Firstly, I empathise that your Saturday was a boring one. On the contrary it was a family bonding day for me. Back to the main topic, whatever schools that start at 730, 8 or even 830, I feel that there is no focus in any of our arguments. What then is the point you are driving at? Is it related to the betterment of any college?
I am reading your posts with great amusement. You are missing the entire picture.mindays:
No, you still don't get it. The fact is that, clubs and societies have 2 CCAs per week. During exam periods, there may be less. During competition period, there may be more. I agree, but that's not the point. The point is, what is the designed time of these CCAs by the school? If it is 2 times/week, then just say so. Also, what do you mean by CCA can start earlier when J2s have their Chinese exams over? Do CCAs not have a fixed timing, how do they start earlier? Is your DC a J2 yet? How then do you know?
The point of contention is if school starts early, it will definitely end earlier. CCA plays a part but it only takes up a couple of days in a week on average. When school end earlier, CCA typically can start earlier. You are just trying to nitpick extreme examples which will occur under every situation but that does not mean is the norm.
Your contention is that it does not matter if school start at 730am, 8am, 830am because they will always end at the same time ??? If that premise is even remotely true, why then do you not find all the other JCs start school at 830am or even 9am.
Your responses are providing me great entertainment value on a boring Saturday afternoon. -

'Dawned upon' is more formal and less frequently used than 'dawned on', but both are correct. Stetan didn't make any mistake here.
It looks like you perceive that my grammar is wrong, but according to merriam-webster, https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/dawn%20on, I am right. This is why some people only think that they are in the capacity to correct someone when he/she is at fault.mindays:

Has it dawned upon ( not on ) you that I only wrote this comment after you wrote this message attacking another forummer ?
And I was only reflecting to you how apt the description seems to suit you.
己所不欲，勿施于人
Mindrays.. You're wrong to use 'dawned on to'. It should be 'dawned on',[/quote]And if you feel that this is a good contribution to this thread, I rest my case. Just like stetan, was it really necessary? -
Whatever it is, this thread seems to be heavily orientated on other JCs or even unrelated topics on NYJC. Until relevant inputs are discussed, I shall refrain from entertaining the bunch of haters.

I had to show NYJC result as anti NYJC had always commented that NYJC COP drops due to non academic factors ( yes can be true ). But NYJC academic results is also a factor- its 2015 GCE A level has shown. Now, its 2016 GCE A level results has proven.
They can choose what they want to belief, is alright.
The info below is meant to share with parents and students who are Keen in NYJC.
Brief update on NYJC 2016 ‘A’ Level results.
Extract from its Term 2 Newsletter:
"We are extremely proud of our Class of 2015/16
who have done very well in the 2016 ‘A’ level ex- amination. Close to 40% of the cohort achieved
3H2 distinction with at a pass in GP and in terms
of value addedness, our college is one of the high- est among the JCs/Centralised Institute. Thank you
and all the best Class of 2015/16! "

I agree! The students here are really hardworking. I only know 2 Nanyang JC students (super small sample : ) ) But they are diligent and exam savvy. More importantly, they are v proud and happy to be in NYJC.
NYJC is a good JCCrester:

Looks like NYJC does have the ability to outbeat an IPJC like RVHS? :congrats:
The next round will be held at TJC. -
No offense to students of RVH n TJC, but they are indeed underperforming as IPJCs. Maybe they should also merge?
