Notbothered49 SG

Hi, i want to take up guitar in JC as my cca, but i have never learnt it before. If i were to join guitar, would it be too stressful? Cause i heard studying in JC is very stressful. Is guitar difficult to learn? Please advice me! :(

But i heard jc we are supposed to be active in our cca cause its impt for uni admissions... Is it true? N i have been wanting to learn guitar, but havent had time to do so. N my sec sch don't provide guitar as one of the cca...

for uni admissions, the results come first
if the results not good, then CCA comes into play

not the other way round

if u are going for scholarships, u need to have BOTH good results and CCA achievements.

You can borrow a guitar from someone or buy one dirt cheap one from bras basah to try first before deciding, lots of instructional materials on the net.

Nope. I will say that CCA is of not much importance as compared to your results when it comes to uni entrance (Not talking about scholarships and other stuffs), unless your results are not good enough and you plan to appeal using your CCA. Of course, that is possible only if you are some sort of national champion and such.
