nah, i'm not going to a poly. my maths suck so i can't survive in a poly. still, i'm keeping my options open so i'm going to try out for three months and i'll decide.

yeah bt panjang was like, my first choice. bad move.

yeah I get what you mean. Sometimes you study so hard and then you think back and ask yourself, "Why am I doing all this? Why must I work so hard and get too caught up in the paper chase?"
I havent exactly tried both dhs maths papers although I have them. Apparently this year was the first time they moderated for A maths though.

why can't you go to poly just cos your math sucks?

oh man. nah they're actually okay, really. i view them in a more negative light... at least they're better than cjc... uh nvm. just stick to what you like k?

most poly courses are math-related/have to deal with math/physics and i'm a dunce at math and i hate physics, so yeah, it's better to go to the jcs if your math sucks.

I won't exactly agree that when your math sucks; you should go JC.
You might still have to deal with math in JC; be it Math C or AO Math.

Well, poly-courses ain't exactly math/physics-related..like ermms, nursing and design courses?

you actually need a math for design. and i said MOST poly courses.

not if i go to the art stream. you will/may have to do maths in science, but you don't need it as much as you go to the polys.

and i'm not asking you to agree with me.

Hehe, you sound utterly fickle. But ultimately, it's your future. If yo go poly, must remember that you tend to specialise faster there than if you go JC.But poly you can get to work faster. But to get into a good uni after that, your results must be really good, not just average.
JC, it's one hell of academic course & if you screw the A's you have nothing. But you can go poly from JC halfway.

Why am I telling you this? I dunno, I think you know all this already. Anyway, choose the JC that suits yourself more. Don't worry about where your friends will go to, you'll make new friends anywhere I'm sure.
And if you don't want to go JC in the end because you don't think the more academic methods suit you, then go to a poly.

It's for the best. :)

Anyway, the education system is quite rigorous in making sure we study, but the joys of learning are lost somehow. But it's our responsibility as students anyway, just to do our best in whatever path we have chosen.

Yupx, yupx, happy deliberating. :D

I'm not really fickle, actually. I mentioned all those JCs cuz I went for the open houses, and I'm not going to poly, period. I'm not worrying about where my friends go, cuz frankly, I want to start afresh and the further away I am from the BP crowd the happier I am.

Yeah I know, but we didn't exactly choose to be students, so it's not the "path we have chosen". I'm just kinda sick of studying/revising the same things again and again. I applaud the Singapore education system for producing high-flyers in academia, but I think a more rounded education would be better. (My teacher forced me to quit Spanish lessons cuz this is my O-lvl year, which is crap cuz she made us have choir until Aug this year.)

Anyway, thanks (:

you like to suck up to people from top schools. i think that's very shallow of you.
