If your son is taking HCL, he will need to sit for O level CL in Sec 3. If he scores an A in CL during the O levels, he'll be allowed to sit for HCL at O level in Sec 4. If he passes this, he will get his 2 bonus points.Hi,
My ds is in Sec 2 this year and not taking HCL. But I would like him to take up HCL because of the 2 bonus points. Thus need some advices as I am still quite confuse between CL and HCL in secondary :
1) If he takes HCL in Sec 2, then he can take ‘O’ level CL in Sec 3 or ‘O’ level HCL in Sec 3 ? If he pass the paper, then does he need to take CL in Sec 4 ?
2) Is there CL and HCL papers in ‘O’ level or just 1 CL paper ?
3) Besides the 2 bonus points, what other benefits for taking HCL ?
Thank you. -

Thanks, jtoh.
Which means that if he doesn't get an 'A' in CL during the 'O' level at Sec 3, he will not be allowed to take the HCL 'O' level at Sec 4 ? In that case, will he need to take Chinese in Sec 4 and re-take the CL paper again in 'O' level in Sec 4 ?
Thank you. -

If your DS is interested in the Chinese language and has a strong foundation in it,I strongly suggest that he take up HCL.Because if he intends to go to a JC after his Olevels,he is only required to score D7 and above to be awarded 2 bonus points which is very important and helpful in the JAE posting of schools.Besides,if he's HCL grade is better than his english,provided that both his english and HCL is above C6,he can use his HCL to replace his english in his L1R5 to make his overall score lower.I've taken HCL in secondary school and I'm very glad that I've made a correct decision because I needed the extra 2 bonus point for entrance to a good JC besides my other 2 bonus points from my cca.And do remember,friends would not be forever with him,once he finishes his olevel,it's very hard to say that all his friends will still be with him.All the best!Hi everyone,
My DS was chosen to take up higher chinese in sec 2. We are in a dilemma as to take or not. Everybody will be in the same class in sec 2 but if he is to take up higher chinese, he'll hv to change class. He did not want to change class as he has made some good friends already. As parents, we of course will like him to take up the subject. Can anyone pls advise the advantage of taking higher chinese. Will he still hv the chance to take in sec 3 if he hv gd result in sec 2 again? Thank you. -

A pupil who passes both English and HMTL at the GCE ‘O’ Level Examination and who qualifies for admission to a Junior College (JC)/Millennia Institute (MI) will be given a concession of two points in his application to the JC/MI of his choice. Priority for admission to a JC/MI will be given to a pupil with English and HMTL who scores the same number of points as one with English and MTL.

My DD needs help in Chinese. Never have tuition in Sec 1 and 2. I think extra coaching will do her good. Anyone knows any good tutor or tuition centre in the AMK?

Are these choices in red correctly? ThanksWhile i was seaching for some info for secondary school chinese, I came upon this thread.
For the 综合填空 found in page 1 posted by 1 of of the forummer,
I would say this is somewhat the standard of my gal's Sec 1 HCL in DHS,
In fact, even come across some of my gal’s test papers tougher than this. (from the choices of words given, some din even see/or read before )
So for pupils who intends to take HCL in sec schools, advise to brush up your chinese proficency during this school holidays,
One really need to read widely, listens broadly from whatever available resources and practice extensively (hehe….easy said than done) 
just to add, for Q5, I would also choose 风雨同舟, seems more appropriate here, as the word followed is 伴侣
as for the word 志同道合 is used for friends/peers, not so approciate to use this word to describe 伴侣. (any chinese pro/teachers to enlighten us on this??)MintLeaf:
综合填空
人人都 Q1 (渴望 向往 期待 盼望)[/color]被理解，但理解在哪儿呢?它无形无色，抽象得不可 Q2 (捉摸 思议 理喻 分析)。然而，理解对于人生又那么重要。难怪人人都希望能被理解，人人都觉得自己被人理解得太少，感到生活中更多的是误解、曲解、费解，甚至是大惑不解。人世间之所以有很多 Q3 ( 利害 隔阂 分歧 迷惑)[/color]和矛盾，就是由于缺乏理解造成的啊!
理解尽管玄妙，但却也 Q4 (掺杂 混合 渗透 出现)在我们生活之中。音乐会上的掌声，雪天送来的炭火，对走路不便的老人的搀扶，献给失败者的鲜花，Q5 (志同道合 风雨同舟 一帆风顺 同心协力)[/color]的伴侣等等，还有很多，不知道你可曾留意过。
为了 Q6 (增加 增添 补充 弥补)孤父寡母自己无法替代的感情，子女主动为他们牵线搭桥，寻找伴侣; 自己虽然被打倒了，但却赢得对手的佩服，这比同伴的 Q7 (鼓掌 欢呼 赞美 喝彩)更令人激奋。有些人相处了一辈子，彼此仍不甚了解; 有些人只需要一道眼波，双方便 Q8 (心心相印 相濡以沫 同甘共苦 温故知新)。有些人宁可要一个聪明的敌人， 也不愿意要一个愚蠢的朋友。有一些人一 Q9 (片 副 颗 套)铁石心肠，却被一声问候叩开了泪的闸门。这些，不正是理解在起作用吗?
理解事物是困难的，理解人更困难。你得 Q10 (忍受 忍心 忍耐 残忍)，探求，斗争，甚至做出牺牲。 -

i think the rest all correct expect for Q4and 5
Q4 can be 渗透 also
Q5 could be 志同道合 since we are taking about 理解。
