but then again if u dun take.. u will go to jc arts fac... where they will still let u take AO level maths which is equivalent... -
A Maths shouldn't be a requirement for any subjects in JC. For the JC current curriculum, there is only 1 Maths subject, though it may be offered in 2 levels, i.e. H1 and H2. (H3 Maths is only offered during the course in JC, so I'm not going to say too much about it.) Most people, if not all, offer Maths in JC, be it H1 or H2 level, because it's a useful subject, although there are many students who did not offer A Maths in the 'O' Levels. So, you shouldn't have to worry too much about being disadvantaged when choosing subjects in JC.
However, I'm going to add that there are quite a few topics in JC Maths syllabus that's going to be the same as or more in depth than A Maths. Taking A Maths will help one grasp those topics more easily. That's pretty much the only advantage a student who offered A Maths at 'O' Levels will get. As long as you are studious, you should be able to cope with the JC Maths.
That said, I hope you don't get too stressed over this test. If you don't pass this test, just treat it as a lesson and prepare well for you tests/exams next time, including the necessary materials that may be required. -
yea... A maths is definitely not needed if u want to take science or arts in jc, only fmaths need
-
take a maths will definately help u in jc one..suppose u fail this time and cannot take amaths...i suggest u do it privately or maybe appeal...A maths is definately curcial in jc..all the best

F Maths is no longer offered in JC, so it's not relevant anymore. So officially, A Maths is now not a prerequisite for any subjects in JC. However, different JC's may have different requirements by themselves.Originally posted by Selenite`:yea...

Arh!!!
No more F math?
Wa lau... why kids nowadays so xin fu one >.<
Anyway i dont find any other subjects easier to get an A than Math
All math qns are in the same format
a little memorization, alot of practice will do the trick
unlike Phy/Chem/Bio/Geo
Practice TYS wont help
and brute force memorization migh not even guarantee u an A -
u'll stuggle in JC maths without A-maths background
go appeal if u dun wan to live in hell 3 years later
-
u did ur best , unlike some whom even go extreme by cheating or help from friends---this low down fuel further by the fact that the tester did not even bother to enforce the rules
...never admire these insecure ppl -

Its only maths*. Depending on what you want to do next time, it could mean absolutely nothing.Originally posted by Kiyoyuki:Argh. Yesterday there was a test which determined student's ability to take A Maths in sec 3. I walked in with confidence until...
No calculator. My teacher [let's not blame him, sigh , me and my carelessness] didn't help me find a calculator so I rushed around looking for one... Couldn't find one. So how? I sat for that test without that stupid calculator. Had to give up quite a few questions because let's face it, if I was a math genius, I wouldn't be sitting for this test. Because of my anxiety of those blank questions, I think I screwed up my test royally. I'm now waiting for those results to appear... I don't want flying colours, just a darn pass so I can take A Maths... Really feel like living on borrowed time
, I don't want to disappoint my parents YET again when it comes to mathematics.
However, if I do fail this time and I cannot take A Maths next year, will I be handicapped when I do go Poly or JC? I'm trying to prepare for the worst in case I really do fail and by not taking A Maths, I'm like stabbing myself in the foot or sth. Maybe by preparing [in chinese, 'xing li jun bei'], I will not do anything stupid if it looks bleak.
Haha. People scolded me, saying, 'it's only a test, why got suicidal thoughts?'
I mean, look. Quite a percentage of people do take A Maths throughout many, many schools.
But you know parents and 'face'.
;_;
*not applicable is you want to be an engineer. -
you better fight for your own future.. my principal didnt allow me to take also.Originally posted by Y_Shun:but hor, the problem is my A Math teacher => my form teacher.

my maths grade at sec 2 was 23/100.
i took it myself.. and when my teacher discover it, she brought me to the principal and im allowed to take it..
worse to worst, just take it as a private candidate..
although it's not a requirement.. you are disadvantaged like 100% in jc.
i can say, most of my frds who left jc, or got retained.. is becoz of the A maths thing.
and for good colleges, you will need to appeal to go science stream, if you did not offer A maths.
jsut go for it.. i got b3 on my own. I didnt ace it, but im proud of myself already. -

remember A maths is additional mathematics but nonetheless, taking A maths also help you to build very good foundation and preparing you if you intend to go to JC and pursue A levels' subjects including C maths and F maths after your O Levels
it is E maths that is very important when it comes to gaining entry into poly or jc
but lets say only if the competition during the year of your O levels is very stiff, then maybe gaining into the jc or poly may be depend on the additional subjects you take also. Just like taking S Papers as the competition is very stiff when gaining entry into one of the course in University. But additional subjects issues in O levels is only maybe. The main issue still depends on your points you get for your O levels. For more clear and credible informations and answers, you may contact the MOE and ask
don't worry, I got many friends who don't do A maths or pure science in upper sec, and they've gained entry into the JCs or polys and some are studying in the university or working in reputated companies now -
