valerieee SG hi,may i know if there are anyone who is in the same boat as me who flopped in o levels and is retaking again as private candidate this yr?
valerieee SG lol.i just cant take it lying down.i dun wanna accept the fact but i have got no choice!haiz.
lalala1999 SG aiya .. sometimes must move on la .. cant always think that you are still stuck on the results day. since you already register liao , work hard for it lor. how many subjects you retaking ?
valerieee SG i registered for maths,humanities and principles of accounts.what about you?this yr is gonna be a boring yr ahead of me…
lalala1999 SG i retaking maths and english .. my o's i only fail maths ma .. whereas english i just take to give a second try , mayeb can score higher or something .. go work at the same time .. or find a tuition centre .. life wont be that boring de la .. its gonna be over very soon.
lalala1999 SG lol .. i dont understand .. last year i worked so damn hard for my maths and i still got a D7. thanks for the encouragement though !
valerieee SG oh i see.i also failed maths only.but my l1r4 is horrible so i intend to retake a few other subjects to push up my grades.but one yr seems to be like an eternity for me.btw can we use combined cert this yr?i heard pple saying that combined cert does not exist anymore.i am so confused…
lalala1999 SG if cant .. in the first place we cant register so little subjects for o's ! yea , i also heard my friends saying such things .. but i guess MOE wont be so cruel to us ? this year really alot of people retaking if you realized .. mainly english and maths..
valerieee SG my maths used to be f9 but i worked hard in the end still got a d7.if i have gotten a c6 could have just gotten into poly.damn it.i dunno why they condemn maths failures.are we expected to apply maths throughout our lives?like algebra etc?
valerieee SG serious?wat if last min they say that combined cert is not applicable then how?cant be rite?i am getting freaked out now…
lalala1999 SG can .. but only design courses which i dont really like .. anyway it's hard to go into poly if your maths fail .. but if you fail english , you can go to quite alot of courses .. and i thought english was more important than maths ?
valerieee SG they usually say poly accept maths d7 but is only a minority.u still need to appeal.if ur points are like 13 or 14 but maths d7,u still have a chance.mine is 20plus so obviously hopeless.i went to appeal at all the polys in the spore and in the end still got rejected…
valerieee SG yup,that is the point.we apply eng for the rest of our lives yet wif a d7 in english,u can simply can any course in poly as long as u meet the requirements.this is so unfair!
