Not sure Mean or Median is a better gauge of standard of JCs; as info can guide parents and students’ choices.


Some JCs have Median 84, 85, 86 etc etc


Median 85 means Half of the JC scored 85 points and above. The upper half.

Median 86 means Half of the JC scored 86 points and above. The upper half.

Mean 85 is the Total score of all the students divided by the total number of students; the mean or average score is 85.

For Median of 85 or 86, if the student is in the Top 50% it is good. For Mean of 85, some students could be scoring very high and some not as high resulting in an average score of 85.

I have a question really just out of curiousity. DHS accepts mostly IP students from year 1, only accept O level students from year 5. What could be the possible reasons that its mean and median are lower than EJC, VJC? And also NYJC which doesnt have IP students?

DHS accepts only IP students from year 1 and O level students from year 5.

The answer to your question is a mathematical / statistical one - its small population base compared to the others. A single student in DHS is worth a lot more in terms of ppt than a student in the other bigger colleges.
To illustrate: 1 out of 20 is 5%, 1 out of 50 is 2% and 1 out of 100 is 1%. The “1” can be represented in many ways. Due to the above, you will also probably see huge YOY swings for schools with smaller population like DHS, RVHS, etc.

The DHS figure includes the JH or Sec 1-4 students. At the JC2 Level in 2020 (A Levels) DHS had 438 students (IP + JAE) and RVHS had 435 students (345 IP + 90 JAE). Based on the recent Sec 1 intakes, I believe each year of JC cohort of both schools will be about 400 students (~300 IP + ~100 JAE) in the future. Hence, the comparable JC figure for DHS and RVHS is around 800 to 875 students.
