Pte School - not only no govt subsidy but the pte sch wants to
make a profit too.
So, school fees at all pte schs are very expensive.
Given your result - 2 A1's ie A1 in CL2 and Maths, you
should enrol in ITE to learn a skill AND at the same time
re-do the O Level as a private candidate ie re-take English, a
Science subject eg Physics or Chemistry or combined science and
another subject eg History, SS, Geography, POA, Art or Music.
The objective is to do well in these 3 subjects and combined
with the 2 A1s that you already gotten, you will be able to apply
for some very good courses in polytechnic next year.
The advantages of studying at ITE are
1. pay very low school fee ie approx $20-$30 PER MONTH
2. can ask ITE lecturers for help in the O Level subjects
that you are re-taking
3. can get NS deferment if you are due for NS
4. can get bus/MRT concession
5. can learn a vocational skill
In addition, even if you pay $7000 to study in MDIS, MDIS will
not guarantee that you will pass in your O level exam.
BTW, pte schools have a very low passing rate ie L1R4 that
is < = 20 points in O level exam. No one pte school has
advertised the number of their students that have L1R4 that is <
= 20 points in O level exam ie the percentage of students that
have L1R4 that is < = 20 points in O level exam is very
low.
when i am driving on the road on bukit timah. i saw some banners
that says
if u don't pass ur 'O" Levels no need fees
