Wah, u are generalizing lor. Not all express stream people are
like that.
Anyway, I came close to retaining before in JC1. The criteria back
then was to pass 1 'A' level subject, and 2 'AO' subjects to
qualify for JC2. I failed my econs and lit, but just pass for
History by 2 marks. A few of my close friends didn't make it, and
they were so disappointed that both of them dropped out go
Poly.
I guess retaining is no big shame, but what matters is u yourself
must not give up on yourself. For those taking major exams this
year, my advice will be to start 1 or 2 months before Prelims. Do
not wait until u get back ur Prelim results then start to panic,
although that sure did a world of good for my class and myself
during JC. There's simply too much to cram, and if you are the
"slow-to-absorb" kind like me, then u better start early, so that u
won't feel that u have many things to remember just b4 exams
