  Dear sir/madam.
  
  Im writing in to seek advice and counsel on behalf of my sister.
  
  She is a N level graduate last year and she was supposed to be enrolled into ITE last year using the JAE system.
  
  Sad to say, she had acted on impulse and rejected her initial posting via internet.She had regretted it since.
  
  During the month of January, she called up ITE regarding her case and sought to seek a place in the school however she was placed on the waiting list.After some time, ITE suggested to my sis to apply again via the JAE system used by the O level graduates.
  
  With no options left,she did so but today my mum received a disheartening answer from ITE.She was being rejected yet again.
  
  I cannot think of any way out of this situation right now, As bad as this statement might sounds, ITE is her only route.
  
  Private O levels is out of question as she doesnt have the calibre to take it and financially, it will be a very heavy strain on us.

  Yes this may be one of the ways. Another way will be to go down personally to ITE to do direct intake. If there is still place for students the ITE will accept.

  I remember my brother also rejected ITE's posting before.
  
  soon after, he made another choice.. and got in.. ITE eletronics course.
  
  But my bro went down to the HQ itself.
  
  think some things are better to be settled face to face.
  
  How come private O is straining but not ITE course?
  
  ITE course also cost ard 2k, could be more or less, depending on the course.

  If you want to get into anywhere, you have to fight for it and make your case heard than let their system kick you out.
  
  Your sis must show she has the remorse and determination to join ITE.
  
  If they still kick her out, then she is not fated to go there.

  i supposed she'd taken her "N" and results not too good eh?
  
  is it possible to retake "N" level to see if can proceed on to "O"?
  
  i mean, since ya sis has regretted it, i supposed given a chance, she'll hang on to it well? and perhaps perform better this time round?
  
  mayb u can try accompany her to her sec sch and talk to the teachers....

  Normal tech students usually choose the ITE route. Re-apply again. Wait for next year. In the meantime, go work.
