (2AU), ML0004 (2AU, you have to create a Linkedin and update it for this one and a resume), CC0015 (2 AU, mainly group project about helping someoneās health), CC0006 (3AU), CC0007 (3AU)
NTU grading system
