Any guy who wants to re-take 'O' have to go to a private sch. to
study even if u only need to re-take one subject. You also need to
take five subjects at the private school to be granted a
deferment.
I don't see why I have to waste money and time just because i need
deferment. Private schools actually cheat mindef by declaring a
student has signed up for 5 subjects even though he really only
signed up for 3 subjects. Even so, it's still time and money wasted
when u only need to re-take one subject. Nobody wants to fail any
exams, it's not our fault, why do we have to pay such a heavy price
just to defer NS?
Why should we go through more than the girls? Why couldn't we have
the equal chance as girls to re-take O levels without going to a
private school? We've already lost out to them on ns, I don't see
why I have to lose out to girls just because of NS, girls should
lose out to us as we've contributed more to the nation and not the
other way round.
You know how ridiculous it is to re-take five subjects when you
only need to re-take one? The deferment rules should change
especially since polys now start term at april which means majority
of guys can start poly before 18 even if they re-take O levels. In
fact, the age for ns should just be raised to 19 to give people the
chance to re-take O levels
