      Dear friends:


      My son will take A Level this year and serve NS next year. He plans to apply for Oxford or Cambridge next year when he is in 1st year of NS. In such, is he allowed to take leave from NS to attend the interview with Oxford or Cambridge in Nov/Dec?

      Thanks and regards,

        Cambridge and Oxford do send their profs to Singapore to interview. That might be an option if your son can't take leave to go to England.

          Can only apply to one. Not both.

              Yes, you can apply leave fr NS to attend interview. For Cambridge, he will have face to face interview (note application deadline is usually mid Sep for those who wish to be interviewed in S'pore, and mid Oct for interview in Cambridge). For Oxford, interview is via Skype.

                  Yes it is possible but it depends on whether your JC will allow it.

                    Yes it is possible but it depends on whether your JC will allow it.

                    Usually it will only be granted for strong students, and dependent on whether timetabling permits. Also consider that the regular workload is already heavy, plus CCA, and you may want to take a H3 later on.

                        I thought 3H2 + 2H1 (include GP) is the norm for all JCs. It's only 4 H2 + 1 H1 (GP) that is offered in the top and mid tier JCs?

                        Yes? No??
