      Thks MMM and slmkhoo. Yes, I do agreed that it’s an advantage to take econ now and have less struggle later in Uni if she were to take up business related course. That’s why we are weighing the choice base on interest or a subject that would help and lighten her load in the future.

      My dd is an avid reader and true she love discussing the content of books thus taking up E lit this far. She is quite open to both but to further E lit in A level would be a new challenge for her as what she told me. Thus I assume her heart is more lean towards E lit. I told her to follow her heart and study a subject of her interest seem a natural choice and will ultimately produce good result.😬🤔

      So far she still not sure what course to pursue in Uni and also if the choice of combi would affect her chance in Uni. Thks for clearing my doubts and did feel more assure now.
      Yes, let her do what she likes - it doesn't close off avenues later, just that she will have to study a bit more if she does take Econs later. In our case, we were the ones who quite strongly persuaded our daughter to study Econs. It was new to her, of course, but we felt that, knowing her, it was the type of subject that suited her. She trusted us enough to take our advice (although we left the final choice to her), and luckily our assessment proved right in the end.

        Hi. I wonder Dunman High (Senior) and TJC, have very close cut off. What are the difference between the two schools’ culture and what are the factors to consider between the two.

          Dunman High is quite strong Chinese based. Cohort is small too compared to TJC J1 & 2

            Hi Hi,


            I have an O-level child looking to go to ACJC/NJC next year. We live in the East and so need some help in terms of bus/transport providers. Does anyone know of some contacts?

            The schools are so far from where I live. Am wondering if I should move and rent/buy a place instead?

                  You don't need to shift,

                  because

                  these are good A-level JCs, in the east :

                  Victoria JC,
                  Dunman High ,
                  Temasek JC

                  However, if you are planning far ahead for university years later in local NUS or NTU, then Yes, good to shift nearer

                    Go uni also no need to shift - just stay in hostel if need be. It’s actually a great experience as many hall programmes have been revamped to integrate residential living and learning.

                        Njc has boarding house.

                        Why travel all way to acjc or njc.
                        Not worth the precious time.
                        you see their rank point
                        Acjc rp is 79
                        Njc rp is low 80++
