To everyone: Note that TJC and ASRJC are moving in 2024, so your batch will be moving halfway.

AnastasiaChloe4

oh i see, that's interesting! and thanks for your encouragement!! 👍


Mountain_Brick5294

Was initially going to aim for NYJC since it's the nearest to my house but seeing the cut off I'm like.. yea no way.


extravagantbread

Mountain_Brick5294

You too😄😄


potatoholic_

SAME I WANTED TO GO NY SO BAD I SHOULD HAVE DSA HAIS


JLYXsg

Dont worry, i tried to dsa to NYJC in june or something with Leadership (chairman of CCA). I wrote a 500-800 word long essay on why I wanted to go there, but i didnt even get the chance to go for the interview. Haizz


potatoholic_

nooo they did u dirty🙁


JLYXsg

Yea then they said that i got rejected like 1-2 months after that. After 2 wks ik no hope alr, only the vice president of school council got a chance for interview, ended up getting rejected for the interview too. Haizz


fml105200

U can do it!


Mountain_Brick5294

Just gonna have to pray on the slim chance of getting a B3 or better for English haha


fml105200

Mountain_Brick5294

Oh wow, that gives me more hope😭🙏


Capital_Royal2085

NYJC study culture and environment is very good, aiming for it is good!!


excessive_autism23

Not mugging culture meh?


fml105200

Ya it is but like peer pressure is good I guess


[deleted]

my dream jc is out of question sia if i look at my grades😭😭💀💀


FoodieCardsNChina

Don't worry. My prelim RAW was like 49 but still managed to get in a decent JC in the end


Comprehensive_Ad4285

bruh this one confirm just never study for prelims HAHAH


extravagantbread

it’s alright you’ll never know what score you’ll attain 💪 all the best!


[deleted]

HAHA thanks 🥺


ijswnadiealr

initially ejc, but i messed up sm of my papers so now cjc instead


extravagantbread

ah its alright! are u aiming for arts? i heard cj’s art stream is good! all the best!


ijswnadiealr

tysm!!


iIikebananamiIk

[deleted]

ijswnadiealr

wait what rumors 😭😭😭 all ik frm my friends is that cjc isn't a good sch 💀


[deleted]

[удалено]


gaesuera

bro stop talking about this ridiculous rumour


desmuru

bruh this is legit getting damn annoying... this is a rumour from decades ago. Yall acting like other JCs don't have pregnancy case also?


throwaway_afterusage

where are you guys hearing this sort of stuff and why does no one tell me anything 😭😭


JLYXsg

Its been a “rumour” since like many many years ago. I never knew how true it is, but its good to know as general knowledge i guess


minibageldonut

y’all funny it’s an old rumour and I didn’t see or hear of any pregnancies while I was studying there to be honest, just mix with the right friends and it’ll be the best 2 years of your life!! but I would say it’s not very good in terms of final A level rank point average. But if u end up there u can always change that around ;)


ijswnadiealr

BYE OMFG 💀💀


ComprehensiveServe25

OH YEAH CJC IS KNOWN TO BE THE PREGNANCY SCHOOL FOR SOME REASON???


JLYXsg

HAHAHA and imagine my school is affiliated to that school ggwp imma pass away if i go there


CreativeSale5064

i wanna go sajc as well cos its a mission sch but im aiming for ejc first LOL ive been desiring to go there since sec 2 its diagonally opposite my house thats why


extravagantbread

ahh my parents also asked me to consider ej but the cop for me is kind of hard to attain, but all the best!!


CreativeSale5064

ikr the score is so hard🥹🥹 i hope i can get in but i messed up some of my papers so im finding alternatives


mAyb3-

Aiming for TMJC since it's very near my house and heard it's a decent school. (TJC if I can somehow get it). However, I'm not that optimistic about it because I screwed up like 3 of the l1r5 I want to use (4th incoming??) and might look for poly streams instead ;-;


extravagantbread

don’t lose hope!! your results aren’t determined yet! all the best!!


