Hi,


Need some advise...I'm going to register my dd to retake her A level and at the same time applying Uni courses. The subjects she going to retake are 3H2 + GP (even thou she did well for GP but I read somewhere GP must be the same sitting). My question is, can she opt out H1. Can she use her last yr H1 and PW + this yr H2 and GP to apply for 2017 Uni?

Appreciate your advise.
Thks.

Hi, yes. You are right. GP and 3H2 must be taken at same exam. PW, H1 and MT can use this year result. I think no need to repeat science practical too. Please double check this.
If she wants to repeat, make sure she is confident of doing better. If she put in all her effort and determination to do much better this year, I'm sure she will succeed. I also heard SEAB allow students to withdraw from the retake if can secure a uni place. All the best.

Hi starlight1968sg,

Ya, will still apply but chances of getting in is very slim.

Hi Havok_ex,

She is from Sci stream. I told her to consider other courses but she doesn't want to spend 3 or 4 yrs to study a course she is not interested in. She prefer local U, so other option will be retake H2 and GP.

Hi, please read another thread, \"A level result help\". You can get some useful advice there. All the best.

Hi, this link is more powerful tks to the kind soul. It has a link to rank all the courses in nus/ntu/smu according to the 10th percentile of UAS of students admitted. Extremely useful guide.

Still can apply but must be in full employment at time of application. Do check their website for detailed requirement if interested. All the best.

I heard SIM have two different university, is it both I can't enter?

And for private candidate I really don't think I am able to absorb under such condition cause army like don't have much time to study and after training must be tired T.T

Yes, SIM has UniSIM which the full time undergrad programme is funded by gov. The other is SIM global education which has tied up with oversea uni such as UOL, RMIT, etc. For SIMGE, yes, quite likely u can apply for one of the courses as long as you have 2 or 3 H2. If u don't wish to retake A, you can consider SIMGE. But u can only apply only on the year u ORD, u can't apply now. They don't reserve places.

I forgot to mention that unisim also has many part time degree courses too. Once u ORD, u are considered as having fulfil 2 yr work experience, so can apply. U can work and study part time. So as I say, there are still many alternatives. Don't lose hope.

[quote=\"Elrek01\"]I've browsed the UniSim website and found something interesting but i am still pretty unsure about it. The tuition fees of UniSim is not by year but is by degree programme. The \"all basic degree'' is roughly $33876 SGD per degree programme, thats like $11292 SGD a year(if take a 3 years programme) , which is similar to the annual fees of SMU. But here comes my doubt, if one spent 3 years in local uni such as NTU and SUTD all those, how many degree will the student get?
If its also 1 degree, then i think ill give UniSim a shot cause what i worried about study private u is the cost. QAQ

The undergraduates in the local uni usually get ONE degree unless they are admitted into a double degrees program which usually takes 4 years or more.

Thanks! I will apply for it tomorrow and hopefully one of the uni will accept me T.T[/quote]Sorry if I seem to pour cold water on you. I went to unisim open house and they told me at least Cs in your H2 to be considered. My suggestion is for you to retake your A as a private candidate. Whatever, don't give up hope. There are still many paths to success, not necessary only through going to local uni.
