verykiasu2010:moth:HiCan anyone tell me what good is the raffles diploma?If a student receive a RD w credit but did poorly in GCE A level, will local U still honor the RD and admit him/her based solely on the RD?Appreciates any reply. Thkslocal u's admission criteria is based on A level grades. RD not useableRD is based on consistent performance. it will be unusual for someone with a good RD to do badly in A level - may be like the olympics women badminton - purposely lose the gamemore likely that someone does not get a good RD, wake up last minute and chiong A level and still made it with good gradesa good RD is well received by good unis overseasThanks!That was really helpful. It will help in some way in choosing of secondary school for our DD.
