RE: O-level or PFP
Hi,
I would like to ask is it risky to skip O-level to join PFP? (PFP means Poly foundation program ) My daughter is in NA the form teacher is pushing her student to join PFP in poly. Whereas second class of NA the form teacher is pushing their student to ITE. Those student are disheartened. They don’t encourage their student taking O-level.Only when you are top of the cream then you are encourage to take O-level.
Would like to ask in poly one course can fail how many times in PFP? I heard that if you fail one time you are out of Poly. Is it true? I talk to the principle she said if you aim for JC you go O-level. If you aim for Poly go PFP. but my husband said this is not a wise choice, cause he had seen a lot of student drop out from Poly. Drop out from Poly you go ITE. O-level is base and a must.
I look into the 5N syllabus, there are 6 more chapters in Emath, 9 more chapters in Chinese. 2 more huge chapters in core Geo, Chem didn’t have lot of lab practice in the last three yrs. There are quite a lot of chapters to cover. For English don’t really know how big is the gap. English is not my daughter strong subject. What i worried about is I can’t teach 5N syllabus. I can’t give her tuition also. I also worried about how she handle all her friends graduated, but she still in school. It is kind of sad and depress.
Last year the school pushed 40% of 4N student to PFP. If the PFP open door for my daughter if she didn’t go for it. I scared she will regret in the future.
My daughter and me are at the lost. She is not very smart, but welling to work hard. She is aiming to go to Design course in Poly. Can someone help please.
Thanks. -

RE: Express or Normal Academic
How to choose?my gal is in express/normal.
she scored 190.She wants to go to sister school, all her friends also going, but not enough points.If she choose other school she can go to express. Is it hard to promote from N level to o- level.I want my gal take O level not N level.
The sec school principle said that if you get 75% in the first six months in sec1 you can promote to express. is it hard get 75% in sec1?
It is really one nightmare to the other nightmare.
1)CHIJ katong Normal
2)Ping yi Express
3)Bedok North Express
4)Bedok Town Express
5)Bedok View Normal
6)Springfield Express
Bedok View is the nearest to home. Temasek Sec near our home but cop for normal is 196-199. anybody heard of Ping yi this school?
Can anybody advise?
