Is % or GPA more impt?

Is GPA used in Y4 to enter JC 1?
A level do we use GPA?
Been out of touch n getting confused when our times, things were so much simpler :yikes:

hi,
not every sec sch is using GPA as their grading system.
IP schools which use GPA grading systems, used it for promo criteria from 1 level to another.
in DHS, yes, GPA is used in y4 to yr 5 promotion, juz like other levels.
\"O\" level students will need their \"O\" level results for applications to JC.

Hi hi


I chanced upon this forum when I was googling for DHS related stuff. I graduated from dunman high in 1997.

Was just curious after reading the posts here.

On a discussion ground, may I know why are so many students and parents afraid of UG nowadays? In our days, UG was highly sought after.

And I must add that I truly enjoy my days in dhs. And it is true that dhs churned out students that are quite different from other schools. Respect, diligence, being humble, honest, disciplined. We are not the most vocal around, but we are often the people doing stuff, thinking stuff and making stuff happen.

Just being curious.
