I just read about IB in today’s Sunday Times. I think I much prefer going the A level route.

Hi, I'm interested to read the article, can someone please cut and paste if possible, thanks! -
Not able to find a online version of the article. The article was highlighting students who did not do well in PSLE (with scores hovering around 200) and yet have done well in IB. It sends the message that even if you did not do well in PSLE, it isn’t the end.
But note that they interviewed students from the international schools, ACS Int’l, HCI Intl’. These schools charge a hefty school fees and not all can afford. There is no MOE bursary or scholarships for students in these schools. -

It is indeed a personal preference. I feel the A levels favors the academically strong student. -

Anyone can qualify this.phtthp:
It's not this article.
If you do A-level , you can take ARTs course & Skip Sciences by taking contrasting subject as MAths(H1 ).
If you take IB , you have to take one subject each from Science & MAths. There is no relief like H1 for these subjects.
Really need your help -

zbear,
School fees at IP schools are not exactly cheap too.

But JCs are cheap, rite? I am looking at JCs. -
