Thank you Phtthp.

top JCs’ students achieving good exam results is expected and not a surprise because the school take in all the academically strong. Statistically these students should continue to do well. RI and HCI doing best is expected because their COP are tied at 4. NYJC’s COP is next in rank at 5, so their A level performance coming in after RI/HCI is also expected.

If a school that is mid rank in term of COP, but performance in say top 3 for A level, then that is something to be in awe for. That school has value added.

For those students who are not aiming to get overseas scholarships, doing A level curriculum at any top jc A, B or C, it should not matter too much, I feel. So if students want non IP JC, and one with good sch and teachers support, NYJC seems to have the correct formula. Plus the location is relatively centralised and near MRT station. All the good feng shui elements.

I think many students are from CCHM? So pseudo SAP culture?
Without affliation bonus, some students enter with 7 nett instead of 5 nett. In comparison with JAE choosing RI, HCI, EJC, NJC, there is no affliation bonus points. VS has affliation bonus points to VJC.
Based on this yr reported A level results, NYJC did perform very well.

Hmm… CCHM’s students most of them take HCL. Its 2 bonus points is applicable to any JC. Most of the students dont have to turn to NYJC affiliation bonus point, and restrict themselves to NYJC. So the group of CCHM students with gross 7 point (let’s exclude CCA bonus for now to simplified discussion) , minus 2 point (affiliation or HCL bonus, can only choose 1, bcos of max 4 out of 6 rule) , =5 point, this group of students can choose EJC,NJC, ASCI, RI/HCI art stream, on top of NYJC. Not necessarily restricted to NYJC. Because of the flexibility to HCL bonus point.

I agree NYJC has a good nuturing culture.

We will not know for sure the proportion of those from CCMH with hcl, chose RI/HCI/EJC/VJC vs NYJC. Any idea/indication?

but there will be those without HCL, \"captive\".

Hope to see more good results in years to come.

For discussion sake: My child told me 90% of CCHM students in his cohort took HCL O level. Assuming on an optimistic assumption, 90% of them passed HCL O level, = 81% of the cohort pass HCL O level. majority of CCHM students do not have to rely on affiliation bonus point, even if they choose NYJC - most of them already have the HCL bonus point. My opinion is, it will be just like any students with HCL from any schools and uses it bonus point to enroll into RI/HCI/EJC/NJC. Getting into NYJC primarily with affiliation bonus (deem as non academic merit), is small %.

that is my reason NYJC, taking in mostly students with strong academic merits , achieving such good A level performance, is in line with statistical outcome. Of course I am not taking away the recognition of hard works of the teaching staffs of NYJC, to realise the statistic potential of its students. Maybe realise it with more efficiency/even more care than other schools’ curriculums

I read the reddit post. How can nyjc have stellar resuts when its median is only an estimated figure? All the other JC posted actual median RI HCI EJC VJC which was really stellar

Estimated figure? Check this.

Vjc result stellar ah, nope, Vjc didnt do that well.
Ejc result.... meh.

Wa, :congrats:
Nyjc steadily glitching top few JC spot, amongst the IP JCs.

It has been on my mind for sometimes. Can we draw any conclusions from NYJC’s performance: Are we saying PSLE results is a predictor of all future academic results such that all JAE students (outside top 10% according to PSLE) should not expect to do better than IP students (top 10% according to PSLE) in A level? Because of this belief, NYJC being a pure JAE intake JC, doing better in A level than many IP JCs , is an unexpected big achievement? Or PSLE is not a final predictor as we think, and students can still over take those that did better than them during PSLE, later in life? There will alway be exception but I looking at in general, what will happen to the majority. Or NYJC doing better than many IP JCs is a combination of PSLE is not deterministic plus its curriculum is better than IP JCs?


I fee if there is a significant insight from what is happening in NYJC, future generations will benefit from this insight and be happier , less stressful?
