Thank you very much slmkhoo and CMF for the answers.

Hi, can the kids use their relative’s CPF to pay their tuition fee if their parents don’t have enough money in CPF? Thanks

Hi,


A few questions to ask.

1. For boys, do they apply scholarship during their J2 or during their NS before going to university?

2. Can they apply more than one scholarship at the same time?

3. Can they apply another scholarship if they have not been accepted by any sector since they have 2 yrs NS before entering university?

3. Do they apply university after receiving A level result / during their time in NS?

Thanks

at the end of IP4,

for Promotional streaming year-end exam into Hwa Chong JC1 subject combination,

do IP4 students
from both ( Hwa Chong & Nanyang Girls High), take the same common identical (mid-year and year-end) exam papers for these few core-tested subjects

1) Integrated Maths,

2) Physics / Chem / Bio,

3) History / Geography,

4) English language &

5) gao-hua (HCL),

so that
there is a common basis yard-stick of measurement for them,
to stream-line (sort out) all these IP4 students into various different JC1 subject combination,
which is dependent upon their IP4 year-end Promotional results performance ?



Example

say, an IP4 student gotten a \"C5\" or \"C6\" grade in Physics,

from either (Hwa Chong or NYGH),

and therefore decided to drop Physics,

since pupil is poor in Physics, no confidence to continue study A-level Physics anymore,

so intend to switch over to Biology in JC1, despite never taken Bio before in the earlier Years (IP3 nor IP4),
is this allowed by your JC1 Bio (Head-of-department) ?


Is there any internal bridging course in JC1, either bridging for (H1 or H2 Biology),
for students who have never done Bio before in (IP3 & 4 ) ?

If Yes,
how do they bridge this Bio course, and
take how long to bridge ?

They don't take common exam paper. For HCI , all the examable subjects which you study in Sec 3 and 4 will be included in to the MSG including Project work ( but this year only those who got A1 and A2 for Project work will be added in)
For NYGH, their MSG is calculated using L2R5.

For my son, he don't really like bio so he never take bio for this Sec 3 and 4. If he studied bio, it will be the 10th subject for him ( he took German when he was in Sec 3) which will be included in the MSG no matter it is good or not. Not like in NYGH, only include 5 best subjects into MSG . And I was told that in JC , student can only take 2 sci subjects. I confirm that my son won't study bio in JC so l agreed with him not to take bio as he will need extra time for this subject. He was in STMP therefore I am afraid that he would be too busy. However, if your son is interested in bio. He should be able to cope with it.

Hi,


I think B4 is exempted. Yes, some students will need to take standard Chinese in Y3 and HCL when they are in Y4.

I just heard one parent told me that both school HCL and O level HCL result must be at least B4 in order to drop HCL in JC. The school standard might be much higher than O level. Even though my son told me that his chi teacher said their standard are low.

Hi 12mum,


Thanks for your reply! One of the parents told me the school result will be considered too. So I am confused.

Hi parents,


Do the school take the school chinese result or O level chinese result in order for the students to drop chinese in JC? Thanks

Thanks for the reply. Very clear and detail. However , is there 2 math ( like in secondary A and E math)

Hi, thanks for your reply. May I know what is contrasting subject? Thanks
