What happens to the presumably bottom 30% of A level students then? It's not a small group.

I remember seeing a line for applicants from A to apply for Poly admission, if I am correct.

yes there is this pathway. I wonder - should one repeat A levels, or start all over in Poly.

For me, if caught in this situation, no point starting all over in a Poly. I will rather enrol myself to take UK A level, instead

OR

Try IB

Actually I find Poly is interesting in a way can try take 1 course. If like can proceed to next level and if dont like can take some other different course. Am I correct arh ?

but the syllabus different leh, and donno how the local universities will regard the UK A level boards. Plus if taking UK A levels in Singapore, not sure if it will be considered as one does not do GP and PW and what not.

IB has an age limit. I donno whether if you finish and fail A levels, can do IB or not, or may be overaged.

A few options

1) they can re-take A Level (SEAB),
as a private candidate.

2) if their parents have $, can send them overseas for some \"bridging\" programme and then later, their child to apply for uni abroad.

3) some A level students applied for Poly

4) some A level students applied for IB overseas


5) Malaysian students will balek rumah, take UK A-level in Kuala Lumpur exam centre, throw away our Singapore SEAB A level.


6) For the boys,
enlist for Army first. Inside Army, got 2 years long time to slowly think of whats the next step to proceed.

For Msian students, isn't it better if they straight away take UK A instead of try SEAB A first?

Once u are inside a Poly course, u cannot suka suka change to another Poly course in Second year, unless got very valid reasons

Example

Say, after First year of nursing, I will faint, at the sight of blood. So, I appealed to change Poly course, at beginning of my Year 2. Then maybe, can, under this type of rare situation

I mean finished the 3 years Poly course. Then go take other course for Degree. But then I am not sure if can go for a Degree course after an unrelated courses in Poly though. No exemptions is ok but just need a green light to proceed to a unrelated private Degree course.
