If your result slip states that you are eligible for JC, then you can apply for JC or MI. However, do note that there is a condition

Check out the JAE 2014 booklet or this website if you don't have the booklet >>
http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/admissi ... e-info.pdf

Look under "Conditional Admission to Junior Colleges and Millennia Institute" (page 27)

I think is worth signing up for JC, and sit for O level English again at end of the year. If you get below C6, you can still transfer to MI or Poly (should you improve your grade to D7)

Alternatively, if you want to go Poly, you can call each poly and tell them about your situation and ask whether you can apply via Joint Polytechnic
Special Admissions Exercise (JPSAE) , which is for students with special talents and aptitude.

All the best.

The education option in Singapore is amazing...I learn another option to JC is MI where business stream is offered on top of Arts and Sciences.

Hi Elrek01, I also wish to know. It seems you are very strong in Maths and Science, except maybe English composition not "powerful" enough.

Since entry to JC only requires using one language to calculate the L1R5, by the score definitely can get in. But no one seemed to advise you that English GP is compulsory in JC??? How did you survive that? Any exemption?
