HELP! Which JC should I go to with L1R5 11 pts nett/ 9 pts after minus 2pts

Im staying in the east.

In mind science stream:
AJCJ - 7 cut off point (not sure if i should try to put as first choice thou im 9 pointer)
SAJC - 9 cut off point (is it true as heard the culture is better but concern about the passing rate to enter local uni)
AJC - 9 cut off point (is it true that they are famous for harder paper and retainer is high, concern about the merging with Serangoon JC)
TJC - 9 cut off point (heard the culture is not so good and student arrogant)

Anyone can advise on the passing rate for A level to enter local uni (NTU/NUS and SMU) is higher and the culture of the school as still dilemma of which school to choose.

TJC without a doubt. Arrogant students are everywhere, same for nice students... The world is made up of different types of characters...

Changes in exam format;

H1 JC econ 2018: There is a drastically change on its format ,from partial case studies(70%) and essay(30%) to pure case studies 90 mark (100%). On the another hand ,H2 exam formats remains not much changes- Case studies 40% Easy 60%.

I am going on work trip next week on posting result day so won’t be around to help DS. In the event he needs to appeal to the choiced JC, what is the appeal process for JC and how can we prepare in advance? Thanks.

Seriously, I'm surprised that there is even a need to ask.

My impression is that most JCs hand out copious notes and worked examples. My daughters didn't use anything else!

Yes, he didn't buy any guide book or assessment book in J1 but out of sudden, he tells me he wants to do H2 Maths Topical assessment. Maybe he is not clear in some topics or wants to improve his speed?! I hv left him in auto-pilot mode last year and I am not familiar with A level books.

Cs Toh is not updated to the latest syllabus. You can get H2 maths topical practise by Lois Chee.
