      [quote=\"pirated\"]the Right JC = RJC :rotflmao:


      Right or not, only alumni from there would know. A lot of people only imagine it to be the Right JC for their DC. ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿฆ†

      As an alumni from RJC, I have to say it is a quite competitive school... Imagine a school where people would literally cry if their A level results were 3A and 1B.

      Students who are used to being at the top of the cohort would need to adjust their mindset a bit. At RJC it is no longer about competing with others, just do your personal best it will be good enough. Even a student \"below average\" in RJC, e.g. maybe at the 30th-40th percentile, is highly likely to get 4As in the A levels.

      Just to encourage those who may be struggling in RJC, it is a place with a lot of \"hard truths\" even for those who are lucky enough to get in.[/quote]The hard truth is that most of them compete on global basis to enter Oxbridge or Ivy League uni

        The ranking is something like that:

        6-4=2 can go anywhere.
        6-3 =3
        7-4=3
        6-2=4
        7-3=4
        So it depends how many students in each category, which varies each year.

            If 2 points then you have a very, very good chance. If 3 points then it depends.

            A score of 6-3 is better than a score of 7-4 (source is from moe website).
            can explain why 6-3 better than 7-4, because both also end up 3 points ? thanks :?

                  \"In situations where there are two or more applicants with the same net aggregate score vying for the last place in a course, they will be posted based on their citizenship status (i.e. Singapore Citizens, then Singapore Permanent Residents, then International Students). If there is still a tie, say between two Singapore Citizens, the one with the better gross aggregate score will be posted into the course first.\"

                  6 is a better gross aggregate score than 7, so if 2 singaporeans with 3 points are competing for a spot (one getting 6-3 and the other getting 7-4), the student who scored 6-3 will get the place first

                  \" If there is still a tie between two citizens with the same gross aggregate scores, then posting into the course will be determined by a computerised ballot where each candidate is given an equal opportunity.\"

                      posting to every jc is based on nett l1r5 first. do make sure you really have stuff worth appealing with, since even with 12 you're quite a few points off MJ's cutoff. and make sure you will be happy attending your second choice too in case your appeal does not work out.

                        I got a C5 for HMT :yikes: but plan to enter yllsom, will this C5 then affect my chances of getting in and will this also cause me to be prejudiced against people who score better than me in HMT but score the same with me in the other subjects for A levels?
