woot~
first time see a all A1 cert
-
Unlike 10 A1 scorers of previous years, this girl's 10 A1s do not mean anything much.
Simply because the top 1000+ students have been taken out of the competition, thanks to the thru-train programme. And because of this, the moderation of results is such that people who would otherwise score an A2 in previous years will now score an A1.
The true test of academic ability will come at the A-Levels in 2 years time, when the cream of the cohort take the exams together with everyone else. -
No, the true test of academic ability comes at university level.Originally posted by cornyfish2000:Unlike 10 A1 scorers of previous years, this girl's 10 A1s do not mean anything much.

Unfortunately that's not the case... cos the top students are in the overseas universities like cambridge and MIT...Originally posted by CoolMyth:No, the true test of academic ability comes at university level.
The A Levels is the only common national exam that all students sit for, and we can thus compare. -

Nobody studies history anymore? All take Combined Humanities these days?
History was among my favourite subjects in high school.

True academic ability, not exam results.Originally posted by cornyfish2000:Unfortunately that's not the case... cos the top students are in the overseas universities like cambridge and MIT...

Of course exam results in A levels is the highest common level lah. But not true academic ability. A levels just prove that they can memorise facts and definitions, not true understanding.

Assuming you're not going uni after diploma, just compare the pay packets.
Bottom line, go with your gut instincts. Don't fall for propaganda. -
