    • Hi, i'm going to sec 3 next year and i'm wondering whether to take pure science or another combi . This is my overall results. Eng : 62, CL : 71, Geog : 78, Hist : 81, Math : 71, Science : 80, DnT: 62, Homec : 71, Lit : 68, and my art failed, with a 49. My level ranking is 37/157, percentage 69.4 and i met all the requirements to go to the pure science class, but should i go for it or should i actually go for other classes? Please give me some advice D:

      Ur overall results looks good and ur science is 1 of ur top subjects so why are you even considering NOT going for science? Double maths and double science should be good for u or even triple if u feel want.

    • Many people say that pure science is tough.. I'm afraid that i won't score well if i take up pure science, or even a fail. There is no triple science in my school D: Only double science and double Math for the top class.

      If u have problems, u can either ask ur peers or post here for help. Ur results are good so it would be a waste not to do pure sciences. Unless you have already decided that ur future career is definitely not going to be science related, u should challenge urself and take double science.

      wow then go for it, A maths is actually quite easy. The difference on double science and combined science is that double science specifics on just a little more topics.

    • Take the Science route, unless you are planning to do arts?

      What are combinations available?

    • If you want to take Science in JC or Poly, you should take Pure Science, to be precise – Pure Chemistry and Pure Physics. Biology isn’t anywhere as important at any level – Secondary, JC and University.

    • The 1st combination is the top class, it has 40 places, Compulsory subjects are english, MT, E math, A math, Pure chem and combined humanities ( SS and geog) I'm not interested in the 2nd combination at all though it has A math. I will have to take art, F and N or DnT in that case, so no.. The rest of the combinations are just 6 subjects, w/o A math , Dnt, F&n, Art, Poa or comp studies, with combined science. I'm considering the last combination or the 1st combination..

      Hi Swiftwinds,

      In short, you are considering whether to choose Pure Sciences along with A Maths or combined science without A Maths. I will suggest that you take the first combination, as Pure Sciences will be of great help if you happen to choose to enter JC.

      With your current marks, as long as you are willing to put in effort to work hard, I am sure that you will do well in such a class.

      Cheers.
