Drop your H3 subjects if you are worried. The universities will only look at GP/PW 3H2 and 1H1. Everything else is merely extra. It doesn't help for local uni admissions at all. It only helps for overseas uni or scholarship applications. I suggest you concentrate on your primary subjects of GP, 3H2 ...

Lol. you can still decide not to send your child to a jc. Settle for a poly course. Don't like the system? Nobody is forcing you to play it.

From a local uni student's standpoint, a transfer is usually hard to get. Once you're in a course, its quite hard to transfer to another course. Even if you do get to, you will have to start back from year 1. Its quite difficult and it will be dependant on your current uni GPA and your A-levels. Of ...

Say, if you took 4H2 and scored AAAB vs a person who took 3H2 1H1 and scored AAAA. The 3H2 student would be at an advantage as co...

Actually, in my opinion, those 2 bonus points to affiliated JCs are pretty useless. JC itself is not the end point. So what if you got into a 'good' JC or a JC of your choice? Doesn't guarantee that your A-level will be good. You still have to work equally hard as those from neighbourhood JCs to get...
