      other than that leh?

      Is the school particularly strong in M and S or humanities or any programmes?
      Reason why I am asking is b/c my gals are weak in CL so I have to choose the non SAP schools around the vicinity with no affiliation.
      They are rather strong in science/engineering research.

        Agree. Mine likes the nurturing environment, and the AEP programme (loving it!)

            Hello, does anybody know how people with weird combinations are put into classes? for example, are there a lot of people who take B/PCM but not take economics? Are people who take B/PCM but not econs in the same class?

            Hello! I can only answer you based on the IP classes, as I'm not too sure how the JAE students are sorted.

            For the current batch of IP SH2s, there are three PCME classes, two BCME classes, one arts class (ie taking two or more arts subjects), and the last two are the ones with hybrid combinations (PCML, BCMELL, PCMA etc). I'm hazarding a guess that this is similar for the JAE students, but their class ratio should be twice of the IP. Hope this helps!

                  any idea why the girls:boys ratio is so disproportionate?

                    any idea why the girls:boys ratio is so disproportionate?[/quote]Not exactly sure, but I suspect it is because NJ mainly takes in students by Psle results (only a very small number via DSA), and girls usually do better than boys in Psle, so end up more girls than boys?

                      Thanks, mommy Ng! Looks like no change from 4 yrs ago


                      Yup, girls perform better at this stage, hence the disproportionate ratio. Dunman High also has more girls, though not as bad, I heard

                        You are welcome zeedoo! Actually, I don't think the current ratio is \"bad\", hehe, I find the ratio quite ok šŸ˜‰
