not thinking of Dunman with the gd score ? Integrated Prog immediate and heard a gd school cop was 258

I'm thinking of that school but because I would be borderline case plus my chinese is weak, I'm afraid I would not be able to cope in DHS. I selected Cedar Girls because I would be able to secure an O Level certificate and go on to JC if I want to if I can't get into IP Programme at sec 2.

oic , my views- the more u immerse yrself in a chinese valued school like dunman and sap , chinese will surely improve interacting with students gd in chinese . moreover yr psle score qualify yeah !!![/quote]u got 2 from HMT , how weak can yr chinese be haha

What I meant by not being able to cope in DHS,especially the chinese, is that if I get into DHS, I'm afraid that the chinese will be really hard. Cedar girls chinese standard isn't as high.

How bad my chinese can go? Well perhaps my writing and answering isn't bad. But when it comes to history of china and chinese literature, i'm an absolute idiot. I didn't know who was kongzi until my friend kindly informed me at DHS open house. :x So i think i will do well in Cedar if i didn't have to spend alot of my time on my chinese and working hard on my other subjects. ^^

There is no loss for you to come to Cedar.

Last year’s COP was 246, so 249 should be ok.

My score was 249, do you think I can get into cedar? I put my second choice as St Margaret's (which I definately regret! :() So if I don't get into cedar, is there a way to amend my choices?

Hi fellow potential schoolmate ! Your chances are good I suppose, based on the COP for last year. Nope, no way to amend your choices. I think you should be able to get into Cedar. Some say COP may rise due to going-to-be IP status while others say will drop due to overall lower national average(if I ain't wrong). Goodluck anyways ! Hope to see you in Cedar ! I hope to get in too.

u sure u wanna to give up DHS with yr score?
nevermind abt kongzi, u'll \"see kongzi\" everyday when u go to DHS :lol:

fyi, there are some minority of my gal's classmates who had gotten only a PASS in HCL (though majority of them are mainly merit).
when u 're in that environment, you'll def thrive yr best and improve on HCL.
so long u are willing to put in more effort, and more time
i believe u def can do well based on yr intelligence and diligence as read from yr past postings here.
moreover, u have yr parents to help u along as u mentioned in yr PM.

btw, for sec1, chinese literature is not a real concern in DHS as only 1 or (maybe 2) graded assignment during the school holidays.
fyi, my gal also dislikes chinese history and literature......
