      DSA Phase 2 - PSLE results are out. Our DD managed to get through. Such a relief for her. I hope others have succeeded, too.

            What is the textbook standard?

            What age?
            And what are the topics they learn.
            The textbooks are highschool/college level textbooks from the US. Very well written and easy to understand.
            Topics learned vary a lot. here's a rough guide for you.

              NUS High School Diploma

              It is quite well recognized. All the major universities in UK/US recognise it. We have graduates already in havard, MIT, oxford, UCL, etc. All the local universities also recognize it. I think you can contact the school for a complete list of the universities that recognize our diploma.

                    Text Books and Reference Books from NUS High for sale


                    I have with me Chemistry, Biology and Physics Text and reference books used by students in NUS High students.

                    These books, when new, are usually about $50 each.
                    My students' parent like to buy these books to give her daughter whatever support she needs. As you know, NUSH students need a lot of on hand resources, hence he will go and talk to the teachers and buy whatever the teacher says are good reference books.

                    Just to share - the girl has since graduated with a near perfect score, and is now overseas on a scholarship. I think the books (and my coaching) helps a lot.

                    The parent has since pass the books to me to sell. (there are more).
                    You can have it for about $25 each. (if you take all- pricing can be adjusted) You can contact me at 96327168. Collection at Bishan area or Novena.
