hi i'm sec 3 and now i'm kinda struggling with physics...although it's already july i'm wondering if it's possible to change my science..like to bio? do sec. schools allow that? because i'm currently in a physics chem class, so i don't know how my school will allow me to change to bio... unless.. i self study bio and take O'levels---is there such a thing????

By right, you are allowed to drop subjects, allowed to combine sciences, but you are not allowed to do a crossover.

If in doubt, please consult your teachers and the Biology HOD to see if they will allow you a "special situation" crossover.

By the way, if you are studying in a school instead of taking private "O"s, they will not allow you to take Bio if you are not from a bio class, because this will cause the school's overall Bio "O"-lvl results to be affected if you do badly.

If you are taking 2 pure sciences, you will be strongly advised by teachers to combine them into one combined science subject if you are doing very badly for one of them.

You may change a subject in science provided that

Please take note that majority of Biology syllabus is covered in Sec3, so you will lose out greatly if you choose to switch courses

In addition, NO student AS SCHOOL CANDIDATE is allowed to take as PRIVATE CANDIDATE and all fees paid as PRIVATE CANDIDATE will be null and will be neither refunded nor used...
