All JB taxis will/must stop at the Queen Street taxi stand in Singapore. Nearest MRT station I know of would be Bugis (not sure if a new circle line station would be nearer) - around 5 mins walk away.

Yes. No problem.

Some corrections to your corrections that may help others. May be interesting reading too.

The "6-month validity" rule is not universal. Some countries are 4-months (e.g.Cambodia), some countries require that your passport is valid for 30-days beyond your stay (S. Africa), some just require that your passport be valid for duration of stay (e.g. France), or duration of stay plus proof of onward travel (Thailand). The takeaway is that while there is no blanket 6-month rule, it is the most common, and therefore should be used simply as a convenient reminder in the absence of specifically seeking advice from embassy.

One place you *can* get this info from is from the airlines - they have an IATA database they can check. The airlines have a vested interest because should you be turned back, they have the duty of care to ferry you home. That's why airlines check at check-in.

Singapore does require 6-months - if one has got in before, this was entirely discretionary.

Finally, all this is determined by local laws with possible modification through bilateral treaties (google the "6-month club" for one example). This is not "international law". International law is something else entirely.

I'll tell you the simplest way.
1) You find your own way to Larkin Bus Terminal from Skudai (there must be a bus but this is your own backyard so you should know).
2) At Larkin, take the Express Bus that stops at Queen Street. It will be beside the SBS (that's the Singapore bus company) bus 170. Make sure you buy a ticket on the express bus.
3) Express bus will take you to Jb checkpoint - go through Johor immi and get back on board the express bus. You repeat this at the Singapore immi checkpoint.
4) Once it gets to Queens Street, ask for directions to Bugis MRT station - it is nearby - around 5 min. walk/less than 300m.
5) On MRT, take the MRT towards Pasir Ris.
6) ITE is between the Tanah Merah station and Simei station You will pass it and you can see the campus from the train itself - can't miss it - big school campus with white buildings, running track, even a suspended rope obstacle course. Get off at Simei, and backtrack a bit, maybe a longish walk ~ 800m.
