  I am a sec4 student who sits for O level this year.My friends told me DSA. I suddenly realised I knew almost nothing besides I wanted to go to a good JC....... Could any one advises me a JC,and some important reminders for DSA? First time use a forums, -_-.

  My perlin 1 result is not excellent but also not too bad(i thought).

  English B4

  E-Maths A1   A -Maths A1

  Chemistry ,Physics, Biology A1

  Combined Humanity B4 so sad

  Higher chinese A2

  I do not have any significant achievement in CCA.

  LASTY,could anyone suggest a good subjects combinations? I like science.

  THANKS TO EVERY WHO IS WELLING TO HELP ME!

  If you want to keep the possibility of having a Science-based career / profession available (eg. Medicine, Engineering, etc), you're advised to take H2 Chemistry and H2 Physics (both!) in the JC.

  Very very few JCs allow you to take triple Science at H2 level, but if your JC does (usually only top JCs allow this, and then only if your O level grades are stellar), then you should go for it, assuming you're very keen in a career / profession based on the Sciences.

  Check out the following 'A' level subject prerequisites for the various NUS courses. For instance, to apply into Medicine, you need H2 Chemistry and either H2 Physics or H2 Biology. But H2 Chemistry is a non-negotiable must-have.

  I will recommend that you go in based on O level results as DSA usually needs good CCA (or else why they accept you), for results wise unless you obtained medal in NSW / constantly striaght A1s, there is a low chance.

  currently actually triple science is nearly impossible unless rj or hci

  for med , better h2 bio + chem as 75% took that combi for med

  Are your strong in any particular CCA?

  If you are and you want to continue you can try using DSA

  But from my friends experinence some of them ended up appealing to a poly because they could not manage their work.

  Choose your choice carefully!

  all the best ^^
