  Isnt it too late to do CIP now? will it affect my CCA result? BTW, i am the green ambassador of my class. Will it help? (ps: I just accidently became so "green". LOL.)

  
  its too late.

  Hi Suk! As a member of the Green Club, you should get participation points. You may wish to check with the HOD of CCAs regarding this.

  However, CCA points may not be as important as your O Levels though it does help you to apply to JCs/Polytechnics. Your CCA points will be taken into consideration when you receive your O Level results.

  SO let's say the course you want to go to is 10 points, but you may only have 11 points. So your CCA may help you. Even though it is not crucial, but it is helpful to have some.

  the raw 10 pointers still get in first any seats left they will then look at the 11 pointers with cca bonus.

  heard that now CCA points is very important for top JC like RJC VJC

  because even 6 pointer lose out to those with sec school affiliation or CCA points.

  getting more and more crazy the academic system here.

  its like raising the bar higher and higher until even perfect score of 6 As is not enough

  yes, a lotta 6 pointers now oso have good CCA grades.
  so this makes them "4 pointers"
  which give them priority of the priority
  
  btw, the top 5 JCs oredi have IP (RJC, HCJC, NJC, TJC, VJC)
  so it is tougher than tough to go fight those few miserable places left (each institution still allocate A FEW places for the Os ppl to enter)
  and oh, dun forget the foreign scholars.
  
  and even if u get in, the rest of your schoolmates who were in IP oredi got a good headstart (oredi above and beyond the A syllabus), u have to quadruple your effort to catch up

   

  and in a year's time, we may see u back here again.... frustrated n compraining abt the stress.....
  and due to commitment in academic work, u have no CCA point again
  and then u will ask, entry to uni how ah?
