      Definitely useful at secondary school. Just need to pass HCL and can drop the subject at JC level. :imcool:

      Xiexie again jtoh. So now if one passes HCL during O level, then during JC don't need to do Chinese completely? If his friend didn't have O level HCL, the friend got to do Chinese as an extra subject? But the friend's extra Chinese subject useful for points to go uni?

      The more I ask, the more EVERYONE will know I m a stone age cavewoman...... :politebleah:

      During my time, things are much more simpler...... :snooze:

      It was a lot simpler during my time too. šŸ™‚ I was from the stone age too.

      To get into the local U you need to have passed CL.

                How come your stone age different fom my stone age huh?
                I remember that in my dinosaur time, the requirements were similar to now. Not much simpler leh. I didn't need to take CL as an AO subject in JC since I took HCL in O levels. My classmates who didn't take HCL in secondary school had to pass CL (as AO subject) to qualify for local universities.

                Just a note. NUS admissions now requires a minimum of D7 for HCL at O levels. So... don't need to pass?? :? C6 is still the passing grade right?

                Also, you can be admitted, on a provisional basis, even if you don't meet the MTL requirement, apparently. You just have to retake the MT paper at A levels before you can graduate.
                Take a look at:
                http://www.nus.edu.sg/oam/apply/local/admissionreq/BYA-admission.html

                Now that i think about it, i recall that some years back, there was an outcry about how 'unfair' it was to deny kids entry to local universities just because they failed MT. Think the bar has been lowered at that time. Anyone remembers this, or have I been hallucinating...

                    My dinosaur probably more ancient than yours. :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: Or maybe not. My time, if you score D7 you can still gain admission to NUS but will be subject to Chinese camp during the holidays.
