Can someone please enlighten me if DS can apply to more than 1 course in each university? TIA

Yes, it will be good if your DS maximises his choice! All the best

I’ve noticed DHS has been rather quiet this year. There’s no update of 2016 A Level results on the school website (its still showing 2015 results). DHS forum @ KSP is also very quiet after the release of A Level results (unlike past years).


DHS has always been in close ‘fight’ with NJC for 4th place, hence the school has always been very prompt in reporting her A Level results. Or so I thot…

FF,
DHS 2016 A level batch had done better than the previous year...
I do not have the statistics with me ( since my gal alrdy grad from the sch) but feedback from junior ... overall % of distinctions improved in individual H2 subjs...with H2 Geog being the most Impressive...91%

I also wonder why they havent update the sch website...Let's wait for more info to be uploaded...

Pretty sure DHS is past 4th place with this year’s results. If it’s anything, it’s 3rd.

DHS has been consistently producing good A level results so I won't be surprised.

Congrats to the 2016 cohort !!!!!

Would your DS rather forgo a place in local university for a private one as only the latter offers him his first choice course? Please share. TIA.

Speaking for myself only.

Points of consideration:
1) does that first choice course lead to a desired career and is that door closed if he goes to the local university to do other courses?
2) is that private university accepted by PMO (long ago, I was told that this is the benchmark for employers - if PMO don't recognize, then many employers may not)
3) Finances - is it a concern?

Good luck with your ds choices!

Hi Augmum..

Thanks for your prompt reply. Wow, 91% distinction for H2 Geog is remarkable. I understand it's not easy to score distinctions for humanities subjects (except Eng Lit).

NJC has updated briefly on her A Level results on the school website. Hopefully, DHS will update on hers soon. Seems like most JCs have decided to keep their A Level performances confidential, despite having 'fantastic' results. :evil:
