      HCI A level subject combi grades criteria seems baffling to me. What if someone has A1 for both languages but the core subjects have B4 such that average is B3. How do they then choose their subject combi? Also why is this requirement imposed only from
      Feeder sch? How about JAE? They can choose any 4 H2?
      Reqt applies to both IP and JAE ...

      Students can choose Science, Art or hybrid combination ...

      Subjects available includes:-

      Biology
      Literature in English
      Chemistry
      Further Mathematics
      Chinese Language & Literature
      General Paper
      Computing
      Knowledge & Inquiry
      China Studies in Chinese
      Mathematics
      Economics
      Physics
      Geography
      Project Work
      History
      Translation (Chinese)
      English Language & Linguistics

      Am sure students can find subjects that they are good at from the list ...

      H2 Physics is 9749.

      You need min B3 in Physics to H2 Physics.
      H2 Physics must do with H2 Math. Therefore, also need min B3 in IM1 and IM2.

      hi php,

      IM1 is Integrated Maths (1) @IP4, equivalent to OP Additional Maths ,

      IM2 is Integrated Maths (2) @IP4, equivalent to OP Elementary Maths ?

      IM1 is equ to E Math, IM2 is equ to A Math

      Both HCI and NYGH (IP 4) took the same IM1 and IM2 papers

      For HCI boys going to JC1,
      their MSG has to be at least 2.5 to take 4 H2 subjects.

      In addition, students who wish to do a particular subject at H2 in college would need to score a minimum grade of B3 in that specific subject .

      HCI promotion criteria is available at:

      http://www.hci.edu.sg/admissions/high_school/assessment-promotion-criteria#assessment-and-promotion-criteria

      You just need a pass (min C6) in Biology to do H2 Biology ...

      However, H2 Biology must go with H2 Chemistry ... meaning you must get min B3 in Chemistry to choose H2 Biology & H2 Chemistry ...

      For HCI combination, die die must get min B3 for both Math and Chemistry in Year 4 so that have the flexibility in choosing the JC1 sub combi ...

      That is great, php !

      At least HCI allow students to continue pursue H2 Biology, not ask students to drop to H1 Biology just because pupil failed to achieve minimum B3, as long as IP4 student (pupil) scored minimum a C6 Bio, with Chemistry accompanying a minimum grade B3 or better.


      How about H2 Physics, subject code is 9749 ?
      also the same ?

      in that minimum need a C6 Physics @IP4, with (Chemistry minimum grade B3 or better + strong Additional Maths background minimum grade B3 or better), since H2 Physics usually go along with A Maths, go hand in hand together ?[/quote]H2 Physics is 9749.

      You need min B3 in Physics to H2 Physics.
      H2 Physics must do with H2 Math. Therefore, also need min B3 in IM1 and IM2.

      What happen then, if IP4 Hwa Chong students scored a \" B4 or C5 or C6\" academic grade (ie. below B3 grade), in Year 4 Biology ?

      got to drop Bio subject, totally cannot take H2 Biology anymore, or HCI still allowed students to take H1 Biology ?

      because if cannot take Bio anymore, means student left with no choice, got to take H2 Physics, if they are still opting for A-level Science stream. However, to be able to take H2 Physics at A-level in Hwa Chong, that would mean the student would also have taken Physics in Year 4 as well, and must have scored at least minimum a B3 in Physics @IP4

      If student totally never take Physics at IP4, not allowed to go up to A-level and let student take H2 Physics, without having grounding in IP4 Physics.
      Eg. Double Science students who took only Pure (Bio & Chemistry), at Upper Sec (3 and 4), but never take Physics

      Hwa Chong Junior College is Not the only JC that impose this minimum B3 and above grade, in order to study H2 pure Science, at A level. Eunoia Junior College, is also another one

      But some other JCs may not have this strict imposed rule

      Yes, MSG 3 is equivalent to B3 (65 - 69%) ...

      For NYGH promo IP4 to JC1, students must pass (min 50%) for both lang subjects (LA and HCL)
      AND achieve min MSG 3.0 for L2R5 (7 subjects) ...

      Thanks php. What about the criterion for taking 4H2 subjects in JC1? Is it still MSG 3 or more stringent?

      You got the answer already ...min MSG 2.5 to do 4H2 ... But important is to fulful the subject reqt so that u can choose your preferred subject comb at JC1 ....

      Bro, glad that my worry was over as u know that she entered via DSA CCA ... now she can go for any subject option she wants in HCI and we have narrowed down to either BCME or PCME ...

      [quote=mommyNg post_id=1943063 time=1571907648 user_id=2838]Not all IP schools consider anything below B4 (60%) as fail.

      A few IP schools I know would only consider anything less than 50 as fail (namely, RGS, NJC, ACSI, MGS; there is a small nuance on the overall aggregate point for promotion for ACIS & MGS, but generally each 6 relevant subject must have at least 50% and above).

      For HCI, sec 1 to sec2 promotion requires average MSG of 6 (50%). From sec 2 onwards, the average MSG has to be at least 3.0 for promotion to standard IP. MSG greater than 3.0 but less than 4.0 will be \"promoted\" to structured IP (gearing for O level), usually 1 to 2 classes in sec 3. For those with MSG greater than 4.0, students might be \"advanced\" to sec 3. I do not know the considerations for school discretionary advancement.

      For sec 3, regardless of standard or structured IP, the MSG criterion for promotion remains at 3.0. Students from structured IP take the same exam as standard IP, and will be promoted back to standard IP if their MSG is at least 3.0. There are re-exams scheduled at the end of November for those who do not meet 3.0 requirement. After the re-exam, some who do not meet the MSG requirement might still be advanced to sec 4 standard IP, others will join the sec 4 O level class.

      For sec 4, standard IP students still need to meet MSG 3.0 requirements for promotion to JC1. Some (not aware of the number) will repeat in sec 4 O level class, or take re-exam for consideration for promotion or advancement.

      Comparing with other IP schools promotion criteria, HCI seems to be the most stringent. I know RGS/RI only require GPA of 2.0 (50%) for promotion. Furthermore RGS GPA does not require all subjects to included.

      Sorry is MSG 3 equivalent to 65-69%? If what you posted is correct, then imho it’s more challenging as a promotion criterion.

      Btw RI’s one is GPA > 2.4 (not 2.0) which equates to 60% but not all examinable subjects will be included (a bit like L1R5).[/quote]Yes, MSG 3 is equivalent to B3 (65 - 69%) ...

      For NYGH promo IP4 to JC1, students must pass (min 50%) for both lang subjects (LA and HCL)
      AND achieve min MSG 3.0 for L2R5 (7 subjects) ...

      my dd recently received a confirmed offer to go to nygh. I was wondering where I could go to purchase the nygh uniform. I have been told that uniforms will be on sale during S1 registration but I am unsure if I am willing to wait in the queues if prior purchase is possible.

      Usually NYGH will also host a tea reception for the CCA DSA CO holders, I believe likely 30/8, so NYGH may start calling/emailing from today or tomorrow onwards to confirm attendence.
      NY Teachers’ Day dinner on 30 Aug ... unlikely to host tea reception on that day ...

      But should be likely to hear from them tomm onwards ... do have your mobile by your side at all time ... going to toilet inclusive ... lol ...

      Wishing everyone all the best ...
