Hi,

I am taking my O levels this year. I dont think I will make it for E maths. Which paths should I take? As I knew, failing maths badly like F9 or E8 wont take you anywhere in poly.

Thanks

You will have to decide for yourself which path to take, we can only merely give you some advice and suggestions.

You can try ITE, or if there are any specialise areas you are interested in, try private institutes such as La salle.

You can also try retaking your E Maths and use your combined results to enter poly instead. Note that you can only combine results from 2 sittings at most.

Thanks for the help. I will probably take O levels again as a private candidate as my results are not good enough. If I got B3 for my chinese this year and scored B4 or worser in 2011 O level, will they use the better result? Thanks

Dear Soul Reaper,

One year is a lot of time. I believe you can make good use of this one year (10 months to O) , and start getting yourself prepared for maths. With good time management, conviction, and discipline, anything can be achieve.

I'd rather you spend this one yet putting in all the effort that you'd and do your very best for O Level. Okay, your thinking ought to change right now at this very moment. Have some faith, invest your time wisely in academic areas, and I can assure that you will be better 10 months later.
