      Somebody over at the NYJC thread was claiming that taking 1 Science subject could be done under their Science stream. Or maybe I read it wrongly.

          I think most schools classify the one science class (plus Math and two Arts subjects) as \"Science\" stream. Functionally, I'm not sure that it really matters, but all of the JCs should treat it the same way since the Science/Arts COPs are usually different.

            yes. once you read one H2 Science, it is considered Science stream.

              That's true, and in my view, a reflection of the view that \"science\" stream is more popular than \"arts\" stream! That way, more students can claim they got into the science stream. Combinations with just 1 science are colloquially termed \"hybrid\", but there is no such formal classification. The exception is the 2 maths + 1 science combination - that is clearly \"science\"!

                Probably ~ one year ago. The discussion about hybrid combinations. Maybe check at NYJC open house to be sure.

                    I assumed it was done this way to better control entry into the Arts stream. The hybrid students could outnumber the true Arts students? In which case fewer Arts students would enter (given COP differentials), and some of these Arts classes / programmes could be hard to keep going.

                    Of course, you could increase the spaces for Arts stream but there would still be variability between Hybrid and true Arts year to year.

                      Hello! There are good examples of possible subject combinations on many jcs' websites, which are pretty useful to just get a rough idea I find. Take a look!!
