      What do you want to do? Poly? JC?


      For JC, you are still eligible for conditional admission. See here:

          As you have D7 for English, it’s best to go to Poly because GP is a killer in JC.

            It looks like a freak result for English, esp when all other subject results like combined humanities are good. Don’t lose hope, good luck!

              My case is pretty special . I achieved 6As and 1 D7 for English for my O level result. Any advice on what to do?


              Eng D7
              Maths A1
              A Maths A1
              Physics A2
              Chemistry A2
              Combined Humanities A2
              Chinese A1
              Yes, pretty special! I would go for JC: you are clearly academically-oriented. Well done on the other subjects.

              Your English result is anomalous. Try to analyse what happened, and then seek to remedy any shortcomings you identify.

              GP in JC is a killer. It is necessary for admission to the local universities. However, I think - please do check as I may not be up-to-date with the latest policies - in the worst case scenario of your not obtaining a good grade in GP you can still be admitted to the local universities via a qualifying English test conducted by the universities themselves; and even if you fail this test, you can still be admitted provided you take a compulsory course in English, which you must pass in order to graduate.

                  Or KI. Otherwise, the qualifying test or conditional admission as I outlined.

                  I always have to remind my science stream students 'Take GP seriously'!

                      Yes, you can apply for admission. However, if you failed GP, you will not qualify for certain courses such as Law which will require a GP grade of at least 'B3' (for old syllabus), 'B' (for new...
