Entry into Junior College is accomplished through two routes, the O level's as well as through the Integrated Progamme at the end of 4 years. It is a big step transitioning to JC from a Secondary school. Unlike the O levels, where students have 4 years to prepare, the (GCE) ‘A’ (Advanced) Levels Examination is condensed into 2 years, which means that students are often under tremendous stress to prepare within 2 years for the exams.
Entry into a good University or a good course in our 4 local Universities (NUS, NTU, SMU & SUTD), hinges on the performance of the student in the 'A' Levels exams. Typically, students gain entry using the best three H2 based subjects and one H1 subject. The H1 subject can be Project Work (PW), General Paper (GP) or Knowledge & Inquiry (KI). Other combinations can also be four H2 subjects in lieu of the H1 subject. The A level's is likely to be the most important exam that will determine a student's career path as it directly leads to a University course subsequently. As such, its importance cannot be underlooked.
Private JC tuition can be useful in order to brush up on your child's foundation. Typically, students require help in the H2 subjects, and the most common combinations are H2 Economics, H2 Physics, H2 Math,H2 Biology and H2 Chemistry. There are also other subject combinations pertaining to the Arts, such as H2 History, H2 Geography or H2 Literature. These are popular sought after subjects for tuition as it allows them to score well for the A levels.
