      Hello! I would like to ask around for advice regarding this combination in JC


      H2 Chemistry, H2 Geography, H2 Math and H1 Econs

      Are there any Jcs that accept this combi? In addition, I would also like to ask if a hybrid combi is seen as a science stream or art stream?

      Thank you in advance!

      Can't advise you on which JCs, but it seems to me like some/most should. But I don't really know.
      Hybrid combos are considered \"science\".

      Most JCs are flexible with their combi these days and I believe most of them should offer that. My understanding is that hybrid combi can be applicable to both Science or Arts. For instance, if one chooses 3H2 and 1H1 combi with 2 sci subjects as H2, it's a sci hyrid combi. Alternatively, if he chooses 2 arts subjects as H2, it's an arts combi.
      E.g. of sci hybrid combi: H2 Math /H2 Chemistry /H2 Geog /H1 Econs (2H2 sci)
      E.g. of arts hybrid combi: H2 Geog/ H2 Econs/ H2 Chemistry/ H1 Math (2H2 arts)

        Does anybody knows where I can get the A level performance of the JCs ? Has anybody done a comparison with the different JC performance ?


        Some of the JCs publish their results on their websites. But different JCs publish different sets of results so it's very difficult to compare performance.

        Yes, agreed. Do not be confused and jumped to conclusion that JC X has definitely outdone JC Y since no JC will be displaying its full set of stats to anyone, including its own pupils.

          I see what you mean that a hybrid combo can be either Arts or Science if it's a 3H2/1H1 combo. I was thinking of a 4H2 combo. In that case, I think JCs regard that a \"Science\".

            Hi,


            Just want to check, will they allow a H2 Chem, H2 Econ, H2 Lit and H1 Math hybrid combination be accepted? Any views anyone. Thanks.

              Some JCs are more flexible than others in subject combos. It's best to check with the JC itself.

                Dear all,


                L1R5 results have just been released and I am looking for a JC for my son (raw score is 9 and he doesn’t get any bonus point). One of the key criteria is boarding facilities as he is in Singapore alone. Does anyone know if any of those JCs (Temasek, Eunoia, Anderson, St Joseph’s, St Andrew’s, etc) have the hostel? Many thanks

                  St Andrew's has boarding facilities.

                    For those looking at hybrid combi, do check with the school whether such combi is available and whether it is under arts or science. It is a hassle (and no guarantee) to do a transfer after you have gotten into the JC, especially if the COP for arts and science is different

                      hi guys. My son got an L1R5 raw of 8, with a bonus of 2 points. Is there really no chance for VJC or HCI? Putting either one in the JAE ranking would be a waste of time right?

                        Hi everyone, my daughter got 12 raw & 10 (-2 CCA points).

                        Thinking of SAJC or CJC (both 10 points). She’s also affiliated to the latter though probably won’t make a huge difference. Can’t pick between the two since they’re the main 2 she’s deciding between

                        Initially she actually wanted to go to SJI (7 points) or ACJC (8 points). She is wondering if she should list them on the JAE application, considering that schools are apparently going to increase cut off points due to mergers (though probably only by 1 or 2 points at max)

                        Will Eunoia down on the list somewhere though not that keen.

                        Any thoughts & advice, especially regarding CJC vs SAJC & possible increase in COP for SJI & ACJC?
