I've heard of a set of triplets (year 2s) who are in RI/HCI/NJC and they say NJC is the best among the 3. Best in what sense? Sori, dunno bc I only met briefly.

I dunno, just a thought, could it be that maybe they try to be nice only leh ...

... if they meet RI parents, they say RI is the best ......
... if they meet HCI parents, they say HCI is the best .....
... if they meet NJC parents, they say NJC is the best ...

In any case, for MdmKS info, not sure if it is useful, cut-off for 2010 entrance to HCI & NJC is the same (257) and for RI is 2 points higher (259)

Please bear in mind that HCI cut-off 257 inclusive of Higher Chinese points, as for NJC without HCL:D

Anyway, I just checked the handbook. Art is under P/F grading. These P/F graded subjects are not a constituent to GPA, lah ... my son *blur*.

The school DID put Art into the GPA!!!!! So it affected my son's GPA .

It's just 1 credit. As long as there are some other well done subjects, the GPA wont be too low, right?

Conversational Malay is under P/F grading system, not A/F grading system. GPA is calculated for subjects under the A/F grading system.

For more details, refer to the yellow booklet \"Academic Prog information\".

Yes, all those subjects(art, PE, etc) are not under A/F grading, but they were put into the GPA nevertheless for this term. Interestingly, electives were not graded and not counted in GPA for Term 1.

The average GPA for JH1 for this term 1 was thus 3.36.

My boy's name was spelled wrongly in the GPA result slip (hence returned the slip to teacher in charge to correct, did not bring home today). He said the computation is aka PSLE t-score, not the student's raw score. And also he confirmed his French was not included in the GPA. Also said his carelessness in the Maths test brou his GPA down.

3.36 is at least a B. Seems like the cohort is doing fairly well.
