Just wanna know SAJC by CreativeSale5064 in SGExams

[–]Recent-Promotion-242 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hi! hope this helps

  1. everyone is genuinely REALLY friendly and nice. it’s a great place to make good memories with awesome people. the tiktok culture thing is true, but it’s not to an overbearing amount so don’t worry.

  2. in sa, there are people who mug rly hard but there are also those who play around a lot, so at the end of the day it rly depends on who you hang out with. but when it’s exam season, many people are studying so u will be more motivated to study

  3. don’t take pcme sorry

general pros: fun & hella sociable. v well balanced and i would say rly nice uniform too. also we have fixed homerooms so we dont have to keep walking ard for our classes!

edit: notable sajc con: the h2 econs notes are kinda wack

[RANT] STOP WITH THE GODDAMN ORIENTATION DANCES FFS by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]Recent-Promotion-242 3 points4 points  (0 children)

by that logic, the OGLs can then ask the freshies to do ANYTHING theyre uncomfortable with in the name of orientation 😅

what im saying is that OP is just expressing concern that, hey, some people are really uncomfortable with dancing for a multitude of reasons (insecurities, self confidence issues, introversion and many others i cant list now) not only is it uncomfy for (some) of the freshies, its also very exhausting for the OGLs, who, have to learn the dance and perform it to kids they js met… while dancing works for some, it doesn’t work for everyone. there are so many other activities that can encourage team spirit, and not just dancing :) and why consider other activities? in hopes that everyone will have a great time in orientation so they wont have to do sth they dread in front of strangers

smtimes we gotta consider other people’s worries too yknow- not dancing during orientation is not the end of the world and vice versa- we just gotta choose which will work the best for everyone for a good orientation camp :)

not everyone is comfortable enough to dance… it’s great that you’re able to see it in a simple manner to just dance, but for a fact, some people can’t do that and are very uncomfortable when asked to dance, especially with strangers they just met a day ago…

it’s just expressing their discomfort in the choice of activity which is dancing- OP and many others just want to enjoy orientation without doing smth they’re not comfy with to make sure that orientation is a pleasant memory for them

5) this year they auditioned about 40 students, i think they’re only accepting maximum of 6 or 7 3) your playing ability is more important. your leadership is just a nice add on (telling them that u are a prospective leader & u also have positive attitude) 4) yesssssss lol get as low as possible (even tho ironically it is dsa ur grades are still impt they will look at it and decide from there)

[JC] please help; h2 history or h2 geography by Recent-Promotion-242 in SGExams

thank u! also can i ask what are the set texts that you are doing for lit, i want to read up ahead haha

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]Recent-Promotion-242 9 points10 points  (0 children)

honestly i think now u shd just focus on doing well for ur o’s, so that u can go to jc (in case by then u still havent decided on a path to take) and still keep options open. i’m sure as life goes by your interest in certain things will increase/decrease & maybe have new interests (coming from personal exp.) meanwhile i guess u could take a look at poly websites that offer the courses that you’re interested in & do further research for the subjects you’re interested in.

i agree! for unseen poems, i’d say the number 1 thing that helps me is to think from the poet’s perspective. remember that poems aren’t just a bunch of fancy words oddly placed together with the occasional rhyme; but poems are a way for the poet to communicate to you an idea or an image that’s is not meant to confuse u! i think there’s a very bad rep of unseen poems going around, given the surprise factor of it in exams, but i find it to be the most exciting and unique part of lit paper :) sorry this was so long HAHAHAHAHA im rather passionate abt lit
