i wanna go uni or be a teacher is that possible with a bad gpa in poly?? im studying poly 2nd yr now.
so wher will i end after poly?

Frankly, i am not sure as well, but i am also interested in being a teacher, so i did some research myself, but not sure how good my research are.
Well, if you are planning to be a teacher, i believe you may have read the basic requirements over here:

If you are just a dip holder, it seems like you can only teach primary school
To be those sec school teacher, i think they are trained in NIE, and i looked at one of the NIE website:

You can see the cut off points for being a teacher if you apply for the program.
The 10th percentile is quite low, eg 3.21 GPA, but taking into consideration the of intake size, a person with 3.21 may not be selected if all the applicants are 3.99 or 4.0
What is your GPA now?
You will be starting year 3 once the holiday ends right? One year should be enough to pull up a bit.
I just applied for NTU recently(not related to teaching), my GPA is not good enough for NUS.
Don't worry, diploma may get you some jobs for a start, like admin, assistant engineer/technician if you do engineering etc. But you have to slowly work your way up the ladder
