-NUS ranking rises to 21, 3rd Asian university in top 50

Competition in ranking may result in stress and cheating, but it can also serve as a benchmark to enable one to know where one stands compared to others. This will provide incentive for one do better. Eg, competing to be the safest country will obviously benefit the society, so it's not just for the glory alone.
Competing NOT to be at the top of most expensive country will also likewise benefit the people, as a top ranking will serve as a warning bell for the government to do something about it in order to avert the bad reputation as well as the repercussions that come with being at the top of such a negative ranking.


Sample Qns:
1. Is competition always unhealthy?
2. To what extent is it possible to 'make the punishment fit the crime'? (Cam. 2013)