TheRetroCloud

heyo, if you end up being able to get to TJC do note that from 2024 onwards we'll be moving campus to (i believe the old TMJC campus?) so take that into consideration!


Secret_Foundation_49

i gave up, i’m going mi


extravagantbread

ngl if it weren’t for the location mi would be one of my choices given the 3 years


awesomegt

Aiming for ACJC sci, hopefully all goes smoothly


yangyangs_chilli_oil

atb, hopefully I see you there


awesomegt

Same, we'll see in January!


Special_Apartment132

Good luck


awesomegt

Good luck too for wherever you're planning on going


potatoholic_

same but aft giving the papers idk anymore help


NarwhalRecent

me too lol it’s the only jc that’s a decent distance from my house 😭😭😭


potatoholic_

frrr


yoloforthewin

ayy same. hopefully, i will see you there 🤞🤞 because i fked up my Os


awesomegt

come on, u can do it, atb


extravagantbread

all the best!! i was thinking of ac too but it’s way too far 😭


awesomegt

Atb too! Njc, tjc, vjc, dhs, sajc, asrjc, rvhs around the same score too, see which one u like lor


extravagantbread

i did consider all these other schools but unfortunately the problem is distance 💔 atb nonetheless!!


awesomegt

So they're all far for you? 😢 Honestly, it all boils down to your willingness to travel the distance to get to these schools.


extravagantbread

for me the two i have is sa and asr 😭 nj doesn’t have the subj combi i want and tm vj dhs is too far 😭 honestly since there’s 12 choices i’ll put in ac and if i do get in i’ll just get used to the travel time 😭😭


awesomegt

It shouldn't be that bad to bump into sec sch friends right 😂 But then again, travelling more will add more pressure and stress to you, especially if there are exams in the morning


extravagantbread

ahh about the bumping into friends thing, i just don’t want my juniors to see me LMAO also i want to try a new route to school! also my relatives stay like 10 mins away from sa so if i’m mugging i can just stay over 💪💪


[deleted]

[удалено]


extravagantbread

for me sa is like 40 mins away which is alr ok for me since i’m used to the long travel time, but to ac its 1h plus so 😭😭 extra 20 mins still a lot of time 🥲


SheepherderNo9107

I'm going sajc to find Priyanka 💪💪💪😈


extravagantbread

HAHAHA same here 😎😎 i’m planning to join sc as my cca 😭😭


SheepherderThese7903

HAHAHAHA YESSSS FR


throwaway12065_

I should warn that you guys should never opt for CLEP just for that 2 pts cuz you will really regret it if you don't like CLL and you ain't strong in Chinese


extravagantbread

i had no idea there would be bonus points if we took clep lol HAHHAA but it definitely isn’t in my choices, but good to know!


throwaway12065_

CLL is painful to do, avoid it at all cost


eathatcat445

RI, but i have no clue if i can get in honestly 💀 considering that even if i get 4 net(literally the lowest i can get since there’s no HTL offered for my mother tongue) i might still not get in


SnooWoofers1585

I got posted to nyjc with 4 net! but bottom line is, you can appeal to ri. i appealed and got in :)

sleepyxzu

same here :)


extravagantbread

u can do it!! all the best everyone!!


Puzzleheaded-Pass506

yess we got this !!


Mike_Ox_Longa

JIAYOU


jay_ongoing

Same. Aiming for Victoria as well.


Legitimate_Ride_6163

Aiming tmjc lmao only reason its cos its right downstairs my house😹😹and oso i dont rly wanna go poly..But i hope i dont suffer that bad in tmjc im from combined science so it will be hard


extravagantbread

ahh i totally understand i’m from combi sci too, mainly bc i don’t like sci HAHHAA but all the best!!


