Exemption should be up to JC level.

Vinegar: I've heard that some schools may ask a child to take an additional subject (another language) in lieu in sec school, but your son obviously hasn't. I don't know how it would affect his sec 2 streaming as that is internal to the school I think. Best to ask the school.

For students taking GCE O level (Non-IP track) :-


if a Sec 2 student has been exempted from Mother-tongue (Chinese), since Sec 1,
when come to end of Sec 2 streaming, will this student be restricted / confined to only taking certain subject combination(s), from Sec 3 onwards into Sec 4?

Eg.

suppose this Sec 2 student, exempted from Mother Tongue (Chinese), is keen to take Sec 3 & 4 pure (Physics, Chemistry) : is she still allowed to take this subject combination / or not allowed ?


because MOE eligibility criteria is
Mother Tongue is required, to gain admission into Junior College(s).

Ok thanks. I will ask the school. I hope someone who is in the same situation as me is able to share their experience.

daughter has been exempted from MT since P4…well, somehow MOE could compute her PSLE scores.

moving on, she is in NA and won’t be allowed to take A Math.

i told her to work very hard and not think of any subject combination.

Most schools will ask the students to take NA A maths and O level E maths together.
