insider:

I was pondering why my son's L1R5 is not 18 but 19 (his Chinese is a C5 but Humanities is a C6) coz if taking Chinese of 5 with his the other 5 subjects, it should be an 18.

My daughter said can only take 1 language and so once english is in it, chinese cannot be in it and so the computation excluded Chinese and took the Humanities.

I guess you have to specifically put a humanities subject in the computation, eg. geog, history, eng-literature, social studies, etc.

Hey all could I check with y'all something?

If my HCL (higher chinese) has been counted in my L1, would I still get my 2 bonus point from passing higher chinese? (not the cca points) 'coz I heard from someone that if my HCL was taken in for L1, I would not get the bonus points. Hope someone could kindly clarify this

Thanks in advance :D~

You are still eligible for the 2 bonus points.

My Niece got 9 points for her L1R5 (after deduction of CCA). Which JC would be good for her? Her school have an affiliation to Anglo Chinese JC which gives her an additional 2 points off. Is ASJC a good choice?

There are 12 choices to put in - have to fill in all 12, ah? I mean, 3 or even 5 is tough enough, but 12?! If not, then put the rest blank?

[quote]Crescent girls has the most top students with 9 A1s.

Looking at the names, maybe 8 out of 9 Chinese top scorers from Crescent Girls are from China......[/quote]Impressed with their determination and effort to do well for their English. Read today's report on how they started with writing 1 essay and do 1 compre passage daily in Sec 3 and then increased to 2 daily in Sec 4, just to do well in the subject. If my kids can just do 1 or 2 weekly, on their own accord, I will be very happy

Self motivation, determination and independent study, all crucial factors to do well.

From the above information, her nett score should be 9-2=7. She needs around 6 to get in. She needs to appeal.

ACJC is famed for its GP results and have been consistently among the top four performers. This jc also has a MOE based humanities programme and is better known for its arts courses.

She may opt for it and place Anderson jc as her 2nd choice. The latter is known for its science programme.

Last year's COP for ACJC science was 7.

Extracted from CNA


forging ahead is top Malay student Nadiah Nadhirah, who scored a distinction in Chinese, despite taking up the subject only in Secondary One.

She said: \"What we had to do was memorise all these Chinese characters and there were times when I felt like I wanted to quit Chinese. But motivation from my parents, my friends and my teachers enabled me to go all the way up to the O-Levels.\"


this is a role-model for all that say Chinese is too tough, especially for the Chinese race.

Equally impressive, is one Chinese boy from Bukit Panjang Govt high, whose mother tongue is \"Higher Malay\" with 9 A1s.
