        ksi,


        if the objective of the poll is to understand the representation of the views better, then it should include options of the A levels and O levels otherwise the poll smells kind of 'elite' to me with the poll question of \"Are you a parent with a diploma or bachelor degree or higher?\"
        So sorry insider...my poll was a suspect that most of the parents are tertiary education, that was why I put those levels. However, I agree we should perhaps put 'A' and 'O' levels in but I need help from Chief because once I change, I will lose all the existing poll results. Chief, can help? Thanks in advance.[/quote]

        Sorry... even admin also cannot gerrymander poll questions without requiring a reset of the polls... only fair lah. I think the polls is ok: there's that None of the Above thing.

              i was home-schooled lah.......so \"none of the above??\" ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜‰


              Home schooled also must take PSLE so we should create a PSLE category. ๐Ÿ˜„

              i think during my time, home-schooled no need to take any exams (noone bothered)..... :imcool:

                  Sorry, it was not meant to be elitist, it started with a hypothesis that I suspected majority were tertiary educated so I was polling to establish the hypothesis. Hope everyone can understand this. If I offend anyone, I apologise in advance.

                    Wow, we are a learned batch, arenโ€™t we. So many grads & post-grads.


                    Btw, I know that 2 of our valued forummers havenโ€™t polled cos I didnโ€™t see the PhD counter moved.

                    Lastly, sad to say but this poll shows that we canโ€™t represent the full spectrum of society, as far as educational issues are concerned. We are very skewed as a sampling group.

                      Ya, with so many Masters and Bachelors around, we stil find it hard :imdrowning: to understand and teach primary school level now :faint: . Most probably \"over-qualitified\" :scratchhead: :?
