Anyone with ds in Sec 3 or Sec 4 can confirm if HCI students need to take CL O Level exam in Sec 3, or only need to take HCL O Level exam in Sec 4? TIA.

Can someone pls. share how those tests taken in T3 that were not reflected in T3 progress report gg to be accounted for? DS teachers told them the marks will be entered into T3 results but how...when the T3 progress report had already been issued....I'm confuse.. :? Probably those parents with DS Sec 2 & above can enlighten me on this. Also, will there be any more test this term before the EOY exams? DS took his chinese test y-day....so I wonder if there are more test to come...

My Sec 2 boy told me the same. Sorry, nothing more I could share. I suppose the school will take care of the computation of final marks.

Emailed to the teachers & finally got a clearer picture. Basically those tests not taken in will be added on to the overall T1-T3 marks, the final total will constitute 30% & the EOY exams will consitute 70%.

In term 4, we only need to take the english and chinese test hich would be computed in the 30% that the term tests make up

Anyway.....i wonder in today's world, one can read more and learn more thing in the internet than books.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.


Yes, I'm referring to HCJC which they call it HCI (College).

Does my daughter have a chance like this? I told her the same thing, no harm giving it a try. Given her status (neighbourhood sch student), a teachers' recommendation is a bonus to her, however, she is afraid that the teacher might laughed behind her back saying that she is just an average student and that even the top student of the sch can't even get into HCI and she, an average student want to get in blah blah blah...

I'm not sure if HCI (College) will look down on students from neighbourhood college because I find my daughter achievements rather acceptable compared to the top students in her sch. I think that... the only problem lies in her academic only... she has leadership and sporting talent...

Well, let's just say, I shall encourage her to try her luck... though chances are really slim... 0.00001% ....

Thanks guys.

as long as she is not usually late for class, and does not lag behind in languages,should be fine. To get in, she needs to pass both languages.
