I have just called HCI and the lady told me to try in Sept or by JAE.

What is JAE ?

Joint Admission Exercise = JAE (for JC & Poly)[/quote]That means must use 'O' level lor? But how to for IP students ?

[JieTing]

I called HCI again.


Different person said different things. Now another lady told me shd apply by DSA.

But ask me to check with Ms Karen Ng tomorrow as she is nt ard today. Sigh!

SJAB is ok...but I am not sure if they still allow for change of CCA since SJAB passing out parade will be on 15 July.

Yes they will most probably allow, if there is a valid reason for your DS to change CCA

The cutoff for those that take O level is already 3 points. It must be damn difficult to get in through DSA.

How many vacancies are allocated to JC DSA every year? How is the past record of acceptance cases? What are their criteria?

20% of their intake, which is about 50 places since they take in 200-250 O level students each year.

Hi parents,


My son is in Sec 3. During this June holidays, I wonder if your Sec 3 boys have been doing any Ace projects? I asked my son to make use of the school holidays to do his Term 3 Ace. But he said he can only start when school reopens as he is not in a position to do so now.

Can someone clarify the position. I have a sneaky feeling he is just brushing me off so he can play his computer games this hols...but I am worried once school starts, he will be too busy with school work, tests, cca etc.

Hi godiva,

I think next term compulsory ACE is English. Most of the time, teachers will assign work for English and Chinese ACE. So he is not \"wrong\" if he said he can't do now. He is probably waiting for teachers to assign them. But if he has chosen other subjects (which he shd have at least one other), then should be able to do this hol.

My DS has spent almost every weekday (half day) in school this holiday, working on his projects day project. Everyday working on experiments in the lab

Thank you lizawa,

My son has also spent some time on projects day project these hols, but not as busy as your DS.
