Xcert...i've heard that the cat C criteria to enter uni is at least 25 yrs old with 4 yrs of working exp.Originally posted by Xcert:I personally feel teaching is not a job....its a calling....
U can end up spending a few years in NIE and then giving it all up to do something else because u dont really like it.
I not from NIE...just stating my views that's all...Originally posted by yuko-ogura:Xcert...i've heard that the cat C criteria to enter uni is at least 25 yrs old with 4 yrs of working exp.
can being a teacher for 4 yrs after I come out of NS( by then i alrdy 25 le..) help me to get into Uni?
Originally posted by Xcert:wad do u mean by related field?
NS experience no count...and working exp must be in related field for Cat C...how are u going to be a teacher for 4 years when U havent got into NIE?pre-school teacher?I dun think U can be a primary school relief teacher for 4 years right?![]()
related field of work.Originally posted by yuko-ogura:wad do u mean by related field?
can I first apply for NIE then go into NS..come out train in NIE and teach for 4 yrs?
wad kind of relevant-field work?Originally posted by Xcert:related field of work.
no.U cant do that using Cat C.
U will have to use Cat A (GCE 'A level) if U want to do that.
btw...if U take MOE's sponsorship...U will be bonded to them for a number of years...if U dont take their sponsorship...NIE fees are not cheap....
what kind of relevant field work?I only can think of one...pre-schoolOriginally posted by yuko-ogura:wad kind of relevant-field work?
so there's no use even working for 4 yrs?
then wad's the cat C for?like no use leh..
tot can use the working experience to help me get in...now hopes dashed too..

seriously if U ask me...cat c is more for those applying to NTU rather than NIE...somemore U need to serve ur NS...ORD...come out and find something related and work for 4 years...I suggest U forget about NIE.
nowadays...even if U want to teach pre-school to have teaching experience...they also need people with diplomas....not like last time suka suka can get people to teach pre-school...
if U die die want to try....just apply under Cat A lor...U have 2 years to try...they have 2 years to reject U...U might get lucky![]()

Anyway from wat i heard as long as u r in a government school and are in deferment period u can take another deferment if u're going to higher educational insitute, just like me i am still under ITE deferment so there should not be any problem to defer for my poly if i apply for it now (1st Year in ITE). Btw CMPB have change regulation liao all ITE male graduates can defer to go straight poly but they must be less then 20 years oldOriginally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:But they are supposed to do so before 18. If at age 18 cannot go NS, the NS package sent to them got option for defer ma.
