ooptimizer:

6 subjects all A1 = 6 points.

Less 2 points HCL = 4 points.
Less 2 ponts CCA A1 = 2 points.
Less 2 points affiliation = 0 points.

What does affiliation mean?

Some sec schools have affiliations with JCs, so they get bonus points of 2 deducted from their L1R5. For eg., Catholic sec schools have bonus points to CJC, and MGS and ACS have affiliation points to ACJC. But note, they do not have affiliation points to ACSI.

Also note that the max bonus points you can deduct is 4 bonus points. So lowest point you can score is 2, not 0. Although there is one special circumstance where you can deduct to 0 but I can't remember the details of.

Thanks for the clarification.

By the way, MGS IP is direct route to ACSI, right?

For the MGS O level route, will go ACJC ?

MGS IP is thru to ACSI.
MGS O level, they can go to any JC they choose, depending on their O level results. Many would choose to go to ACSI or ACJC, although some might choose HCI or RI.

Rough ranking (not in order and exclude sec school which went IP)


Top rank: HCI, RJC, VJC, NJC, TJC

Middle rank: AJC, SAJC, ACJC, NYJC

Bottom rank: The rest.

1st RJC
2nd HCI

Any idea which JC is 3rd??

[phtthp]

3rd JC : Victoria Junior College

[Catz2222]

phtthp:

3rd JC : Victoria Junior College

So 4th NJC
5th TJC
???


Thanks Loads for the reply

Don’t think 5th is Temasek Junior College


Dunman High is very strong

4th (as of today) : can be Dunman High or National Junior College

Nanyang Junior College :
although not yet within Top 5, but is catching up, fast


Eunoia JC, still relatively new today, compared to other many-years of established JCs.
But give her another 5 to 10 years from now : possible to be ranked within Top 5, one day in future.
Eunoia has this potential

However, ranking of JCs is not important. Don’t be so up-tight about ranking of JC

What’s important is :
your child must do well at "A" level, particularly if he / she is from an IP Secondary school.

Eg
One may be from a Top JC.
But what’s the point, if amongst the GCE "A" level cohort inside the Top JC , one end up performing badly (for whatever reasons that cause it), ending up with some C and D, at A level ?

Agreed. If the child has the right aptitude and attitude, they will perform well. I have friends who are not from the top 5 JCs but did well enough to qualify for NTU accountancy course.
