Crester:

Greetings,

A level results day 23th, we were in college.
Cohort 2017 of Nyjc did very well- better than 2016 cohort.
Pls see NYJC U-Tube video on 2017 A level results.

Principal shared verbally in hall:
- all subjects with 99.XX % passes
- he read out many H1/H2 subjects with Distinctions above National Avg
- specially mentioned that GP Distinctions was better than yr 2016- above 42% ( National Avg is 24.4%).
- more than 4 out of 10 students got 3 H2 Distinctions with GP passes.



From my own observation:
- This yr, numbers of students with 3H2 Distinctions with GP passes is closed to 300 ( I counted students going up stage but kind of lost count. Ny Facebook stated that number is also closed to 300 ). Based on yr 2017 cohort, that is about 43-44%.
Year 2016 there were 251 students ( I have Nyjc annual 2017 yearbook confirmed 251 students got 3 H2 Distinctions).


- H2 Chemistry 66.3%
- H2 Maths 68% , Further Maths 75% ( reported by another parent)

Congratulations to nyjc! What is its average rank point?
I heard that while many did very well, some of DC's friends' seniors did not perform as expected.
The average rank point will be a better indicator.
Your DC was from nyjc? Do share his achievement and why you would recommend nyjc.

From above article, one of the affected nyjc students stated that he had left 1/3 of the script unanswered but somehow got an A. I wonder if that incident helped to improve nyjc's chem and overall performance too? Afterall, the national exam is about how you perform on one exam and not taking one's past performances in school into consideration. Paper 3 is also by far the most challenging paper among the 4 papers.

How about the rest of the subjects? You mentioned that you were present but why did you quote the above information as reported by another parent? They weren't officially announced to the cohort?

This student had gained an unfair advantage :yikes: and I wonder how many more had. He shouldn't publicize it in the first place. :spank:

Please attach the mentioned youtube.

Do you mean what he shared verbally in the hall was recorded on the youtube?

Crester, you used to mention that nyjc is great in 'value-adding'. Care to share first hand how it applies to your dc's performance?

It is unusual that Crester is not sharing his/her DC's performance and showing gratitude to nyjc first hand. :?
Is there a problem? :evil:
This thread is 'dead' with the departure of mindays & crester.

NYJC could have done better than that?

Either the school is very strict with the marking scheme or the students waste too much time on b-g-r. My personal observation is that there are many 'couples' in nyjc. The most I've seen among all the jcs. It's comparable to cjc during my school days. :callme:

Congrats to your colleague's DS!
Well, these days, anyone who scored well can possibly be accepted into NUS/NTU medicine. My friend's child from MJC was accepted too.
