ESIS is tenable for independent schools only so between the 2 would be applicable for HCI and not NYJC

Hi Emoh,


Thanks for sharing , but my DD prefer to just go with A level , first choice HCI . What about chances to secure a place in HCI?

A common combination would be Bio, Chem, Math, Econs or in short BCME

How does BCME compares with BCMP? During my time, triple science is popular with doing medicine.

Now cannot do BCMP. Need 1 contrasting subject.

whether is BCME or BCMP (last time many years ago), makes no difference

because

neither Economics nor Physics, help in medicine at all.

Econs is applicable, if u enter business / finance career field.

Physics is applicable, if u enter Engineering field.

But mastery of Medicine Anatomy of human body or Surgery content, eg. Cardio-thoraxic surgery or brain surgery, don't need any Econs nor Physics back ground.


Anyway, BCMP is forbidden now because you need a \"Contrasting \" subject.

So,
even if your child is in Year 4 IP or O level track now doing Triple Science, eventually when reach level JC(1), end up can only do maximum two Pure Sciences (either Chem + Bio Or Chem + Physics ) at A level. Still \" forced \" to drop one Pure Science, in the end.

However, note that
our A level H2 Biology content also don't dwell into study of our human body system anymore. This was done only at the O level (6093) Biology Moe syllabus.


How about IB, a different curriculum from A level ?
Allow u to study Triple Science in IB, Year 5, at ACSI (IB) or SJI (IB) ?
