Here is an article of an ITE student who made it.

Ex-ITE student picked for Harvard internship

http://www.asiaone.com/News/Education/Story/A1Story20100614-221993.html

This student has the same story as yours. Never study properly during O.

Then found his interest in Science during ITE.

Then went on to SP with a good grade average.

People like these can do well and progress in life.

Excerpt from article "

The former St Patrick's Secondary School student scored a dismal O-level aggregate of 30 points and went on to study at ITE College East after being rejected by the three polytechnics he had applied to.

He had to contend with his mother, who objected to him enrolling in the ITE and wanted him to resit his O-level examinations. But it was at ITE, where he was enrolled in a biochemical technology course, that he found his calling in science research.

'In secondary school, I didn't put in effort in my studies because I didn't know why I was studying or what I was aiming for. But at ITE, I became interested in science research,' he said."

Retake your O Levels.

Make sure you do well in your English and Maths.

The rest you can just pass.

In Singapore poor results in English and Maths will haunt you when you are older.

Whereever you are, you are meant to be there.

You waste your time, thats where you will be. You use your time well, thats where you will be.

Why regret?

even I am not singaporean - I can tell your results is not good. Is really at the far end.

But all hope is not lost. Like the rest say - repeat your O levels.

Then go overseas.

I don't think there is much hope for you to study locally. You already pushed down by your bad results. Overseas would give you a fresh start.

Try it. YOu may like it.

Hmmm…..looking back….u’re indeed clever without having to study and scored As…but that was primary school, and u thought you could excel without effort for the rest of your schooling days ahead…..

from wat i see, u r better with numbers than language….and u would have done much better had you put in more efforts than relying on 10 year series….u need to shake off that bad attitude, stay away from bad influence (gangsterism??? haha…do they deserve to be garang in Singapore…u can kiss my foot)....

in singapore, u need at least a diploma to find a decent job with a pass in Eng/ Maths …and a degree at least to smell the management doorstep….whether pte/ local…u better get down fast to get done with it…before u go NS with at least A level or diploma….u r racing with time than the environment….in short, its you…

brudder….look at yourself now…..before u worry about the future without your good present self….

Hi ....retake your exam night class or private...MIDS (http://www.mdiscollege.edu.sg/gce-o-level-private-secondary-school.html)

Nothing is too late...you are still young...MIDS have both O & A Level course...work on it.

Once you are done with that, go into Army...there after go into Uni locally if poss or perhaps SMU, SIM or even MIDS etc...there is still an option.

You can also work at the sametime study...but need lots of hard work...

It is also good because you will understand more in depth.

Cheers !

Hi. I am a Higher Nitec student from biz administration. While i was studying, my ITE teachers told me that Higher Nitec qualification is higher than O level. When i went for interview as Admini Assistant, the interviewer asked me to take my O level. When I want to enroll into other private school or look for entry level job, I got rejected. ITE is a great place to study, they provides caring lectures, more useful modules, however the cert is not very recognized. So I decided to take O level and a part time local diploma.

You are looking for the wrong job with good qualifications.

My life is at the bottom now... Here is brief background

I was from normal primary school, Without studying I usually scored the top in the class and I scored 240 for my PSLE without even touching studies and I really believed I was genius.

I went into so called "top school" And My life untill sec3 was the same... Don't study, play whole time and score an A(At this point, I din't noticed most of people in the class scored an A). Everything was soo easy for Me. Once I hit sec3, everything changed. I took Amath and I totally had no idea what to do. People around Me who studied punctually can cope with class and have no problem with O level studies. I felt very inferior as it was My first time in life I failed my studies so miserably.

I Was arrogant and I Couldn't admit the fact that I'm not that smart. And I need some effort to make it in studies.

And Because of that, I stopped going school and got expelled. The next year, I moved to private and repeated sec3 because My previous school attendance wasn't enough..This is the part When I Started hanging out with those gangstar and really stopped going to school. But because that school wasn't strict. I got to progress to sec4. And that was last year. BUT even before O level, I constantly skipped class, didn't pay attention in class, didn't even flip my workbook even once. And My prelim's result was Str8 F9 with all subject beside english I which i got D7. At this point, I already stopped thinking that I'm smart and I just gave up everything with My life. I was really whilling to work after i finish my O. 2weeks before My O level, I realised I'm wasting My life and I needed to make a change. I went down to popular bookstore and bought ten years series for my math and science and started doing. Ofcourse I felt frustrated but I pushed my self to study hard for math and science.But I never touch my social study and PoA.

My O level grade was

English D7

EMath B3

Science Phys/CHem C6

Social Study E8

PoA C6

I know Compared with other people, My result is horrible. But I started from0 and I got to score B3 in Math and C6 in science with 2weeks. I regretted and cried.. Why I din't study earlier.. But it was already too late....Now I find some potential in my self again, but this time I really want to study hard and keep up my attendance.

But because of my result, I was placed in higher nitce course in bishan ITE. The environment there is horrible especially for my course. Everyone's saying like " ITe=Its to enjoy no need study" "who give fck bout GPA" And Make noises during lectures and I can't concentrate.

So I Want to change the school. Doesn't matter Private/Local as long as the environment is good to study. Problem here is I don't really know what i want to do in future. I just want to study.

My dad's income is around 130~150k per year so school fees should be affordable.

Any recommended place for me to go?

you are a genius.

i slogged so hard for psle and i get 202.

you are wasting your talent

Many locals brain are not flexible, forever PSLE< o level, A level, degree...then, all end up struggling and working hard to meet end, and at the end of their slave working life, they manage to make some money, but too late to spend it, end up, giving to son and daughter to spend lavishly.

Why must PSLE< O <A< U....cannot just start a business and see how it boom,
