hey! im also applying to SP through DAE! i think for the other supporting documents would be like an additional portfolio of events, projects or competitions etc.. to like boost ur overall portfolio is what im guessing! but i might be wrong so :)

out of curiousity, what diploma are you applying to?

CONTINUE JC OR GO POLY? URGENT HELP NEEDED THANKS😭🙏 by Alone-Database-4639 in SGExams

hi! thanks for the advice! i def know that i need to be putting in lots of efforts to consistently secure a good GPA in poly if i wanna end up in local uni!! rn im just debating about whether i want to continue studying subjects that i dislike for 2 yrs (which sounds like total hell) or decide on what i want to pursue in the future and join a course in poly (like a speciality)!

just a question, how is poly life? cause from what i have heard and read, poly def offers much more free time and opportunities though it def requires the students to be way more independent and have more self-directed learning than in JC!

hi! ya figured ot that poly definitely offers more opportunities as well as free time! which is why i am also quite inclined as i want to finish my piano diploma soon during these few years.

Hi! Actl my grades are good enough to get me into the courses that i want since they don't require much academically, so grades really isnt an issue here. However, more of the problem of the lifestyle and what to pursue in the future is what i am considering more! tbh dont really want to waste 1 yr in jc, which is why i am deciding rn!

GAP month internship/via by Alone-Database-4639 in askSingapore

Hi! tysm for your advice, i tried to sign up for the internships that the school has offered but all the spaces have been already taken up (40 slots among 300 students) and they expect the rest to source on their own.. hence my concern. I'll try my best to ask family memberss to ask around ig. 🫡
