Depressed about A's...

Hi. I'm new to this forum & I have a few questions to ask of you guys so I hope you can help me...
I just got my A level results and they are not really good: A/D/E (math/bio/chem) and C for GP. Quite below average. So I was wondering what courses can I apply for in NUS or NTU? And is it possible for me to apply for a course that only looks at my Math grade & ignore the rest? Really at a loss here at what to do... Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

I think you can try SIM... NTU maybe common engineering or computer engineering can go in... But my friend got ADD, C for GP (3 yrs ago also) didn't get into NTU, NUS and SMU... He went SIM instead...
Good luck... Maybe u shd go down for the uni openhouses n ask them...
-
can retake A level as many times as you want.

I wanna ask something also if like Maths Chem Bio H2 all got pretty decent grade but GP got a D ( essay totally out of point ) is it game over?

I retook my GP when I was in army.
But even without re-taking, the only main thing is that you will need to take an entry test for English if your GP is below B4. If pass, then nothing. If fail, you will need to take an english module during your uni days till you pass the module.
I heard the test is very easy to pass btw, especially for Singaporeans.

I am going NS pretty soon so I can retake GP ? Just GP alone ? Will the new GP result be reflected on my existing result ? I really screwed it cause I didnt read the question proprely ar .... sibei sian.
-
I'm going into NS soon but my friends told me that there is no point in retaking because one has simply no time to study in there. I was thinking of Mathematical Sciences from NTU. Or is there really no other course that I can apply for other than those in SIM? - sighs -

Can. Will not be reflected on existing result slip. But when fill up form next time, you can just fill up the improved result; it is valid.

Don't worry. Just apply all that you think you wan to try. If cannot go, then you change course to apply. You got 2 extra years to try again for a different course if you fail unfortunately.

See if you NS after BMT all those tough tough period how lor. My cousin broke his leg then he use the time to study during his duties ( clean lorries) then he got 4 As. Now in computer engineering. I also retaking GP during NS ba.

eagle you now studying what leh ?
-
go SIM
-
I'm trying to avoid SIM as I know you have to pay a lot just to survive in there. You mean one can retake GP alone & the new grade would be reflected on your results slip? Then will it be too late to retake like 1 year later? Because the first year in NS is very much a transition period for one. Going into BMT then getting posted to your new unit...

cheer up.. my friend's friend more jialat... i think like B/C/C or smth.. =(
-
an A will get you somewhere
-
Are you sure? But the main question is, where will it get me to?
-
My teacher did tell my friends that if they did well for one H2 but did not for the other H2 and really really want to squeeze into uni to choose courses that is related to that suject or pick some not so popular courses.
-
you still have many options.... many open Uni out there to choose from.

Pathetic. Some singaporeans nowadays just study for the sake of studying. They do not even care what courses they are gonna be in. They just want to continue studying to avoid having to work. Maybe they are just too afraid to step into the working world.
