Game theory is hard to pin down. It originates from a fascinating line of economic thought, but feels more like a branch with its own roots. The H3 game theory module stands under the shadow of economics, but truthfully, the concepts of the subject stretch way further. The umbrella of game theory ponders over all of academia, spanning political science to evolutionary biology.

After looking through our past articles on some of the H3s available, you may feel as if none of those courses pique your interest sufficiently enough to justify your taking them. If so, one (or two) of the H3s listed below may just be right for you. In this article, we complete our coverage of the various H3 subjects by featuring several J2s’ experiences of the H3s offered by local universities. You may also wish to check out our guides to H3 History, some of the Science H3s and a few of the MOE H3s, as well as our article on whether you should take a H3 at all.

Having received their promotional examination results just yesterday, some J1s are undoubtedly in the process of making critical decisions on whether or not to apply to take a H3 (or two) next year. To better inform your decision, Raffles Press has interviewed a number of J2 students on their experiences in their various H3s over the course of 2014, as well as any advice they would like to offer prospective H3 students. In this article, we introduce the various internal H3 courses offered by MOE for your consideration. Do also read our guides to H3 History and some of the Science H3s, as well as our article on whether you should take a H3 at all.

Some may say, “I want to take a H3 because it’s interesting!” but there’s much more to consider than that. We’ve approached a number of Year Sixes and ex-Rafflesians to help you get a better picture as to whether you should consider taking a H3 in the Sciences (or not).

ETA: This post has been amended on 15 October 2014 to reflect that the SMU H3 Game Theory module is no longer available, while the MOE Pharma Chem module is most popular. Read our previous feature on H3 History here.
With the impending release of the Y5 Promotional Examination results, many of us will now plunge into the craze of applying for H3s. (The rest of us will just be contented to stay out of the rush.)
So we’ve heard what is being offered and now we wonder: ‘Should I take an internal or external H3?’ ‘What’s in it for me?’ ‘Should I even bother applying?’ Chia Jia Jin (12S06F) has very kindly taken time off his Mega Mugging Madness to give Press the lowdown on these H3s.
