Poly or Jc ? Now thats the question...
Some of u are still struggling with whether to go jc or poly. Well i hope i can help out...

Jc(Positive/Negative Points)
  1. (+) = Many different jcs scattered all over Singapore. (To name a few, SAJC,CJC, YJC, AJC)
  2. (+) = Very Academic as u will nid to "prepare" for A levels if u lyk Secondary school u wont have any problems...
  3. (+/-) = 1st year & 2nd year in Jc is lyk takin sec 3 & sec 4 over again... So u may get the sense of Deja vu again...(A level = O level + Major headaches?)
  4. (+/-) = u nid to wear school uniform, go CCA & take exams every now & then... Perfect for those who are used to sceondary school life & dun want to break away from the trend...
  5. (+) = U get to see old frens hu are also goin Jc
Poly(Positive/Negative Points)

  1. (+) = 5 Different Polys (Ngee Ann, Singapore, Temasek, Republic & Nanayang Poly)
  2. (+) = A more hands on Approach for those who prefer the more pratical side...
  3. (+/-) = School Starts Later.Different from Secondary school after every 4-7 weeks there will be a 2 week holiday. There is also a need to attend tutorials, extra lessons & etc;
  4. (+/-) = No uniforms(oops i nid to expand my wadrobe?)
  5. (+/-) =U also get to see old frens hu are going poly...
Myths (BUSTED)

  • Higher chance of getting into university when u go Jc? Not True, as if u work hard in poly (top 10-15%) u may go into university & just because u get into Jc doesnt mean u get good A level Results & can go to Uni.
  • Poly Life is more slack compared to Jc? Not True, Poly life can be just as difficult as Jc with exams every now & then...
  • Smart People only go Jc? Not True Again, Just because they are smart doesnt mean they lean towards 1 side of the spectrum as they can choose to go either Jc or Poly
Important Facts to also Note :
  • New University is coming out in 2013 to cater to poly students...
  • Jc Starts in 2nd February & Poly may start in April...
  • Results of Posting(to new school) out on 30th January...
