  Don't think there's a poly course for criminology. Maybe not even our local NUS law course.
  
  Why don't u study pathology, cheemology or kengmology? It's more interesting.

  Then you better pass your A and E maths with at least a B3 first, otherwise don't say.

  I doubt Singapore has such a course. The nearest is Law from TP.
  
  If you wish to further studies, you have to look outside of Singapore.

  Criminology is usually offered in the Arts faculty in overseas unis. I suppose there are not many restrictions as to which poly course you have to take in order to enter Arts.

  Why only poly? U shd really check with the overseas uni if they accept the TP law course. If not, A'Levels is the best mode en route.

  Actually it's faster doing foundation (1 year) as opposed to poly (3 years). Which country are you considering?

  Don't think you need a specific course in poly just to study criminology.
  
  If you don't pass English, Maths and Science, you need to foundation studies overseas, especially for Australia universities. Whether or not your diploma is distinction.

  I think that will be the case. Criminology is in psychology related field, so you might have to take a foundation course.
  
  And if you want to take a foundation course, you don't need that diploma

  Here's what you can do. Finish your O levels and pass at least English, Maths, Science and 2 more subjects. Then, either serve your NS first or pay a bond and defer for the length of the foundation course and the Bachelors course (for Australian unis).
