Double Maths
Apart from that, no other necessary prerequisites.

Hi doodbug, if she can choose between A-math and POA, which one would you recommend? Considering that she is able to get good marks for both.

A Maths for sure. For more future pathways. If going to JC, A Maths is a must, to take H2 Maths.

Can anyone give some advice on humanities subjects? which ones are more manageable? which ones are easier to score more marks?

The one that you like and have a greater interest in would be the one that’s easier to score more marks and more manageable.

The truth and reality is that the answer differs from person to person.

During my time (donkey years ago!), more students took geog in my school as apparently it was easier to score. I had decided to take history instead as that was my interest. My cohort did really well and 80% of both geog & history had A1s. I also got mine!

So... also depends on the school. Some schools always do better In humanities ...

Power.

Language was never my forte. Hence, I’ve calculated that the best that I can achieve is B3 for my humanities. Add in a B3 for English, my baseline would be 6 points for L1R5. Just needed all distinctions for the rest of the 4 subjects.

Easy.

I would suggest taking Literature as one of the Humanities subjects.
Literature teaches universal values. It enhances the ability to empathize with others, considers situations from the perspective of others and gains an understanding of the human condition.

This will increase their appreciation of the English language. Literature is useful for preparing the General Paper and Economics topic for JC.

Double pure Science and Double humanities offers more choices as compared to Triple pure Science and single humanities. Based on merits, students with higher percentage chose Double pure science and double humanities and triple pure science with single humanities subject is not so favoured nowadays. You only need to do double Science and a contrasting subjects in JC. Taking triple pure science with one humanities is like a gamble. Pray hard you study hard and score well for that single humanities. With double Science subjects, you have a choice to use one of the better Humanities subjects to gain entry to JC.

if take double humanities, one of the subjects has to be a pure subject and the other an elective?
