The verdict is out. I've been posted to
SAJC (arts).Somehow, I don't feel happy. I don't feel sad either. I'm passive.
I would have been jumping for joy if I was posted to SAJC a couple of months back. But now, I just don't seem to feel anything.
I wonder if I would feel just as passive if I got into Temasek.
Maybe not. Considering how I've been looking forward to TJC.
SAJC might just be the place for me. I don't know. Anyway, I've already prepared my appeal forms to TJC.
I doubt I'd be chosen even after appealing. My CCA records suck and the only thing I can rely on is my O' Level results.
I think everyone after my batch should get 6 points raw for O's. That way, this stupid conundrum won't affect you unless your CCA records are as shitty as mine. JC cut offs are dropping drastically. Give it another 2 years, you would have to get at least a 7 to get into a decent school or something like that.
Other 9 pointers like me (Huiqi, Dorea) didn't make it to TJC too. And they had a net score of 7. Both are back in MJC. I think Huiqi is devastated. She hated her time there (she loved her class though).
I know a some people who got into SAJC like me. Marc, Clarisse, Sandhya and Charmaine all got into SAJC. At least SAJC won't be that much of a stranger to me.
I won't be able to take the combination that I want in SAJC though. They don't seem to offer H2 China Studies. I want to take H2 China Studies. In English of course. TJC offers a combi of 4 H2s with China Studies. I want that...
I still gotta be content with what I got. SAJC is a good school. If I've been posted there then maybe it's the place where I can excel....
