798 SG

pls stop dreamin!

even u get into eng course n without dat interests n passion, 100% u will dabao as eng is very tough course.

tt3 SG

without O lvls how to go poly? Laughing

even if you can go, you will definitely suffer when in the course. i have friends whose COP for L1R4 is 25 and he went to SP to study Mechantronics which is not his interests and he dropped out 2 months later.

Agenda SG

wat u mean CMI? I took my o liao but I just wanna use this chance to quit sec sch while preparing for my o lvl this year

browniebaobao SG

Took O?

wana quit sch?

and prepare for O? Rolling Eyes

retake ar?

if ur results can go poly, y did u retake?

798 SG

my advise to u is dun quit until u see the result of ur olevel. there is no guarantee u can get in the place, in the end u might lead into no cert n no school to study.

most olevel students or alevel students do not want engineering course as their 1st choice, n i see many failed n dropped out before; but there are also many who built their interests n grow in love wif their course too.

Agenda SG

cause TP too many tried for IT and I didn't try for eng
NYP, I entered all the wrong courses cause I thought it was a joke Laughing

I have a cert liao, but now retaking as sch candidate but I wanna go to a poly so that I can convince my parents to let me leave that hellhole and during the time at poly, I will study for my O lvl

Ito_^ SG

i don't understand.

where do you want to go in the end?

Agenda SG

Okay, I'll break it down in parts

2005 NOV: TOOK O LVLS
2006 FEB: GOT 2005 O LVLS RESULTS
2006 MAR: WANTED TO SIGN UP FOR PRIVATE Os
2006 ARP: GOT REJECTED, TRIED FOR PRIVATE Os BUT REGISTRATIONS WERE CLOSED
2006 MAY: REPORTED BACK TO SEC SCH
2006 MAY TO 2006 AUG: SCH IS HELL, MISS MY OLD FRIENDS ETC

Current: Wants to apply for 2nd intake just so to get out of sec sch
2006 NOV: Takes 2006 O LVLS
2007 FEB: Gets results
2007 MAR: Apply for poly admission using DAE for different course

^tamago^ SG

are u already accepted into TP October Engineering Intake?

798 SG

u only have 2005 olevel to back u up for the poly intake for oct which chances might be slim.

if u dun do well for 2006 nov olevels, u cannot retake cos i dun think NS can tolerant anyone to retake o for 2nd time.

my advise is still continue to studying in school n do well for olevel.

Agenda SG

im only 17 this year, so i think can still defer 1 more year. either way i haven't been called up

and I intend to quit only if i get accepted into the poly

^tamago^ SG

remember ur nick during the JAE result leaking case.

if u wan to go in, pls make sure ur O's can make it.

just asking, which course is something u've always wanted to get into?

Ito_^ SG

oh i see.

den its very simple. tahan and strive hard in secondary school. its only a few months!

you have limited chances for ns deferment, the more times the more troublesome it gets, ive been there.

going to poly now is a complete waste of time, there isn't any difference in what you obtain in the end. going to poly might also distract you from your O lvls.

798 SG

as long as u r above 16, mindef can still call u if they find u have no letter of deferment.

for me, i think engineering course has more to offer comparing to IT in term of job prospect even though IT seem to be popular.

browniebaobao SG

Agenda, I think u really duno what u want.

u better wake up.

fudgester SG

I don't quite get it. You hate secondary school... so you want to escape it by taking your O Levels while taking your diploma course simultaneously? Laughing

Seriously... if you do get accepted into a poly... then what's the point of redoing your O Levels? Shouldn't you just focus on getting the diploma then?

The way I see it, you will get the worst of both worlds if you follow through with your plan. You will screw up BOTH your O Level resit AND your poly course. No way on earth can you do well in both of them simultaneously.

It's just a few more months, for goodness' sake. If you can't even handle a few months of secondary school, then I wonder how you're going to handle working life. Give up this plan of yours and focus on excelling your O Levels.
