  Do you mind travelling long distances?

  At 6 raw points, you really do have lots of options.

  Dear theyj,

    The following factors should be considered when you choose an institution:

    1. Distance: try to cut down on travelling time by picking a school near your home.

    2. Subject combinations that schools offer: pick a combination that fits your interest or future career aspiration, and check all schools' websites on what they offer to students and prerequisites needed.

    3. Niche areas of schools: check all schools' websites on their niche areas (e.g. CCAs, academic programmes, student development programmes and the like) because you may wish to develop your potential and maximise your strengths.

    4. Friends/seniors: consider what your friends and seniors have chosen because it is nice to have company when you study in an unfamiliar JC environment.

    Finally, try to talk to the academic counsellors of JCs that you'd like to pick. It's always a good thing to find out details from the teachers and HODs.

    Thanks and good luck!

  Cheers,
  Wen Shih
  
  P.S. I used to coordinate JAE for Anderson JC and provide advice to students and parents who came to enquire.

   Yup, u could go for MJ or VJ. As stated, u are just nice nice for VJ cut offf. It is a sad thing that there is no more '1st three months' scheme anymore, if not, u could try the atmosphere at both places b4 deciding ...

  Same as the others, I'd suggest you try for VJC and then second choice MJC.
