      Thanks, so nice of you to offer. Yes, she is currently sharing cab to bishan with 2 others but one of them is dropping out soon. Not sure if we can do temp transfer to Ghim Moh, will find out. Thing is she is also not really coping and is worried that it will pull down overall GPA. Was told 3rd lang will hv weightage of 5 credits in term 4. šŸ˜ž

      You mean that there's been no contribution to GPA from 3rd Lang to-date?

      thats right. nothing as yet. but term 4 will kena very jia lat - 5 credits

          A pity to drop if he has interest in that language and is doing well. Perhaps next yr's badminton will not clash with 3rd lang?

            Most CCAs have practices/training 2x/week, by the way.

              Ah, music is 4 credits. The number of credits is usually based on the number of hours per week, isn't it?

              does that mean 3rd lang is extra 5 hours per week?

                  Can put 4, but someone would not be wearing seatbelt!

                        It's alright - we'll manage... if she is still keen, that is. Will have to decide soon....
