Hi,
I'm currently a student studying in Ngee Ann Polytechnic and I have this question about the grading system that got my really curious. What is the difference between an A and AD (or some polys might call it DIST)? Is it of any use? like does it help in university admission or anything? Because from what I know, regardless you get A or AD, the grade point is still 4.0. Any ex-poly students or current poly students here care to enlighten me about this?