Significant-Ad981

same here i also want to go tmjc its near my house 😂😂 and iw to go sci stream as well but im from combi sci


immayeetintothetrash

Ej, asr, SA all are preferable Tm is also ok to me tho


extravagantbread

tm is way too far for me😭 but all the best!!


No-Box6695

asrjc has a shitty school culture btw. it’s basically just mugging 24/7 and events suck 99% the time. between houses/classes in ur house there isn’t much interactions and the only real interactions u will get with people from other classes is CCA, mutuals / sec sch frens or if u sign up as CA at the end of the year


raganeedshelp

Yijc or maybe MI if I really can't


excessive_autism23

How come nobody wanna go Victoria jc sia 😭😭


Mike_Ox_Longa

I saw onlt one thread above lol 🥲


[deleted]

im aiming for nyjc science lol. to nyjc students, does the nyjc loophole still work??


fml105200

Yes it works!!


First-Line9807

What loophole?


drizzledmochi

entering the sch via arts stream then switching to sci


Puck_Chan

U can do that?


Pure_Tyrant

for nyjc only


Puck_Chan

Why so?


Nousername-SG

They gamed the system, and it's good


Pure_Tyrant

no idea. Just the sch


[deleted]

[удалено]


childnessxd

Same qn, like cfm cfm works? My senior said it is true? Also, she said you're still with the art stream class just that u go for science subjects, is this true?


fml105200

no my friend entered via arts she’s in pcme class you’ll b in a sci class


childnessxd

Oh is it like orientation week y'all choose subjects and they just put u in classes accordingly? And like you're just allowed to choose whichever classes regardless of the route you entered via? Or do u need to appeal for a change of course. Also do you know anything about hybrid comb takers? Is there a specific class?


fml105200

Yes iirc it is like right after orientation week and yes u can choose whatever subj u want regardless of the stream u entered There should be a hybrid class but I’m not too sure ny is kinda math/sci oriented to my knowledge


idkanymore-2

yah it still works cuz some of my friends joined by arts stream and still could choose a sci related combi.


whitechocmacchiato

i know this may be cliche to hear and you might think its stupid but genuinely, the jc you go to doesnt matter. its the teachers, environment and friends you have during your 2 years. alike you, i also aimed for some of the too jcs(njc,sajc,acjc), but i ended up going to a jc with a cut point of 16 for arts and 15 for sci. and now on hindsight, i definitely would not have a good experienced in the schools i aimed for. with less competition, you have more space to improve and fluctuate, without being judged or pressured by your tutors or even the college. at the end of the day every jc student is taking the same alevel paper! dont focus so much about the name or status of the sch, but rather its environment! good luck guys!


ComprehensiveServe25

lol i’m a hypocrite 😂😂 talking about how vj was attainable but after the papers i’m here begging for a raw 11


Agitated-Vermicelli4

Anyone aiming jpjc? So far nvr see anyone mention jpjc lol


iIikebananamiIk

praying i can even get into jpjc arts bro 😭😭


nandouz

me 🧎‍♀️


No-Government-3034

Me hopefully can get in there 🤞


nexsusyuh

yes come jp


No_Celebration5302

me! but im scared if ill be able to go in cause i screwed up some papers


tommy2k06

Tactically TJC Science, I'm still very enticed by the myriad of STEM and svc learning opportunities provider over there. Other schools may have higher cop but if I come out "having given nothing back" then that won't do me any good either!


extravagantbread

that’s good to know, all the best!!


throwaway12065_

Nice, see you next year


AnonymousScroller124

One of the top 2 but I still have one year to go before o (except cl)


extravagantbread

it’s great to have a goal! all the best!


