TJC or Victoria - Which is a better suited JC for students looking to apply overseas for University ? Which school provided better guidance for higher education and University Applications ?

If you have the intention to go for overseas university, maybe you can read up more about the IB program.

Why is it that JCs don't offer Accounting subject anymore?

It is still being offered to Science stream and Commerce stream students at Millennia Institute:

I think it was more popular before polys started having so many business/finance courses. Probably too little demand for it at JCs. The only school to offer A level Accounting is MI.

Btw i found it interesting that there are 6, 8 and 9-pointers (respectively in the 3 streams) in MI:

Based on my daughter's time there, not all students in MI are necessarily very weak academically. Some of them are returning Singaporeans and want a longer adjustment period. Some might have medical reasons for wanting a slower pace. Some may have been weaker in English and want an extra year to prepare for GP.

so sad. that means if the student is really keen on POA, he has to take 3 years to do an A level.

Can consider taking an Accounting diploma & move onto year 2 in uni accounting.

The gap between A-levels & uni accounting modules was huge during my time in NUS Bizad. I could barely scraped through the later with a distinction in former + a total of 6 months of accounts clerk & IRAS taxation work experience prior to uni. :spank:
