Personal congratulations by a prof for nus acceptance

Did everyone get a personal text to congratulate you for the acceptance to engineering? I just received them from a senior lecturer of the course I was accepted to and was informed that I will receive my award letter by email soon. Just curious if everyone had one or this basically just confirmed my suspicions from my previous post haha

Genuinely losing my mind over CHS rejection

Just cannot comprehend how I could be rejected from CHS when I did everything right. My RP was comfortably above cut off, my portfolio is crazy crazy good. Ranked CHS first and got fcbp, interview went well. I applied undeclared but interviewed under life sciences. I’m just wondering if faculty preference could have influenced admissions decisions and override candidate choice rankings. Because during my engineering interview the two professors were very impressed by my profile and the interview turned into 30minutes of active persuasion to join them + directly telling me I would get a bursary of X amount. My portfolio is very engineering research dense with papers published in journals as first author and very interdisciplinary. With over 500 volunteer hours and community initiatives that and wide range impact. 😭 I’m Singaporean too.
Got offered engineering with minor in management of technology (this was second choice in my special programs rankings)
The CHS interview went really well too with the professor even suggesting I join one of the interviewers for her area of research after matriculation.
Haiz not a GP problem also, I got GP A 😭

The engineering profs were throwing shade at the other faculties too 😭 when they saw my first choice being chs.

NUS application results out

Ok hi guys this is really strange. I got offered engineering with a minor in management of technology, which was my second choice for the DDP rankings. But my first choice was CHS humanities and sciences (undeclared) for the single degree programs entry. And I just went thru the ABA for FOS. Does that mean I got rejected by chs?? My third choice for single degree programs was civil engineering... So like what's going on?? Edit: my portal was just updated like two seconds ago

I had my ABA interview this Wednesday idk when should I expect the offer to come cause I was probably in the last batch for interviews. Applied undecided but selected life sci for the FOS interview. Around 64.5rp with a portfolio that's super good (like good enough for Harvard level, just that I fumbled my As)

A for GP if that matters
