      Wonder is NAFA very important when applying JC Or Poly? Do the schools look at your NAFA record? My dd's friend who is in sec 4 this year and didn't take NAFA this year due to medical problem.Her PE teacher keeps pestering her to take ,he said will affect the application of JC or Poly if she didn't take it :?


      Anyone has any clue?

        Application to JC and Poly is via O level results. I don't think NAPFA is a pre-requisite for entry to JC and Poly.

          JC1 Parents - are you all planning any June holiday vacation for your kids? Or they are too busy to go away?

          One more week left before JC reopens... some JC conducted exams while most has mid-year as it opens next week. My DD passed all subject & we went for PTM... Form teacher takes GP & result was B , so he just asked my DD to understand from teachers what went wrong with subject with lower grades
          What are the main challanges getting thro' AABB ... I dun think it is happening... That means have to plan for overseas Degree 😓

            Some kids need time to work up their grades - I know I did! The grades your daughter got this time may not reflect her eventual grades.

              How did the rest of the cohort do? If the papers were set more difficult and most students don't do well, then there's no need to be too concerned.

                My DD’s CA will start when school opens. She kept reminding me not to expect good grades. If can pass, its considered very good.


                I faint.

                  Looking at my daughter's daily assignments, I'm not sure she will get any passes at all. I'm using this as a test case so that she can see how badly she can do if she doesn't work harder and smarter.

                    Dd has been studying harder than she did for o levels. :faint:

                    To prevent her from going :siao: we went for short break. She keeps saying there's so much content that she just can't finish studying everything for the coming CTs.

                        Is it so scary in jc 1? Cant imagine not able to finish studying even with the june holudays. Is it because they have many activities in the holidays?
