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.

He's a Malaysian scholar.

My nephew has nett score of 2 (6-2-2). He wants to try RIJC/HCI. How are his chances? He has 8A1s and 1A2 for HCL. Thanks!

Congrats!

This one is a shoot-in!

Thanks! Will let him know as he is keen to go there. I am concerned whether the RI/HCI and RGS/NYGH students that make up most of the student population in those JCs will welcome students from non affiliated sec schools. Anyone able to comment? Thanks in advance!

If my daughter got L1r5 17 as a raw score does she still have a good chance of going to cjc given that she is has 2 bonus pts as affiliated school plus another 2 points for cca making her score 13 at the end while cjc art stream being at 11pts?

Interesting to see how the top institutes have run away, but positions 9-13 seem to have maintained their COP for science, even compared to our time 20+ years ago (at least how I remembered it)

My dd has L1R5 of 3, so if she failed to get into the top 2JC, what is the criteria for appealing? She was a sch netball player ,cross country and piano grade 8. Do these help? Or any other criteria they are looking for?. Thanks

I am afraid not. Go to another jc that she is eligible. Alternatively, she may consider poly education.

Base on your input, her case must be 7-4=3. If she has a good HMT score place HCI as top choice if not, place RI as top. She may still stand a chance depending on the others competitiveness.

Her competitors in appeal cases are mainly from the following situation:

1. 9 A1s without HMT/ Good cca grade.- this group will get it as they are the nation's highest scorers.

2. 8A1s with 2-3 bonus points.

3. Other high scorers with talent in sports or arts.


Place your preferred choice as no 1 as neither jc entertains second choice.

How they seperate COP for Arts & Science seperately! I tot it was based on subject combination . I guess my question is when is student considered to have admitted as Arts student... if they drop science & maths , then considered as Arts students?

A science student has subject combination of 2-3 H2 math/science subjects. One cannot opt to transfer from art to science.
