Dear mouth Lemonade,
I am Chin Seng, the moderator here.
Triple Science refers to the following three major category of
Science namely Chemistry, Physics, and Biology. Triple Science term
also refer to 'Pure' Science syllabus as oppose to Combine science
syllabus.
Pure Science covers a little more depth and focus more on
understanding and application of your knowledge. While combine
sciences are less tested on application but still give you an
exposure of science concepts.
Combined Science refers to any two combination of the three
sciences. e.g. Science (chem/bio), Science (chem/phy), Science
(bio/phy), where chem/phy is more common combination.
A combine science subject is consider at One subject at O Level
even though you are reading two categories of science. For triple
sciences, it is consider as taking three subjects at O level.
Advantage: better understanding of more complex concepts and
will be able to apply them well.
Disadvantage: It's very taxing because of the shear knowledge of
three sciences.
Best regards,
Chin Seng