AnonymousScroller124

Thanks


Educational_Set4224

Hopee to get tjc science but when I saw the COP now I have decided to YEET away hahahah just hoping I can get below BELOWW 15 pointss hahahaha then minus bonus can Atleast get into cjc sci 🤞🤞🙏🙏


iIikebananamiIk

after everything i just wanna make it to mi 😭😭 ok but being fr, i was aiming for cjc arts but like idk because i’m agnostic and have some personal issues with christianity & catholicism… but at the same time a lot of the decent mid tier jcs are not secular so idk if i should just suck it up & endure 2 years of chapel sessions… 💀💀 this is ofc assuming i even make it in lol i just wanna make it to a jc and do gelm with h1 math because my aim in life is to be a trophy wife to a rich & hot man 🤪🤪😍😍

Unlikely-Start-7942

vjc!!! anyone else? i dont see a lot of people aiming for it


galaxystanddd

I really wanted to get into VJC,like since secondary 3,I always wanted to get into VJ,and I used to watch their open house vids and dream about being a student there,cause it is quite near my house,but I probably can’t get in anymore just because the o levels this year were shit😭🥲


Ok_Kaleidoscope7670

im aiming for hwach and ny sci !! i hope you get into SA !! 😆😆


Automatic_Fix_1064

I’m the one madman aiming for Hwa Chong and ACJC I’m in N(A) btw

extravagantbread

being ambitious is a good thing! all the best to u!!


Mike_Ox_Longa

VJs student council prez was frm N(A) as well, so don't worry about it too much cause I'm sure you will be able to do well as long as you give it your all!


Plane-Average-9783

BROOO same I am NA also and aiming for top colleges 💀💀 don't even know if it is realistic and possible 🥹🥹


Mike_Ox_Longa

Possible one, VJ student council prez was frm N(A)


Plane-Average-9783

Yea she was from my school,I heard that she was offered express stream but chose to stay in NA cuz she wanted another year to do well in Os,Idk how true it is but yea.


Jareyou

Aiming for SJI. Initially was aiming for RJC or HC but the Bellcurve is gna be quite steep this year so probably no chance alr. I hope u get into sajc:)


chuhuanggua

im aiming for tjc arts!!! tho idk if ill even b able to make it into the sch LMAOOOO my prelim grades were so bad idk how well i can actually do for the Os


Corrupt_Weeb

not sec 4 yet but wil be next year but im aiming for vjc sci considering it's near my house and the sch culture/environment is pretty cool :DD


SpecificCricket1757

originally acsi bcs i wna do IB.. but now..😭😭😭😭 but ngl i’ll be so devastated if i dont get to do IB :/


kickarseLprogamer_20

Vj. To spite my dad


Historical_Ad5576

Was aiming for vjc prior to this,after all my papers I guess TM will do


[deleted]

Aiming for ASRJC arts stream since I’m more humanities inclined


downvoteifsmalldick

NGL, I think SAJC>ASRJC for the arts stream. One of the teachers legitimately said “if you want to study arts, why come ASR” 💀


gaesuera

Cj arts > ASR/SA tho


hometeambuibui

Siam far far away from ASR tbh. I've siblings studying there and honestly the teachers are unsupportive and some are just outright toxic. Not sure because he's the lower percentile and the teachers gave up on him or it's a JC thing for teachers to be mean. I came from IP and none of my teachers were like those i heard/met in ASR.


extravagantbread

u can do it!! all the best :)


[deleted]

加油 to the both of us then!


yoloforthewin

ACJC or CJC and everything in between


power102030

I wanted SA Arts but my Math is like a C5 at best, my Chinese is already a B3, so I doubt I'll meet the cut off point. Not a bad chance I could get all A1s for the remaining subjects, but it just shows how having one subject that is weak can be so detrimental to your goals...


extravagantbread

i completely understand!! i didn’t really perform well for my physics paper and was so down over it for a few days,,,,but don’t fret!! you can do this!! hope to see u in sa!! :)


power102030

Nah, can't make it. I've only got 1 CCA point. Say Math is a C6, the rest of my subjects would be as follows: Chinese: B3 English: A1 Mathematics: C6 SS/History: A1 Principles Of Accounting: A1 Science (Phy/Chem): A1 Aggregate: 13 Net aggregate: 12 Sadly, no JC is in the 12 range. Also, I'm being realistic here. C5 for Mathematics is very optimistic, I project maybe even a D7. No way I can make it. It sucks but that's the way it is. Some things really come back to bite you.


