They also hands on lah. You think OCS cadets easy life ah? Unless you trying to compare CSM with the 2LT ..

i never thought that going to a jc is the natural and prestige path...the so-called path that you should take so that you will have a better life when you grow older...thats bullsh!t to me...
so never you dare tell me that everyone wants to get into a jc...

StarPuppy SG

i guess she jealous that her poly friends could enter and she couldn't

Laughing

A government won't write this standard of English to irk people. Laughing

yeah, JC students even like to compare among their JC friends. some even killed themselves over grades n the size of their manhood. Laughing

pierre^^ SG

That why i keep stressing the *Most*
Most in a general term. U may think u nv want to go JC but that will always be ppl who harbour hopes of getting in rite

ndmmxiaomayi SG

That was when I was young. During my secondary school days, I changed my mind. Mr. Green

StarPuppy SG

what happen?

Laughing

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Need to say ma? Laughing

What to expect? They came and advertise their courses. Obviously, I was attracted to it. My cousin was already in JC that time, and I asked her enough questions about JC studies.

Edit: Corrected the point whereby JC doesn't offer computing subjects. Thanks LazerLordz for the info. Wink

If the JC - Poly atttacks carry on, I think we have failed

Each inst has it own merits

LazerLordz SG

that's probably true for those born before 1985.

LazerLordz SG

Computing is an A-level subject. Wink Not all JCs offer it..my time..only heard of ACJC offering that.

R3SsH|n SG

thats where the elitist problem comes into frame...you say people want to go into a jc...why do you think so?is it because jc has always been deemed as the elite course of path that every 16 yr old should take right after their O levels?if you feel this way...then you are thinking in the mindset of an elitist...
it is for this reason and people like you that has planted this "seed of elitist" - and that a poly-jc war has begun in the first place...
if there was no elitist mindset...you think we would give a damn about how jc students or poly students are faring in their respective instituition?

I think students, whoever, wherever, and whatever your standing is in the academia, should not allow yourselves to be carried away by these senseless and emotionally perplexing arguments.

What's much more important in life, is how you WILL eventually SUCCEED in your life and in your career. Not where you are now or how you are rated, and or what people thinks of you.

Qualifications and "labelling" makes not an achiever, but one's own good judgement and perceptions in life.

Her statements can be easily considered 'truth' when looking at the top JCs in Singapore - RJC, VJC, HCJC, and the like. Students from these JCs are among the most intelligent in Singapore and poised to have excellent careers.

However this is not so when talking about other JCs, where students barely scrape to enter. I won't mention their names to prevent discrimination, but it is commonly known that students from these JCs tend to get lousy A level results. Some with such poor grades have to even opt for Polytechnic education.

Using the term 'JC student' and trying to compare isn't a general standard that can be easily applied. Rather, I think its the final A level grades that the student achieves that makes the difference.

The most important thing to note is that a Polytechnic education does not exclude success and better higher education in the very near future.

LazerLordz SG

I wanted to do my As even though I screwed up my O levels, so I chose CI over poly because I already had my mind set on my path.And I did not regret it.That's ancient history as far as I'm concerned.

No matter how well you did in JC or poly, everyone starts afresh in university and if you cannot work within a new system and excel there, this kind of pissing contest only serves to play for facades and superficial pride.

Ito_^ SG

i think more poly students carry the burden of this economy more than jc students, thus, its survivable not to have jc students but its impt to have poly students around.

dcx SG

Nice one.....i just think she's the only lousy one...... Laughing

dcx SG

Way to go man...... Laughing

Polys more chio bus and no uniforms.....
No need to wake up so early n sing marigita...(Do JCs need to sing National Athem?)

Most importantly....easier to pon10.......

ndmmxiaomayi SG

ACJC? Forget it. I am not good enough to enter. Any more other JCs are offering it? I will go edit my post on it.

dcx SG

Laughing

U prefer jc girls or poly girls?

The thought of getting into a jc being the natural and prestige path to uni. has been a traditional mindset of many families liao...
