Carychidestar, eh take H2 Chem lah. Seriously, you know every
year how many JC students regret dropping to H1 Chem (totally
useless as a prerequisite subject) when they apply for Uni courses?
Hundreds (at least), don't be one of them.
Either take all H2s (as long as you do well in them, your
teachers won't force you to drop one of the subjects to H1, and
taking all H2s will give you an advantage when calculating Uni
Admission Score, becoz you can use your lousiest subject as your
H1), or take H2 Chem and H1 Econs. You don't even need Econs at H1
level to take Econs in the Uni, but you *do* need H2 Chem for most
Science courses in the Uni. Keep your options open, or you'll
regret it in the future.
Edited to add : Your L1R5 doesn't seem good enough for your JC
to allow you to take 4H2s. And because yours is combined science
(even though you got your A1), check with the JC you're applying
into, to confirm they'll allow you to take both Phys and Chem at H2
level. Hopefully they do, because if they don't, you'll have to
think very carefully which one you'll want to keep at H2. Ideally,
take both Phys and Chem at H2, and drop Econs to H1. Ideally. For
the sake of your future in Uni.
Edited again to add : Officially all subjects at H2 level are of
the same difficulty. Only H3 is tougher. Comparing the sciences
Chem, Phys and Bio, which you'll find easier which you'll find
tougher, totally depends on the individual. And Combined Science
Chem and Pure Chem at O levels, are both equally laughably easy
compared to H2 Chem, which means Combined Science students aren't
really disadvantaged compared to Pure Science students. So no
worries! *evil grin*.
Edited yet again to add : Eh obviously go to the nearer JC lah!
(besides, YJC has better flexibility of subject combination, and
*may* be more willing to let you take both Chem and Phys at H2
level). JC students are always sleep deprived. Sleep deprivation
causes brain damage. Brain damage lowers your IQ. Lowered IQ =
lousier A level results. (Quod Erat Demonstrandum)
Hi guys,I kindly seek your advice
regarding my route to JC.
My Raw L1R5 is 17
After Bonus Points:15
English:C6
E Math:A2
A math:B3
Science(Phy/Chem):A1
CS:A2
Combined
Humanities(SS/Geog):B3
Planning to take this subject
combination-> H2 Math,H2 Physics,H2 Economics and H1 chem
So from earlier posts,I've seen
people emphasizing the importance of taking H2 Chem in order to to
gain admission to the faculty of science in NUS.But is that really
the case? From the website:
