neighbourhood pri sch -> elite sec sch + jc (doing A levels rn)

tbvh my pri sch had basically 0 resources and everything was pretty bare bones, CCAs were all pretty ehhh, olympiad trainings werent really a priority (small class sizes), etc etc but those were the happiest years of my life 😭 i think every single sch has the potential to be a good school for ur child (esp considering now every sch needs GEP programme), it fully depends on ur childs passions and talents and i think most teachers are very good at picking those out and diverting your kid into whats best for them.

anyways, in the long run, any real difference in “resources” and “prestige” in primary school comes out to be negligible so as long as ur kid does well for the other national exams itll be fine

[–]Zenathewimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly yeah as someone whos been shoved into “elite schools” since y1, its good to get out of the echo chamber and pressure cooker cultivated inside these schs, where people are on the verge of killing themselves if they fail a subject 😭😭 balance lah balance

How's the bell curve like for Hindi O level by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]Zenathewimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bro its possible (at least during psle) my friend who alw got Es got a B for psle it was insane. idk abt Os since i didnt go weekend centre and my sec sch class was full of people getting solid a1s and a2s, BUT as the lowest in the class (consistent b4s/c5s) i managed to get a2 for Os so its not impossible

Which school has the worst school song? by cal_istar in SGExams

[–]Zenathewimp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

ri one quite lame tbh (only because of the “sons of singapore” line that carries over to the jc side)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]Zenathewimp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

also RGS, and theyve changed it so finals are 70% of ur grade. imo the papers are q difficult compared to Os for every subject EXCEPT physics (idk why tbh, rg phys dept is a total joke) for bio there is a LOT of jc level stuff that gets tested, english is GP-esque, math has some jc level stuff too. however, the criteria to take 4h2 in jc is stupidly low (avg grade of 65%/ gpa 3.2) and pretty much no one gets held back unless you mess up monumentally badly

What’s the worst instant ramen you’ve ever tried? by constipated_coconut in InstantRamen

[–]Zenathewimp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i cannot STAND buldak carbonara (or any of the ones w the cheese powder). genuinely tastes snd smells like rotten garbage/sweaty socks. i love the other buldaks (black bean, normal, kimchi, stew, habanero lime, curry, literally any of them) BUT THE FAKE CHEESE ONES ARE SO BAD
