      Oh dear, my child more towards Nan Chiau but going chung cheng will give opportunity to take higher chinese without test.

      Don’t know whether to take risk in Nan Chiau if she can’t pass the test.
      Tomorrow morning has to put the choice liao…

        The test isn't the only way to take HCL for o lvl. It is possible to switch to HCL in yr 2 and 3 if ur child performed well for CL.


        Tho apart fm that be sure to settle down on a sch that she have a feel for and won't regret. 😄

            Chung Cheng affiliated to Nanyang JC
            Both have strong Chinese culture

            Where do you stay?

              Thanks for info.

              We chosen Nan Chiau 1st choice, Chung cheng 2nd. We followed the child liking though affiliation JC is important in future. But i think she will be the one going to the school 4 years so her interest is the point.
              Maybe friends will think we are ‘stupid’ but let it be. We trust everything will turn out well even she may not be able to take higher chinese in the end to have that bonus points in NC. Btw, we stayed in Punggol.
              All the best to every child 🙂

                The question should not be which school is good, but how much can YOU contribute to the school if you are present.

                  To paraphrase some fellow:
                  Ask not what your school can do for you, ask what you can do for your school.

                    Any chance of getting into NC with score of 240? Put it as 1st choice to gamble.

                      Affiliation with NYJC doesn't matter if you can score well and utilise other areas like CCA Bonus points. And why limit urself to NYJC if your child may have the potential to score well enough to qualify for other top tiers like VJ or Hwachong (since the cut-off points isn't that demanding compared to my time), isn't it?

                        I am a NY alumnus myself and I would just say aim higher instead of just zooming in on a particular JC at this point in time and ignoring other factors. I myself preferred Hwachong over NY and had been borrowing Hwachong notes quite often to study instead back den.


                        As for more detailed insights I can't offer any help since I was previously from Nan Hua and dk dat much of what is in Nan Chiau or Chung Cheng either.

                        Only thing I can say is that Nan Chiau is indeed more flexible than Nan Hua in terms of subject combi for o lvl. In Nan Hua we are forced to take 2 humanities in order to take 3 pure sciences just becoz the sch wants to push for more \"10 distinctions\" 🤷 . Not sure abt Chung Cheng but no such nonsense in Nan Chiau from what I know.
