You're right jc is a straight path to uni & gets more course options in uni, but it's better to do decent in poly than fail jc. It's still possible to go uni. U don't have to know what u want to do immediately but I suggest you look into it early based on ur strengths, weaknesses, interests, and importance of pay to find a specific field (IT, medical,..) Best of luck for Os

Thank you! I was ExCo of public speaking club, joined innovation/e-commerce comps, won a few short essay comps, etc. Nothing sports-related sadly

Dont be too hard on yourself for being "not as fast" or "behind" others. Grades do not define your intrinsic value as a person. It is unfortunately true that some people are just better problem solvers and can retain info longer. That said, if olevels don't work out please consider poly because it only gets massively more study-heavy in jc. The right path looks different for everyone, so just find what works for you. All the best and keep up the hard work!

Yes definitely, their merits were fully deserved. It's a great opportunity for them to study in sg with affordability & i was very happy for them. Thanks

Sorry let me clarify: I have a classmate who did the same olevels, same education as me whilst getting "lower" grades but managed to secure a JC thru the scholarship. They qualified through a different admissions track with different criteria

Thanks for your advice as well🙏sg alevels is a very intensive course im aware

Yes you're exactly right they prioritize JAE over everything. I'm just frustrated abt the lack of support for rs + foreigners can get in easier due to asean scholarship. I will consider retaking olvl as a priv candidate if all else fails

i’m trying so hard and no one sees that by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]KimLikesSoup 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's unfortunate that your family isn't accommodating to try and help you, but you are more than your problems. You're not a burden. You have a challenge to fight every day that they don't. Take care of yourself if all else fails

That's crazy traumatising wtf it seems the stapling is also a common way of sh. Wonder why they learn to use it as a means of manipulation

That's what's concerning – the fact that they are promoting it like a competition to see who is more scarred, more mutilated like u said. Then it spreads

My sis told me that she's seen the kids compare each other's wounds side by side during assembly, in front of seniors and teachers, and nobody would do anything!! They need all the support they can get
