1. Introduction

Welcome !

Hi, my name is Ronny Goh. I am from Medan, Indonesia. Following high school, I worked as a freelance computer programmer for two years. After successfully saving enough money, I pursued BSc. (Hons) Mathematics and Economics degree with University of London (International Programme) at the Singapore Institute of Management (SIM). Upon the completion of my undergraduate studies, I was awarded an LSE External Study Scholarship to study MSc. in Applicable Mathematics at the London School of Economics and Political Science (2009-2010).

Studying at the LSE is an enlightening experience. I have met many interesting, inspiring and amazing people from around the world and learned a lot from them. This is the reason why I write this blog - to share with you what I had learned and what I would do if I could turn back time to the year 2006 when I started my undergraduate studies. 

The intended audiences for this blog are the  undergraduates who enrolled in a degree with University of London International Programme (Lead College:  LSE).

My hope is that after you visit this blog:
  • You will have a clear direction of what to do during and after your undergraduate studies.
  • You will be inspired by those who have inspired me and (hopefully) by my own story. 
  • You will spread the word !

Let me first give you a warning before you proceed to the next section. This is going to be (hopefully) a powerful "inception" (don't worry if you haven't watched the movie, you only miss the joke) , you will soon experience a paradigm shift. Tighten your seat belt, let the brainwashing begins!

  1. Hey Ronny,
    Enjoyed your blog tremendously.it has been a great help as well as inspiration.
    Is it really true that you only need to score 70percent in 5 units to achieve a first class honours?i was under the impression that we had to score 70 percent in all 12 units to get a first class honours
