GP isn’t that difficult if your teacher told u the right formula. Basically just give the For and Against, then sum up with your opinion and why u lean towards For or Against. And i’m pretty sure you’re up to date on political and other general knowledge issues, and can wax on about them. A1 there u go.
TBH, I did :rotflmao: I had also benefited from doing pure physics and double math for my O.
In JC, I was wondering why everyone was so busy and complaining about the A Level / workload. GP was a killer though. Most difficult subject for me and I couldn’t study for it, even if I wanted to

My angmoh was bad (is still bad) but I am just glad I didn’t have to attend that dreadful English class in university for students who didn’t score B3 (or was it B4) for GP and didn’t clear the internal English exam.
A reason that I probably didn’t have much of an interest in GP was due to the tutor. She managed to make F Math far more interesting than GP and that’s really something

Those kids still have regular exams in schools right? Schools are are allowed to conduct not more than 1 WA per subject per term. I guess that would count as some sort of practice.
I think this is a real concern, especially for the IP kids who may not have that much practice in the first place, having skipped O-Level. -

The key is relevant skills/experience. Unless he applying to theatre studies…so if want Medicine, maybe he go overseas do some humanitarian medical aid is better…
To one-up those pesky 变脸 practitioners, I'll tell my kid to swallow sword, breathe fire, walk on his hands, all at the same time!

You can’t do medical aid if you don’t really have medical background leh.

How about performing to humanitarian relief efforts so as to reduce the aid workers and survivors level of stress, suffering and bringing back some humanity to their situation? Does that count?
It’s the LinkedIn generation, I’m sure they can think of something to smoke. -

WA is short duration test held during the curriculum hours for that particular subject.

Eg: WA Maths 1h+ versus JC Maths exam which require 3h practice.
I would think the only time for a full paper practice would be EOY or prelim exam. -

JC2 from 2025 will be affected (JC1 cohort from 2024).
How about J2, no mid yr too ?
There will be no mid-year examinations for students of junior colleges and Millennia Institute (MI) for cohorts entering the schools from 2024, announced the Ministry of Education (MOE) on Wednesday (Mar 1).
The removal of mid-year examinations will not be replaced by more school-based assessments, and JCs and MI must not administer more than one weighted assessment per term, MOE said in a separate press release.

no mid yr for J1 is ok, as they just join, need time to adjust to the extensive depth of subjects

Frankly, I thought the mid yr will help J2 to prep for pre-lim then eventually A level. same thought for Sec 4 students preparing for O , N level, mid yr is a mid check point -

Currently, JC1s have (1) Block Tests; and (2) Promos at the end of the year. The weightage of (1) and (2) differ by school.

So next year onwards, theoretically there could be (1) Term 1 test (2) Term 2 test (3) Term 3 test and (4) Promo exams?
