One Way of Choosing JC Subject Combinations: Begin with the end in mind

Step 1:  Choose the Course in a local university that you want.

Step 2: Check out the university’s Indicative Grade Profile (IGP) to estimate your chances of getting into the course, or how much effort you need to put in to get the minimum grades (eg. AAA/A is needed for Law in NUS, so you’d have to work very, very hard).

Step 3: Check out the University’s Course Pre-Requisites so that you know which A-Level subjects are mandatory requirements for that university course (eg. H2 Chemistry is compulsory for Medicine):

Step 4: Decide whether you’d want to do 4 H2 subjects or 3H2 and 1 H1. If you want a prestigious scholarship go for 4 H2s.

Step 5: Check whether the subject combination you want is available in your JC.

Step 6: If unsure, choose PCME.

Step 7: If still unsure, go to Step 6.

Nowadays, it may be important to do O-Level Physics

This is because amongst the easiest courses to qualify for in universities in Singapore nowadays is Engineering, even with A-level grades such as CCD. However, all engineering courses require at least a pass in O-level Physics. Thus it is unwise not to do O-level Physics. Some recent A-level grads have found out that that their poor grades qualify for only engineering courses, but they didn’t take Physics at either O or A level, thus finding themselves unable to proceed.

Some secondary schools emphasize doing Chemistry, instead of Physics, with the reason that Chemistry is a pre-requisite for Medicine or the Life Sciences, but they forget that the eventual A-level grades of most students will qualify them for Engineering but not Medicine or Dentistry.
