Wonder why there is so little feedback on this school.


Rumour mill has it that students behaviour outside school is of concern. Is this so? can anyone elaborate.

Planning to admit DD here.

Hi,


Just want to check, will they allow a H2 Chem, H2 Econ, H2 Lit and H1 Math hybrid combination be accepted? Any views anyone. Thanks.

PSLE Results for this year to be released on 24th November at 11am.


Secondary Schools S1 submissions Nov. 24 to Nov. 30.

S1 results date 21 December. Registration 22 December 2017

Does Anyone have any feedback or review of St. Andrew’s Secondary, Holy Innocents Secondary, Edgefield Secondary and Greendale Secondary.


Just trying to shortlist, but anxious about the environment of these schools as my DS is a bit of a timid child.

Tks all.

Anyone know when will parents receive the booklet on \"Choosing your Secondary Schools for admission to Secondary One in 2018\"?

Is there an online version?

TIA.

Booklet has just been distributed. I think all schools will have received it at the same time.

Does anyone have any feedback on Bowen Secondary School? How is the environment there? I am more interested in the school environment than their academics.


TIA.

She wants to choose a different career path from the one her present subjects offer. She always did have an aptitude for Biology but did not make the selection when she should have. Now she wants to do it in JC.

Some universities offer bridging programmes. There aren't that many courses in the local unis that require Biology specifically. Even Medicine doesn't require one to have done Biology.

Thank you for that info. Good to know that Medicine doesn't require Biology. Glad I posted on this site. I've been feeling quite anxious not being able to get adequate information on this. Really helpful.

Schootopia:

I'm not aware of any bridging programme for Bio in local JC.


Biology at JC level is ~ 1.5 years. It builds on 2 years of lower secondary science, and 2 years of upper secondary biology. If a student did not make the cut for Bio in secondary 3, you will not survive an even larger gap in JC.

Some universities have foundation courses for students without the necessary academic background.

Thank you for the feedback. It was very useful. I hope she will rethink her decision and get some counselling before she makes her choices.

Hi,


My DD wishes to take up Biology in JC although she has not taken it in Secondary. Is it possible for her to do so?

I was given to understand that there is a possibility of Bridging programmes in such cases. Is this true?

Kindly advice as I am anxious about whether it is really possible or not. She has done Physics and Chemistry in Secondary not Biology.

Am at a loss about coaching secondary. Does anyone have any advice, suggestion as to how we can help with secondary, or is tuition the only way.


Is there any particular method of preparing for all subjects?

Thanks.