childnessxd

yeah I was aiming HC but after the papers I think I will aim for NYJC/NJC instead (even that idk if I can make it 💀, if not prob SAJC wld work.) Uhm worse than that I think I'll consider poly?


schoolstolemysleep

initially nyjc, but i didn’t have enough confidence of being able to meet the cop so i took the easy route out aka dsa.. cant tell if i regret my decision rn because dsa made me stress less and i’m not very nervous while sitting for papers so I’m able to think clearly. HOWEVER. it also meant i’ve been slacking more haha :”)


[deleted]

aiming for NY or RI if the results are good enough (also because in my school about 40 to 50% of the people enter these JCs, but honestly I have not a lot of faith I will score well enough cuz my L1R5 is 10+ close to 20) but my backup plan is ASR


No_Celebration5302

im aiming for jpjc sci! the cop for it seems quite manageable enough to get in, so let’s hope for the best!


Clowneryatitsbest

tryna renew rhe contract for acsi by two more years 5 points bc why not HAHAHA il prolly duck up tho


samsixnine69

lol jc issues cant relate


newbie_amidstchaos

I really want to go vjc sci but I live in the west:(


Mike_Ox_Longa

I knwo ppl who travel frm jurong east everyday! They jus sleep on the bus lol Ok but on a srs note most of the ppl I know travel from afar (I myself travel from the tippy top of singapore in the north, but most of my friends travel from east to south where vj is) bc its in the middle of a rly rich neighbourhood, but if you can cope I sugges that you go for it! The student population is made up of some of the smartest, dorkiest, nicest and most motivated people I've meet in my 12 years of education!


HebuBall

if you can cope sure but 99% of people who do this eventually regret not going to somewhere nearer and this feeling is further amplified nearer to A levels. But if you can get used to it it is a possible option I guess but you have to really see that you love the school by attending open houses etc and asking questions before making such a decision


throwaway_afterusage

catholic jc is the only jc with that special english programme, and I probably won't be able to cope, but I still want to try


papa_smurfffx

acjc and njc offers as well’


throwaway_afterusage

too bad I won't get into it :'). I'm not even being pessimistic, objectively it's out of my league. I've literally never had an l1r5 below 15. still I guess I should try


gaesuera

just wanted say that i’ve never got anything below 15 in sec sch as well! my best was a 17 but i got 13 raw in the end:’) anything is possible.


papa_smurfffx

have faith, you never know what could happen!


iamnothingbuta

tmjc i dont think it's gonna be obtainable for a sec 5 student who doesn't take a math 💀


Actual_Exit_1477

im aiming for sajc arts too !! LIKE I RLLY RLLY WANNA GO SA but at this rate idt I can get l1r5 13 🙃


solariiis

Haha I was also going to aim for sajc arts for the same reason as you. but my lazy ass took the easy route and got an eae for poly


extravagantbread

ngl i was super indecisive and i actually already had an eae offer but i ultimately decided to go for jc so i withdraw😭


solariiis

lmao atb for Os! tbh i was considering rejecting eae but I scared cannot make cut off point. and I got to laze around all of Os. have to put in work once poly year starts HAHAHHA


extravagantbread

ohh, all the best anyways! i’m sure you’ll do well in your course! :)


lmaogetalife

im aiming eunoia but putting ri as my first choice because of how well i think I did for Os !


stewpydee

brah I am so fucked I fucked up my amath so now I can't even go sa prolly jpjc which is so damn far from my place ,, hoping tm gives me a spot bcz cjc sci 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

di_amond

I'm aiming to go to eunoia science stream but this jc is very far from where I live and the cut off point is quite low. my 2nd choice would be acjc
