NA?

ts is NT not NA

Ahm97sic SG

Sorry. It is NT.

Then it is even more difficult as NT ie Normal Technical as there is even a much bigger gap between NT and "O" level syllabus.

Those who tell you that with passion and determination you will be able to get an aggregate score of 8 points is just trying to make you feel good. It is just like you are running 100 metres race with a speed of 50 seconds and with passion and dtermination you can run the race in 8 seconds.

Giving encouragement is good but unrealistic encouragement could lead to unrealistic hope and disappointment in future.

yah i also think i must be realistic but i have a few fwens who took Os after their ITE and they did it becoz they r hard-working. so i might talk big but end up nvr study. since this is the way then i think psychology i put it aside first and concentrate on tourism.

Ahm97sic SG

Yes, there are many tourism courses in many educational institutions.

Choose one that interests you most. The course should come with job attachment too. As this provides you with hand-on experience, this will help you to get a job in the tourism industry much easier later.

It will be best if the institution can secure a job for you immediately after you graduate from the tourism course.

Wishing you all the best for your study and career. Cheers.
