Hi StarPuppy,

two questions:-
1) do you know what you want?

2) do you know what you good at?

why the two questions?

1) do you know what you interested in? do you really want to get in a poly just to get into a poly and learnt a course that you are uninterested in and most likely not to pursue as a career? if so, then don't waste your time.

2) what you good @? maths? hands-on? what is the best time you can learn?
when you working to music? or when you using PC?
you need to identify and get into what you can do.

Currently, you are going to enter a ITE if you want to study.
Trust me, you may find it your cup of tea cause I believe ITE has more hands-on than Os and it may suit you better.

If you do well, your path to Poly and even NTU is there for you.

Else, you will know that this is not the right path (studying), perhaps you can look to others like Shatec (hotel, cooking), mechanics (car) or the SAF.

I believe God brought you to this world for a reason, and since you there, there is much you can contribute. Maybe, just a different path. So find your path and the sky's the limits.

All the best..

bye.

StarPuppy SG

hopy SG

hiphop2009 SG

i do hav a suggestion here:

if u felt dat u didnt work hard enough n u flunk the exam becoz of laziness and procrastination, den i tink u shld try to take ur O level again, and this time round, do a good job and score well.......

if not, den go ITE or wadever course dat is available to u....but tink abt it, are those courses dat u reallie wanna take?...u mentioned abt taking design courses...yeah.........

and for M.I, i tink if u cant cope with stress, den the best ish dun go n take A level.....though MI is three years, however, the A level syllabus is such dat it requires lots of study and hardwork.........

juz my two cents worth of view Smile

shinta SG

cannot wor...

last time when i tried retaking, they say its 2 consecutive years

so 2004, 2005 n 2006 they'd take either 2004 n 2005 results or 2005 n 2006 results

Nurofen SG

No use askin for consolation if u pay no heed to them

Justice87 SG

U r not alone, my l1r4 36 hor hahaha ... Crying or Very sad

Anyway wish to ask if the result can be combined if i were to retake 2nd time on year 2007. 1st time at 2005, retaking eng maths and sci at 2007. The 2005 chinese and humanties keep.

Is this possible? Confused

Lambo SG

thought of taking private diploma? actually its recognised but not to the extent like poly dips. at the end of the day ur also gonna get a degree (if u intend to pursue 1) at some overseas universities that is recognised by the MOE. back to square n save time Cool

Starpuppy I know how you feel I was in the situation last year. While all my friends got 14 and 15 points, I got a D7 for my English and ended up with 22 points. I was so sad. I now only could get into all the lousy courses. But i had worked so hard for my emaths and gotten from an F9 student (i was the worst student in my class) to a B3 for my o levels and I did not want all my efforts to go a waste just because of my stupid English. So I decided to retake even though my parents did not want me to. Besides English I had to retake another subject. It was either biology or combine humanities (I got C6 for both this subjects) but I hated this two subjects to the core and I knew I was not going to do well if I retook them. So I did some research and found out that most students found the subject Principles of Accounts a very easy subject and could score high grades (I also wanted to get into the accounting course really badly) so I went under the odds and took this two subjects. Many people thought I had got mad for taking a whole new subject which needed 2 years of study and now I got only about 7 months to study. But I did not give up I asked my mother to arrange for me private home tuitions for both the subject (it caused her $400 per month but my mother said she would not mine as long as I study) so I stay at home and studied unlike in school I now had plenty of time to study .I studied in from 8am to 4pm (when no what was at home) then I played.
I did the TYS and asked help from my cousin and make sure I knew everything there was to know about POA.

And now
English D7 to B3
POA B3 (with just seven months of study)
From 22 point I got 15 points
From being rejected from the accounting course I am now probably going to be the first few whos going to get in).

My advice is repeat the subjects you fail as private candidate. I retook maths and science and art (additional sub since i too free) + i still had spare time to work part time. Now my L1R4 good enough to get into business course in TP and i'm awaiting my posting letter Smile plus i got loads of cash to spend from all my part-timing.

I had the choice to do higher nitec and several poly courses but i chose to repeat cos i don't want my Os cert to look like crap. Btw i've only failed maths for my 2004 Os. Now happily looking forward to poly term start in april.

Texcoco II SG

Nosense..who tell u must be 2 consecutive years?

MOE says that poly can only accept 2 sittings, they nvr say consecutive sittings. If u dun believe, i am living example here. I combined my 2003 sec 5 O level result with 2005 one. I access JAE and choose a selection to combine 2005 with 2003 result lor Cool Now finally can go poly..... Very Happy

The man who was death SG

wa kaoz, read this thread make me feel worse, i retake O level and still fail my e maths.

So starpuppy, dun be like me, work really hard!!! it would be really better if u revise some of your sec 3 stuffs for e maths if u retake cos those private sch will only teach sec 4 stuffs. and they may use old ten year series, so try to practise more.
