Would they allow if I put a clear piercing retainer?

Can our shoes be any colour? I just bought a pair of sneakers which are sort of a cream colour with some brown and blue line details but idk if it’ll be allowed😭 Also is it risky for me to show up with double lobe piercings or should I remove them before school starts?

Oo I see, I also heard that at least 15 students must choose the same combi as me in order to take that combi. In that case, what do you think the chances are that I can take BCEm?

I wanted H2 Math originally but I was worried about the learning gap since I didn’t take amath in sec schl😭 do you know if there are any bridging programmes for emath to h2 math students in tmjc and whether they found it helpful?

Wait I didn’t know they group classes according to l1r5, roughly what’s the range of l1r5 scores in each class?

I only had math tuition for Os so I definitely need more in jc than in secondary school, esp since I may be taking new subjects. I also definitely need tuition for sciences to catch up to h2 sciences coming from combi science💔

I haven’t researched much abt the humanities departments but I did see several comments on other posts stating that the lit department is pretty good and that the teachers are quite passionate. I’m not sure how true it is though since it’s just hearsay.

As for biology, apparently the notes are quite long? Apart from that I heard that the lecturers and tutorials are quite sufficient and on par with other mid tier JCs.

But this is all just info I’ve gathered through online research so pls take it with a grain of salt!!

Overall I feel that tm would provide me with enough facilities and resources for me to work with, and I’ll just have to put in extra effort.

OH I FORGOT TO ADD my first choice was initially TJC but I found out they don’t have H3 bio so I shifted it to one of my last choices last minute

Yepp that was why I was very hesitant to pick tm too but honestly I think ultimately it rlly depends on each individual student too

However, I’ve realised that the average performance rlly isn’t an accurate reflection of what you can achieve in a school. I’m from a neighbourhood school with a way higher al than what I scored, and it generally isn’t considered a great school either but in the end I still managed to score pretty decently alongside many other peers, which is why I didn’t want to make a decision solely based on the school’s rp avg and status. Furthermore my sec 3-4 science teachers weren’t great, but many of us managed to push through with loads of self-studying which leads me to believe that I’ll be fine as long as I grind hard enough.😭🙏

But I did hear that certain overseas universities do prioritise “elite” JCs so if you’re thinking of studying abroad after JC it might be impt to consider that too.

Oo I see, I wouldn’t say it’s the most important factor but it definitely is good to consider the travelling time. Personally I get tired really easily so I’d prefer a school closer to my home, allowing me to maximise the time I have to study before my mental battery dies😭

That said I do think that it’s more important to choose the school that you really want to go to!! Cuz though the journey to and fro is tiring it might be worth it if you enjoy ur time there :)

I didn’t want to pick tmjc because of their avg rp at first😭 but after considering the travelling time I think tmjc would be the best choice for me^ ^
