To go poly or Jc?? Need help
-
Ya... but they are further classified into foreign, JC and poly students application...Originally posted by mystee:there must be a limited no of entries to every courses rite?
I think, not sure. -
poly. 12 pt in jc is gonna suffer, unless u are willing to put in many hours of hard work
-
So i guess what you mean is that if i study poly, i am only competing with other poly students in a certain course's admission?Originally posted by sbst275:It's all diff category for admission
Not as if it's common admission exercise -
There's 1 thing I got to mentionOriginally posted by davidche:So i guess what you mean is that if i study poly, i am only competing with other poly students in a certain course's admission?
The poly dip cert you hold also affects the courses you can take... Like Biz, you can't pursue an Eng degree -
SP gpa calculation
A & distinction - 4
B+ - 3.5
B - 3
C+ - 2.5
C - 2
D + - 1.5
D - 1
D- ,sub pass, dunno what pass other pass -0.5
Each module has a credit unit
GPA =
[(Module credit unit * grade point ) + other credit unit* grade point]/total credit unit
highest you can ever get = 4...and it is accumulative from year 1 to year 3...means u year 1 not good den hard to catch up liao...

Now can le... if you get good results.Originally posted by sbst275:There's 1 thing I got to mention

Good not just merit only... is a certain % of your cohort..
But doesn't apply to all courses... poly grads still can't take a medical degree. -
opt for poly n most important choose a course which is relevant in psychology, then ur chance will be guarantee much higher than those who study in jc as this is ur speciality.Originally posted by davidche:
I am definitely going to university for further studies, possibly psychology. I gauge my o-level results as about 12pts, after cca dedcution. I am not in a Uniform group or sports, im in a performing arts.
So based on my description, would you recommend me to go JC or Poly.
Thanks a lot for your opinions!!
*Only constructive replys pls and i need no advise on things like perhaps i shldnt go uni..etc..
but keep in mind:
u must be sure u r top 5% poly students in order to advance. -
actually can, i've heard of a few crossovers. just that they start at year 1. no credit exemptions.Originally posted by sbst275:There's 1 thing I got to mention

Overseas uni can... but SG uni no. Unless your grades are good.Originally posted by darkensun:Eh??? I think can... I have senior who went to business in Uni(oversea though) who is in engineering...but his GPA very high -
actually i m not too sure myself too.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Ya... but they are further classified into foreign, JC and poly students application...
I think, not sure.
but there was a year, whereby a JC student has an average grade of C. He cant get into the course he wanted but he was given an entry to EEE.
& a poly student who is a top 10% was rejected from EEE.
this was what i heard before. -

Not too sure la.. Maybe still got restriction cos some courses you might need background info -
You mean that ger interviewed by TNP...Originally posted by stellazio:i thought there was 1 and only student who managed to study medicine from poly?
Your senior I think -
Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Overseas uni can... but SG uni no. Unless your grades are good. he can...only thing is he want to live abroad...

What's his diploma in the first place? Unless your grades are really great, one can't just switch courses, whether or not you are in top 10%.Originally posted by mystee:actually i m not too sure myself too.

they say increase to 15, but accountancy is ntu still 10%. means 60 students +- out of 600.Originally posted by sbst275:I know... Now I hear need not be top 10% to apply to uni

divide by 5 polys = 12 students from each poly nia. and any business courses can apply with advantage le, not only specifically from accountancy course. -
yar, from ngee ann life science course. well she's the only 1, and i think it will stay this way.Originally posted by sbst275:You mean that ger interviewed by TNP...
Your senior I think -
TNP... ok, I admit I don't know. I don't read TNP.Originally posted by sbst275:You mean that ger interviewed by TNP...

I think is overall la for these coursesOriginally posted by stellazio:they say increase to 15, but accountancy is ntu still 10%. means 60 students +- out of 600.

But say Mechanical Eng, from poly need to have Mechanical Eng dip or something like that... -
cuz only tp got law course ma.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Got meh? Law I know. From TP. -
yes. if u choose direct entries to second year to dat particular course.Originally posted by davidche:So i guess what you mean is that if i study poly, i am only competing with other poly students in a certain course's admission?
if u r going in to 1st year, u will compete wif the jc batch too. but if u have a diploma which is closely relevant to the course u choose, most likely u have a greater advantage. -
he has a diploma in EE, with average grade of A with some AD too. is definately related.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:What's his diploma in the first place? Unless your grades are really great, one can't just switch courses, whether or not you are in top 10%. -
She's luckyOriginally posted by stellazio:yar, from ngee ann life science course. well she's the only 1, and i think it will stay this way.
