      thanks for the elaboration. that is why the need for a \"contrasting\" subject, and in schools like SCGS, Lit is compulsory !

      yeah, i was in SCGS.... and my Lit was really hopeless!

        How about CLEP?

        what about CLEP ? It is at JC level and is only offered at a few JCs : TJC, NYJC, HCI, JJC & DHS, pertaining to Chinese Language

        this is not to be confused with the new Bicultural program starting at secondary level offered by only HCI, DHS & NYGH with leadership component

        (this is my understanding, I may be wrong, info may be incomplete)

          CLEP provides you with 2 extra bonus score, which can add up to 6 when applying for Junior colleges.

          Look under \"bonus points section\"

            ok. got it. based on O level result, to do CLEP at JC, not for sec 1

            however, those who are under the bicultural program at sec 1/sec 3 will not need that extra bonus points since they are already in the 3 IP schools (HCI/NYGH/DHS)
