Agenda SG · 2006-03-07T21:00:23+00:00

You have a point. Some tips, if you enter MI, undertake your own academic research and do a lot of self-study and ensure you don't fall to the slacker cultu...

Now I have 2 choices, My friend in MI says 28 also can enter because you got friend there also 28 then enter one

But now.. Its at Clementi then next year move to Bukit Batok.. May get in

But I may retake as a private candidate for 8 months about 3k++ excluding examinations fees.. No textbooks but they give you notes

Its from BMC Academy

So what you guys think? I live in Tampines BTW, So I have to take the 6am train to clementi everyday then take 173 to Toh Tuck Campus

Not really sure leh Neutral

Go MI must study really very hard. A lot of distractions there. I suggest you retake the Os.

Like what? Need to explain.. Thanks in advance

lalala1999 SG

same situation as me.
i was deciding between MI and a private candidate.
but i decided to be a private candidate instead.
going to MI , alot of new stuff to learn .. must really work very very hard , and secondary sch isnt my kind of thing ..
whereas private candidate , eu will be going back to revise your subjects.
since eu haven grasp the subject totally , might as well use this time to get to know ur textbooks better.
hmm , but i find bmc academy is a little bit too ex ..
not considering a cheaper private tutor ?

just my little opinion here. Very Happy

go to MI.

its ur chance now, make full use of it.

it offers many other activities as well, CCA, sch events, etc. can make more friends!

save more money. BMC i think its rather expensive...plus u still can buy bus concessions...

most private candidates will opt to work part time....tis is v distracting...i'd rather u condt education e 'school' way....

If you want a poly education, consider retaking. If you don't want to, then go MI.

Now I wanna study marketing, And so I wanna go for a full-time private candidate for 3k++ hence I won't be working and studying at the same time..

People recommend me study the certificate from MDIS for marketing then next year apply through JPSAE

Or take the cert and take night classes

I find MI to be really stupid.The weakest of the O level batch will go there but still they study the same things people in JCs study.If you haven’t lost hope in your eduction then i suggest you don’t go MI.Remember your O level cert will stay with you for the rest of your life.I don’t see anything wrong in spending one year to improve it.

Ai ,some of dem in MI L1r5 slightly more den 20 only nia or,like 21 -23 Laughing wad weakest of o level batch? Mad And by e way abt L1r4 24-26 oso can go poly to courses like engineering ,dey are probably e worst Confused Den in dat case shldnt u suggest dese poly ppl oso retake o levels? Mr. Green Rubbish

Chelzea SG

And by e way ,e majority of dem L1r4 Mr. Green MOE regulation,but can count cca as i grade.lol.

E l1r4 28 is probably beg e principal to enter e sch lor.........

skyfoo SG

u shld really reconsidering about going MI. from what i heard, the percentage of MI students making it to uni is alarmingly low.

Takumi2eLimit SG

i thought the syllabus changed? pardon me if i'm wrong. Laughing

YummyGummy SG

I know about MI, people in there just don't take studying seriously.If you go in there,there is a high chance of you getting influence by them.Most people go there as a last hope.And i feel the same for ploy people just because you did not score well in the O levels does not mean you need to go into any course.There is alway a second chance.My friends also tell me that many people stay back in engineering courses because they found it to be harder then expected and end up failing

Chelzea SG

If u a hve a will,dere is a way. Mr. Green somemore gt 1 extra yr to do a levels

t1ngt1ng SG

is not really that bad there … depends on wat kind of lifestyle do u prefer … but i guess is no use spending 3k+ to take o level … maybe jus get some notes or stuff… 28 can go mi ? i not sure …

YummyGummy SG

3k to do O level!!! No body in the world would do that.The 3k is to take private diploma.

R3SsH|n SG

i think its spend 3k to take private O level study while waiting for actual O level exam...especially useful for guys who wanna siam NS first... Laughing

idiort SG

i strongly encourage u to retake o level....
O level maybe important in future too.... go retake,more worth it..
MI,the environment not tat good,the teachers not as good as jc,even u go there,and waste 3 yrs,i doubt ur A level would be as good as if u went to a jc...

dun bother waste ur time in Mi seriously... i was 3 months there... just dun bother try... waste ur time there... i knoe quite a few people in MI go there for fun while retaking O level then go poly...

if i were u,i will retake O level for sure and work at same time gain experience..

then after u get better results u can decide go jc or poly... bear in mind jc its not tat easy,u have to get good results so u can go uni.... i have a few frens who went jc then go ns then go poly,while some go jc then poly.. while some jc frens i have,just received their A level results and they cant go uni..

so u retake ur Olevel again... get at least all B? :p then u decide... gd luk,...

btw i can go jc but i choose go poly :p

idiort SG

btw....

as some people say,if u go to Mi and study 3 yrs,but u cant go uni,wad for... if ur A level is bad,u cant do anything

while poly,i am sure u can get a diploma and u can choose to work or u can go uni if ur grades is not bad...

really dun go Mi,bad influence... but i got one fren convert from poly to Mi,not sure y :p

Came to think of it you are right.$3000 for 8 months is about $375 per month.I guess i thought its $3000 per month or something.Anyway i suggest taking private tuition at home then go BMC my sister studied there.The teachers are lousy,lousy,lousy
