the edu system b/w jc-s n polys is juz being different, nt biased..
jc students wear their uni.. turn up at 7.30am every weekday fer
morning assembly.. hav our attendance taken everyday.. thats
probably the reason y we still hold our sec sch concession
passes... so we pay cheaper..
haha.. n yar.. i think the part about jc students lookin down
totalli on poly students only applies to a minority. we do
acknowledge the fact that there r certain courses offered by
polytechnics that hav good future prospects but most of the time,
we (well, at least most of my jc friends and i) dont look down n
discriminate people who come from poly.. the main reason behind
that is kinda simple- jc students fail to interact with poly
students often. thats y there's this barrier b/w us.. leadin to
several misconceptions..

i rather we poly students to wear uniform rather than wearing
home clothes. and we have attendance taken too. its only the
limited flexibility we have. though we will get a diploma in the
end. its not the matter of interaction. its sometimes the mindset
people have..
