no man.. they go into poly then to uni with almost a year's worth of exemptions...

and if they do not make it to uni, they have a diploma which is infinitely better than A-levels

a 10 or 15 percent allocation to poly students, spread around 5 polys isn't exactly easy.

if its 10 percent like the accountancy course in NTU, it averages to be like only 2% per poly? which is like less then 10 students will be eligible to apply for it in a cohort of 200+.

the Bear SG

well, they do get a skill which is better than the A-level people...

ultimately, i think lots of people are also starting to understand that education is not the same as intelligence..

and quite a few employers are realising that too

sbst275 SG

heck

lucky didn't go Woodlands Centre.. else it's crying to wait for 160 or 170 at Woodlands Rd (usually walk to e factory to wait).

It's Johor public holiday today. Causeway inbound was jammed till 3pm.

well no doubt the diploma is beter then the A lvl cert, i do sincerely think that unless that diploma holder upgrade himself to a degree somewhere in the future, talking about the average case here, he/she will be struggling to make ends meets in the future.

especially when the ah tiongs etc will be willing to do the same job with degrees and masters qualifications.

e quota might not be very big today, but who knows if it's a continuing trend? Furthermore, e polys are tying up w/ foreign unis for specialised degree courses.

And dun forget, they could further their studies at C'wealth countries.

dun say I'm cursing or watever... Eventually we need our own ppl to resolve problems and move forward.

Looking from past experience.

and a lot of employers are also starting to get very wary of the "FT" coming in with degrees and being totally ignorant of what they were supposed to be majoring in

sbst275 SG

ka zua

if you did not know or read up, e projects like Changi Airport, PSA container port, MRT was all said by e ang mohs as not needed.

but still, we pushed it ourselves anyway.

i agree, but the government is chasing away our own local people with their obsession for gdp and whatsnot.

just the increasing population alone is making people fed up, don't even start to talk about inflation etc.

yea, but sadly, the salary structure is stagnated as long as the situation remains.

then this gahmen can have the cheek to tell us to be cheaper, better and faster.

well, the elections are near...

however, with hammered shit like the SDP for opposition, we're screwed either way

ditto

esp seeing e smaller pte schools one.

Well e ones running is thinking nothing is going wrong until someone goes open his/ her mouth.

even so, they'll try to hammer it off...

Speaking from my experience trying to get public tpt issues fixed. 1 gd example, Circle Line dwell time.

waited dunno how many replies to get it adjusted

I've decided that faced with hobson's choice, I will go with whatever hammered crap opposition shows up. At least for this GE.

elindra SG

I still remember before all these FTs came in, people actually ‘chop’ their seats with their bags or handphones and people don’t complain that their stuff go missing

As much as I agree that not all FTs are bad eggs, I have to say there is a surge in crime after they came in numbers

cassie SG

the Bear SG

Last time if I leave home for work at 8.45am.

The MRT is virtually empty

These days, even if I leave home for work at 9am, the train is as freaking packed as it is at 8am!!!
