* Eunoia JC (EJC)

[mommyNg]

There are many EJC students who did well! Great performance for the new kid on the block. With a mean of 82.4 RP, it just means that there are also students in EJC who did not do as well (which is perfectly normal). One of my colleague's son from EJC got 76.25 RP.

[quote=Lifeishard post_id=1899605 time=1551015497 user_id=39228]Is this good results? Saw from the other link, most JCs got 85?

I only know HCI hit 85 this year. Many other JCs got less. Many are 80 and below. Where you get the information that most JCs got 85?

I saw in another link about A level results 2019... a few listed JCs 84 to 85....but I not sure leh cos I saw Ejc is 82.4.....pls pardon me
Ermm I did not see any that was below 80 maybe not listed or what...[/quote]But you said many JCs got 85...if you see the link posted by ptthp, among the top ranked JCS, only HCI got 85

Does your list includes Tampines, Jurong, Pioneer, Yishun, Serangoon JC etc? Is it why you dont see the below 80s?

A few listed JCs with mean UAS 84-85?

If you exclude the two big giants RI/HCI, I only see DHS on the list with mean UAS 84. And I won’t be surprised if it is 83.9 or 83.8 correct to 2 significant figures.

NJC’s reported median UAS of 84.4, not mean. Historically, the median UAS is usually 1-3 points higher than the mean. If NJC mean UAS is 2 points lower, it will be 82.4, same as EJC!

Do you mind share which link show \"most JCs\" got 85?

Could be anything from 83.1-83.9
DHS already reported 44.8% 3 H2 distinctions as “almost 50%”
It’s all how the school wanna present the data to look ‘nicer’.
Eg. 3 in 10 can also be reported as about 1 in 2 :boogie:

Possible that DHS mean UAS may not necessary be exactly 84 as claimed. Similarly for HCI when someone said the mean UAS = 85, it could also be anything from 84.1-84.9. If HCI mean = 84.1, and NJC mean =84.3, then NJC mean UAS is even higher than HCI ! Perhaps historically for RI(JC), its median > mean, but we cannot say for sure this is the same for all other schools unless we know their \"history\" of A level means and medians to make that claim.

In sum, without full information, we can twist, say and interpret however we want, so fun !

What is the definition of mean (average) UAS, in Junior College ?

[snowyqueen]

Max UAS = 90. It consists of 3H2 + 1H1(worst H2 downgrade to H1) + GP + PW.

So 3X20 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 90. Those got 8 or 9 dist, probably they take 2H3 + including HMT. To take 2 H3 subject needs the approval of MOE, so only probably RI or HCI can produce such results. EJC does not hv students taking 2 H3, so max for them is 8 dist.
As a parent, i felt relieved after they announced the results. It was not bad considering the fact that it was the first batch of ip students from 3 feeder schools and they formed ejc first batch of jip students with jae students. Everything started from scratch. The effort was commendable.
I do not think we should focus so much on mean UAS. By being in a school with high UAS doesnt automatically earn one a place to get the score, its still ownself’s effort and motivation to make use of the resources to try to excel in A levels. It clearly proved that ejc can also produce high achievers with good no. of distinctions. They already produced a handful of jc scholars and they will go on to produce their first batch of uni scholars.
