EmathA1

Geography A1

Combined humans A2

My l1r5 is 9 but with deduction, it is now 7.  So, I can enter a JC with 7 points. I wanna join a science stream but which JC is better? I heard MJC is a mugger school and retain like free. Not so sure abt nanyang as I missed their open house. Reali unsure. Can anyone experience help me out here! So stress!!!

NYJC!! i have a really good impression of NYJC. talked to the principal and he is really down to earth and communicates witht he students. in fact a lot of students like him as well! for example, on the first day of school last year, he stood outside the school to give out newspapers and even went to give out apples personally for night study! :D culture there is really good, people are generally friendly too (: too bad i didn't manage to meet the cop if not i will definately go there! do factor in the travel time as well for the 2 schools (:

@lanadelray

BTW i live in Tampines but there's a circle line and JC starts at 8+ so time is not really a problem. Thanks for the advice but how are the facilities at nanyang? Any bad stuff there?

lols. dun be too fixated on Jcs. why not consider poly

Don't worry. The facilities at NY are working well..they just had a new field done last year and this year, they r preparing for a new running track. Sounds good?

i'm actually debating between TP's apparel design and merchandising course and MI. Haven't gather enough info on MI since its quite an unconventional route. I feel that prospects after that is more important. I want to go to a local university definately, so i'm having quite a hard time choosing between that two route.

local uni no have fashion design

the roof wun fall on u.

I want to take Computer engineering or IT course in poly.
Only problem is i not sure which to take.
Computer engineering focus both on hard and software while IT only software.

Both appeal to me, hence can anybody tell me which is better (In your own opinion), be it job prospect or difficulty etc.

And is NP or SP better for such courses?

Much appreciated!

SP

facilites are good and looks new. except for the running track.... so far i can't think of any bad stuff. overall NY is a good sch (:

i wanna ask, is NYJC or SAJC or AJC better? 

better in terms of?

Hi all. Is MJC or NYJC a better school? In terms of A level results.

NYJC > MJC

Thanks, may i ask if you know the avg A level results of NYJC? The one over 90.

I was told MJC's was 79. That's a very good score right? Considering top 5 JCs hit above 80.

Which poly is better for Life sciences. NP or SP? I heard that the NP graduates were the first to be admitted into NUS Med school and also NP has the 1st poly graduate to win A-star scholarship.

Hey guys im really stuck as to whether i should study biology...

I don't take biology in sec sch and only take pure chem and pure physics, but the problem is I don't like physics and i wish to pursue a career in life science or pharmacy. I just got my O level results and my L1R5 is 10. Chem - A1 and Physics - A2

I went to MJC open house yesterday and they said they don't allow students who never took bio in O lvl to take H2 bio. I'm pretty sad because I wanna take H2 bio...

People have said O lvl bio is not a pre-requisite to take H2 bio but i wanna know which JCs allow that? Or do i have to appeal?

Don't think anyone is in a same situation as me, but if you know JCs that allow this, please reply thank you.

Or else i will either study H1 physics or take biomedical in sp/np. 

Hey AlwaysHungry,

I'm also thinking about that haha...but it seems to me that sp's biomedical syllabus is more rigorous than np's, as in maybe you need to mug more.

Both equally good la i think

Yup, i just saw all the modules in biomedical is SP and compared it to NP. They certainly had alot of modules and it seemed complicated too.I will probably will have to do alot of mugging to maintain my GPA. 

And guys, my L1R4 is 7. What are my chances of entering biomedical in SP( 8points) and NP(9 points). Thank You.

Wanna enter Uni? Check your GPA requirement below

sorry that link is kind of outdated. 

try this: http://nus.edu.sg/oam/gradeprofile/sprogramme-igp.html

Dont get perfect GPA or 3.9+ cannot enter anything lol...but ur results arent that bad...better than mine

Hi! I used to be a single pointer for my O level results. I've actually taken up business informatics (IT related) course in NYP. I find that it is great and I made it to NUS with some exemptions! You all can consider it if you are interested in IT. :-)

AJC is full of NJC rejects

Hi Guys , I scored a raw score of 8 , English , A Math , CH , Geo A1 and Chem, Phy, E Math and MT A2 .CCa can - 2pts

I want to take 4H2 combi of Maths , Geog , Chem and Econs. I don't think its the norm and I'm more inclined towards the humans subjects. Choosing between Anderson ( Gives it as a combi ) and ACJC ( heard their combi veri flexible) .

I heard distance is also pivotal and I live in TPY North near Braddell MRT. Would AC be too far?

Which one would you guys say is a better choice?

What is the environment in IJC? Considering to go there over PJC

Yeah! Can someone enlighten us whether pjc or ijc teachers are better? H2 maths chem physics teachers.
