* Nanyang JC (NYJC)
-
I spoke to my children’s Sec. Sch. mate who is now J2 in NYJC. I asked him what’s the reason NYJC consistently doing well in A level. He said due to NYJC mugging culture. After lessons ended for the day, students will study in library/ at tables around the school. the school is pack with students studying after lessons. It’s common for students go back school during weekend/PH to study. Many class tests. Not short quiz but hour long test. Those fail class test compulsory to attend remedia lesson. Students frequently seeking consultation with teachers. He says culture is that students think they have to be productive once they step into the school.

Yes. I heard from my child that they have got a mugging culture over there.

Seem like good old fashion studying hard is the
reason NYJC A level results are better than IP schools, and a proof with confidence, that PSLE results are not deterministic of future academic performance?
How NYJC inculcate such work hard mindset in their students, batch after batch? NYJC good at motivating students ? -
To be honest, i would not want my child to be in a school that is excessive in mugging. I will rather that he has a balanced JC life where other all aspects are developed uniformly. Employees today do not look solely on grades anymore. (In fact there are already so many kids out there with perfect scores). You need to stand out with other abilities in your interview and portfolio.
Just curious, has NYJC produce any President scholars? -

mugging' is another word for studying and 'mugger' is to describe a very studious person.

Nice words to use- to study consistently in JC which is less than 2 yrs span then its A level.
JC is the toughest hurdle, then in Uni can relax more as its not so paper n pen kind exams.
Bad choice of words used by parents/students jealous of Nyjc and to scare potential students applying Nyjc- mugging.
There is definitely a balanced JC Nyjc life- with many allocated Ny college events to participate/chill on from Nyjc Calendar events.
Its how students manage time.
Nyjc has a conducive study campus- campus is opened on weekends for students.
Ny students love to study inside college with peers, chill at Nex for a decent meal/nearby popular coffeeshop, then back in campus to continue study or CCAs.
Its a healthy motivation amongst the Ny students, rallying one another to study consistently.
They study openly, no closet where other JC kids go back to mug or study at home.
Which JCs you go dont need you to study or mug regularly, pls. Unless you want bad rp.
President scholars?
Is your DC a scholar in the first place?
Same old topic keeps dwelling about President scholars😁 -

I am ok with mugging. But excessive mugging such that it become a culture is disconcerting. I am certainly for culture of innovation or creativity but culture of mugging???

As to President scholars , they are assessed on all fronts to ascertain that they are all rounders, possessing unique abilities that stand out from the mass cohort.
I am asking this question as it will give me insights on how NYJC trains its students. Overly skewed towards academics is not necessarily a bonus. I have interviewed candidates with stellar academic results in interviews but they failed miserably in articulation.
FYI even VJC NJC ACJC etc all have produced President scholars. Wouldnt NYJC produce any in her alnost 50 years of history? -
Nothing wrong for students to study hard, esp for A levels. The best get to pick their choice course and get scholarship.
Better that everyone in sch works hard together, all learn together and help each other, than some skeletons mugger culture. -

FYI, there are so many students getting PSC scholarships every year in RI that they have a dedicated PSC desk in campus. RI students study hard too but whats in RI students and culture that makes them stand out against others? Have you ever thought about it? -

Mugging is interpreted differently by many.
Someone said as long its study together, not closet mugger like in other JCs, nothing wrong.
Whats excessing to you.
In Nyjc, it isnt no life.
We can see Nyjc students happy.
Happy students = good results. Thats 1 for good formula.
I dont understand why you love to dwell on
PSC scolarships just like....
Your DC isnt from NYJC.
Dont need to choose NYJC for your future DC/D grandchildren.
Is yr DC a scholar, my question. -

Its ok, send your DC to RI if yr DC age still eligible to study A level😁.

You should Go and worry about those other 'play hard study hard' JCs.
Dont waste time on Nyjc.
