GCE O Levels to be out on Jan 11? How come so soon? It used to take 2-3 months before the results would come out... more automation and machinery/computers to help mark the papers?
 
Let me predict. Top scorer will be a PRC who came to Singapore at the age of 13, very poor in English foundation so placed in Sec 1 instead of Sec two. Worked very hard with the support of an Indian teacher and within a short period, placed in express stream. What Singaporeans need are spurs in the hide!

Oh I forgot! Close behind will be a "MALAY" student with recent Indian and Chinese ancestral genetic bonds. It proves that the Malays are indeed progressing.
 
You managed to capture the essence very accurately.

No big deal as the PAP had always stayed loyal to the singing while darting from one coconut tree to another script over the last fifty years.:)

I thought so.

we are all suckers. SAINT nicks number one? Its because the SAINT is there la. the santa claus, catholic cross country state power bandwagon has to be the pimp in the hood. you know what i mean, jesus christ superstar followers are rewarded brudder. no need to be smart.
 
...and to relieve add the itching question thats on your mind.

Yes, govt do change your results to suit their social engineering agenda.

How i know? cos at sec one i forced the principal to admit he changed my results - last time liquid paper changes are too obvious on report card. Lazy con job. Nowsadays, computerized, hosay liao.
 
the above statements are very unfair to the students who worked hard and the teachers who taught them

congratulations to St Nicholas Girls' School

She studied 14 hours a day

By Ellen Joy Anastacio

Lucille Annabelle Latiff thought she would only get eight to 10 points for her O-levels.
Instead, she emerged as the top Secondary 4 Malay student for her cohort, with six points from her 7 A1s and an A2.
I think I made some mistakes during my O-levels so I was a bit worried that I might not be able to get the marks," she confessed.
So when her English teacher at Crescent Girls' School, Mrs Rupa Beng Choo, told her about her marks, she was shocked.
Annabelle admitted, "It didn't really sink in."
Mrs Rupa said: "She was pretty surprised; she's a very modest and humble girl, and she wasn't expecting it."
The Crescent Girls' School's Subject Head for Literature also related that Annabelle's father, Mr Lenny Allen Latiff, an operations manager at a security firm, looked elated but did not seem too surprised.
Given Annabelle's study schedule, he might have every reason not to be.
"I've been studying consistently throughout the year and I didn't leave it till the last minute," she said.
During the study break, she would study from 8 am to 10 pm at their Bukit Permai flat, albeit with frequent breaks in between to listen to music or to catch the occasional TV show.
Studied her way to the top
The Crescent Girls' student of mixed parentage - her father is half-Malay, half-Eurasian while her mother, Linda Pascua Latiff, is Filipino - is a "very enthusiastic student who is very willing to learn," said Mrs Rupa
"Sometimes I was nervous, especially for English, for which I got B for my prelims, especially because it's the most important subject," said Annabelle.
She got an A1.
Annabelle said she also had difficulty studying for her Mother Tongue subject, Chinese.
Despite not being Chinese, her father had chosen the subject for her when she was in kindergarten, thinking it would help her find a good job.
"To prepare for the Chinese exams, I would watch Chinese dramas, and pick up some good phrases. I would read my Chinese composition books and check out the words I don't know, and my Chinese-English dictionary."
Aside from her teachers, she also credits her parents and friends.
"My parents and friends also helped me by encouraging me not to give up. My parents let me concentrate on my studies, and would allow me to buy assessment books so I could practice," said Annabelle.
Her English teacher has nothing but praises for her, declaring: "She definitely deserved to come out on top."
Annabelle, who turns 17 this February 1, shared her ambition: "I wanted to show everyone I'm capable of scoring good results for my O levels."
And that, she did.

'I thought I messed up exams'

By Candice Cai

Secondary five student Nana Lee Choon Hua, 18, had been anxious about how she would perform for her GCE O-level English and Science examinations.
Science was the St Margaret Secondary School girl's favourite subject, and she was particularly upset after the exam when she thought she had 'messed up' the paper.
She needn't have worried.
The younger child of a Chinese-Singaporean finance manager, 54, and Japanese fund manager, 52, scored six A1s for the O levels.
She also scored a B4 in her mother tongue, Japanese, which she picked up only in secondary one. She switched to the subject after doing poorly for Chinese, which she found too difficult.
Asked for the secret to her success, Nana said simply: "My parents and teachers let me study on my own. They did not disturb me, and did not put a lot of pressure on me to do well."
The school librarian also said her co-curricular activity allowed her plenty of time to revise, as it did not take up her studying time.
One who was not surprised by the student's stellar performance was her co-form teacher, Mr Andrew Anthony, 46. He told AsiaOne: "Nana is a very bright girl, whose thoughts and ideas are mature".
Although quiet by nature, he said Nana is good at writing, and "analyses things well".
As for which school she would like to head to next, Nana said she hopes to enter Catholic Junior College and study Chemistry.
When asked about her ambition, and if she has the same aspirations as her older sister - a medical student in London - she said lightly: "I don't know yet, but I just want to retire early."
