Can anyone enlighten me on the art elective program. MTIA.

Hello!

I have just been accepted into the AEP program so here's some information on it.

Lessons are on either Tuesday or Thursday from 2-5pm.

AEP will not only teach art skills and techniques, but also history.

AEP students are encouraged to take Art at O levels at the end of their JH4 year.

AEP has a 2 year contract. You cannot drop out of it during the JH3/JH4 years you have signed on.

Students will be tested at the end of JH4 for eligibility to take Art at the A levels.

I hope this helps!

Thanks lebookworm. This is what exactly stated on the acceptance letter. Would like to know more about the workload in case if you know.

Any DC in NJC taking 3rd language ? I read that it will have a cut off of 2 marks in o level. Since NJC is a IP Sch , am I right that it is not important to opt for it ?
Pls advise me

Pls advise me[/quote]Grade for 3rd Language will be reflected on the progress report, and will affect the GPA. Quite a number of students will eventually drop their 3rd Language for various reasons such as not being able to cope (attend lessons but still can't understand), or simply because they joined for fun in the first place and don't wish for 3rd Language to pull down their GPA.

I'd recommend students to only take up 3rd Language if they are really interested and passionate about it. (Willing to commit and persevere through the more difficult basics part) Also do take note that secondary school is definitely more tedious than primary and will have more activities (and extra commitments) for the students, so the ability to cope and juggle all these stuff would be essential for those who wants to take up 3rd Lang.

Hope this helps :boogie:

Hi, I would just like to ask if NJC still accept students from other schools in SG in Yr 3.

Heard there's a 5% dropout rate in Yr 3 in NJC???

Yes, I'm sure they still do.

Not sure about the percentage but I know of the people who were requested to leave

Not an official intake (like 4-years IP). But i guess might have special cases? (Not sure though, just guessing )
For my year there's only scholars and returning Singaporeans who joined in Yr3.
