When choosing subject combination at end sec2/yr2, parents/students need to consider their aptitude and interest. There’s no need to be sure of one’s career choice at such a relatively young age because situation always changes.


The following subjects provide the versatility and flexibility in pursuing 95% of all uni courses:

English
MT/HMT
E Math
A Math
Physic
Chemistry
Combine humanities
A pure humanities subject

8-subject combination is recommended for high ability students who aspire to do well in their respective ccas. Triple science is only applicable to top students.

Many HCI/RI science students opt for business courses each year at unis.

Thank you Innovate. I guess we are down to a decision whether combined science or Phy/Chem. If combined science , the humanity subjects need to choose very carefully... one that interests

Yes, I am of the opinion that at that juncture, it should really be aptitude and interest. No point planning so far ahead to what career the child wants to do in the future, bc if he/she takes subjects that he cannot fully excel in, then what's the point?

More important to just focus on what he/she is best at.

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!

Congrats!
Which secondary school is your nephew from?

Someone told me that he had "o" point. Is it possible ?


That means 6 points minus 2 points for CCA, 2 points for Higher Chinese and 2 points for affiliation ?

I believe you can only deduct maximum 4 bonus points. So even if you have 2 bonus points for CCA, 2 for HCL, 2 for affiliation, your aggregate is still 2. Can only deduct max 4 points.

'if you really want to know, check the moe website on JAE and bonus points.

Is it very hard to appeal to cjc if my daughter got 13points after deducting 4 bonus points?

Is certainly is. Normally appeal cases are those whose nett scores just meet its cop-partial or those who have something to offer ie sports/arts talents.

Chose the next one near your home.

hi everyone i need some advice, hope u guys could help me


uhm i've got a raw score of 7 and 3 bonus points, so after minusing it would be 4 points. Should i put VJC as 1st choice? It is a little far.. about 1hour and 20mins from my home (I tried haha) and the cutoff is exactly 4 as well do i even stand a chance in getting into VJC? or should i just try for another school?

thanks :D!
