      sgrvstudent:
      Hi, not sure what the school's plans are for current Y2 batch, but the situation for Y2 2012/Y3 2013 batch is a Subject Updating Exercise.

      (They are going to conduct a Subject Combination Exercise for Y4 2014 at the end of the year.)

      Subject Updating Exercise for Y3 2013:
      1. Choose BSP/no BSP (Bicultural Studies Program)
      2. Chemistry + \"Biology OR Physics\" (for double science)
      3. Triple Science? If yes, Physics + Chemistry+ Biology
      4. Both Geography and History are to be studied in Y3.
      5. No Singapore and Comparative Studies - previous cohorts used to have SCS in BOTH Y3 and Y4.

      Not sure if there will be changes for the Y3 2014 exercise.

      Hope this helps.
      Thank you for sharing.

        The system has changed. Now yr 2 students are able to choose whether they want triple humanities/triple science provided they have GPA higher than 3.2. Also, they will be able to choose one humanities (if they don’t take triple humanities) from this list: Geography, History, EL lit, CL lit and Bi Cul.

          Hi Year 2 parents,
          Appreciate if you could share your child's subject combination, please.

          Based on Just2Random's post, one can choose either triple humanities or triple science, if GPA is higher than 3.2?
          If one takes triple science, one has to choose at least a humanity subject?
          Earlier post from another forumer mentioned there is no S'pore & Comparative Studies?
          I am just confused.
          My concern is this subject combination would affect their choice of subjects at A level.

          Thanks.

              Not sure if these students choose olevel, will it suffer same fate? Anyway in ip , consistent performance is still needed to promote next level; by retaining , it affects morale …
