      [quote=Imp75 post_id=1958706 time=1578882265 user_id=2358]Heard HCI imposed on its IP students MSG of 2.5 and below (ie average 67.5) to be able to take 4H2. Is this true whereas it's free for all for JAE students. Does RI impose similar requirements?

      RGS GPA need to be 3.2 in order to choose 4 H2.

      Not sure how it applied to JAE students. If anyone knows for JAE students for choosing subjects, please advise here. Thanks in advance.

      Ok.thanks GPA3.2 is above 65 so about the same as HCI. I am trying to make my gal.take 4H2 but I see no benefits if not applying for scholarship or coveted courses like med or law.[/quote]The majority of students taking A levels do 3 H2s. And that's all you really need to calculate your UAS. The one other benefit for taking 4 H2s even if you're not aiming for scholarships or med/law (aside from stretching yourself etc) is that you have an insurance in the 4th subject because you don't know which one you might do worse at during the exams. With 4 H2s, you drop the lowest scoring one to H1. With 3 H2s you must do well in those 3. Of course if you know clearly which subject is your weakest, and prefer to take 3 H2s, then just take the 4th one as an H1 from the start.

        H3 can’t be used to compute UAS.


        As mentioned, if you have it, you will have added advantage when applying for very competitive courses.

        Some scholarships even require H3 like A*Star.

            You can always take first, drop (one) later.
            However, you can’t take three first, and try to add (one) later.

            Other than the top, top scholarships, you don’t need 4H2 to apply for the rest. You can definitely get a PSC scholarship with 3H2.

              JCs usually allow 4H2 if your L1R5 is at a good standard, like L1R5 8 points raw.
