Did badly for As

yeah, try studying abroad. =DOriginally posted by charlize:If you can afford it, go overseas.
You can join a small community college first if you think your grades don't qualify for those bigger full fledged universities.
However, the good thing is you can do your first year at the community college and then transfer your credits over from your second year onwards at that full fledged university.
Note that you still have to perform for your first year since the transfer depends on your first year grades.
You can treat it like your second opportunity in getting a degree.

fark off lar...19 cannot retake ar?Originally posted by Agenda:Fu.ck u.. come out already 19.. 19 still retake? NNB!!! -
since this is the case...wait until he gets posted to unit and see if he can retake as private candidate during his 2 years.not easy though...especially if he gets posted into combat unitsOriginally posted by sinicker:nightsky87 is a male currently in the midst of his BMT already. -
No I dont mean JPSAF scheme...Originally posted by redarmyland:wat do u mean by those O level students who have grade problems go NS first? go NS dun go ITE or POLY? or u mean go sign up for JOINT-poly-SAF diploma scheme?
I meant for those who cant get into poly course but dun want to go ITE...poly dropouts included. -
GP A1 can take English Language and Linguistics.
Literature too, but your A level subjects may be a problem. -
if u r confident in doing better.. maybe u can try to retake as a pte candidate, but i can say its quite hard to study while serving NS... i know of a fren who did that.. and his retake results wasn't any better than his previous one... after NS he just packed his bags and left for an overseas college , start all over again from pre college (= to sg's junior college) courses...hoping to get a place in a uni over there....
another alternative , u can try taking up a recognised degree course of your choice in sg, at some pte institutions like SIM or MDIS... they dont have requirements which are as strigent as local unis.. but being able to get in, doesn't guarantee u a cert in 3 years time... u still need to study real hard to get good grads or even to graduate... -
lousy results?
no problem! SIM is there to help you. -
hinting SIM is dumping ground ahOriginally posted by digicharat:lousy results?
no problem! SIM is there to help you. -
DDEF.......hmm...i hear dat NUS and NTU wont even look at such grade......if u get CCC den dey already buay song u liao n hope u will scram to some other place........
nvr mind, u can try overseas........
-
Overseas seems to be the best choice for you now.
-
ATTITUDE = 100%
dun retake if u dun have the determination to study. -
perhaps u'll like to try a non-science course?
management?
business?
social sciences?
communication studies?
actualli think w/o going abroad there're still options ard... thou i not too sure abt the entry requirement of these courses.... -
hey bro i got my results too..sigh i dunno wad to do now.ur GP is reallie good i guess.
A1... -

Hey, at least you got an A1 for GP! That's very good in my eyes... I am also struggling with my subjects now and I am taking one less subject than you... Don't know if I can do well in this year's A's...
By the way, you can try applying for Law at NUS. The minimum criteria is B3 for GP. But with your A1, I am very sure you can enter the Law faculty. That is, if you are interested in Law of course.
By the way, can give me tips on how to do well for GP and score an A1 like you? Thanks! -
Ha bro sad to hear this..But bad grades does not mean the end of the journey...
I guess what ever we can say cant help u much...There are the SIMs, the POLYs and u can even resit...Too many options.. But whats good for u...i guess u know it...What im trying to say is ultimately u make the choice that is going to change ur life...
Do not take up something just because u have not choice...etc want to go in a uni and cant get into ntu/nus..therefore sim...
U must know what u like and what interests u...Know what u want..I feel that if because of any unforseen reasons, u cant do well this year..u might try again but like what the rest say..if u know it not gonna make a diff..dun waste ur time..Think it over well and hopefully u will get the answer... Good luck -
yeah i guess u really have to know what you want.
u have been thru JC and u know how tough it is like..i'm sure u can imagine how issit like to do private A's. need lotsa discipline.
well u can jus apply for watever u can for now and try ur luck...meanwhile see and think about what u intend to do while u are in NS for e next 2yrs or less...
decisions decisions decisions.. -
Don't even think of it...yours are science subjects. No way you can do better unless you enroll in a good private school and work like crazy..Originally posted by hisoka:take while in army lor. it will be hard but no choice if dun want to waste time. use that as your motivation. -
Aiya.. dun try hwo whould u know it wont work. I've a fren who wasnt happy with juz 1 A. He retook while still in army.. got 3 As as a private candidate. No harm trying right? Juz have to work for it.Originally posted by sinicker:eh bro, take as private candidate also no use. only 42.2% managed at least one A lvl pass leh.
