hmm first off, which jc are you choosing to attend for your 1st
3 months? your 1st 3 months mean a lot to your year 1 life.. it's
like a kickoff, when you start slow, your momentum and pace suffers
for the rest of the year..
next, taking 3 h2s and 1 h1 or 4 h2s right? well to put it simply,
your options are not closed at all.. it doesnt mean you cant take
bio in jc when you didnt take it back in secondary school.. you CAN
in fact take biology at h2 standard.. in fact, h2 and h1 have
extremely little difference for the following subjects - chem bio
phy hist geog.. in h1 for the mentioned subjects, you study the
SAME stuff as h2 students, except that h2 students have around 20%
more chapters compared to the h1 syllabus..
looking at your plea for help with subject combinations, i guess
you have no goal for beyond jc? it's high time that you take a good
look at yourself and plan ahead.. what subjects are required for
you to take your desired module in university? do not think it
would be just like the o lvls, when your subject grades add up to
escort you to the college of your desires.. subjects count more in
the a levels.. think well..
h3 is another issue.. for starters, you can only take h3 in your
2nd year at college, however, it is NOT an advantage to your
certificate to have a h3 subject unless it's a good grade, which
would help with your scores for a levels.. students who do not take
h3 subjects share the same foothold as you when choosing university
modules, unless the h3 subject you have chosen has DIRECT relevance
to the module you have selected for university.. (e.g. h3 math
--> math module or h3 economics --> economics module) it is
not advised to pick a h3 subject, for travelling time and lesson
timetables will cause you to miss lessons and many other factors
would affect you.. it will be elaborated upon when you start school
next year..
have you only one choice of 3 h2s and 1 h1? try taking 4 h2s at j1
standard.. i feel this way as i can see your difficulty in picking
subjects.. having 4 h2s may help you understand better the hastened
pace of jc education and the density of topics covered that'll
prove rather different from secondary school.. you wont have much
chances to ask questions in jc so do take notes diligently..
i suggest that you pick the popular choice - Phy Chem Math Econs,
4h2s.. physics is pretty much the same as back in secondary
school.. if you find it too difficult, you can drop it to h1
standard or choose another subject combination after the 1st 3
months.. good luck next year alright? do mention which jc you have
been allocated to for the 1st three months.. pretty sure the
friendly ppl here who are in the same college as you would help
you.. =)
