Came 13 January, I collected my results. I got around that range of marks: 16.I don’t consider my results good. I could have gotten a much better score if I did put in more effort and studied harder and earlier (as in from the start of the year), if it wasn't for procrastination and laziness. I feel like I'm capable of so much more but I can't do anything anymore.
Then, it was time to look through all the available courses, I'm starting to realise how important is it between the numbers of the same grade. i.e. the difference between a b3 and b4 makes a significant impact. It could be because of that 1 point and you cannot enter the course of your choice.
It was a tiring 2 day process (literally) of flipping through pages and pages of course book trying to find the suitable ones for myself. Actually, it is quite saddening that I cannot enter some of my dream courses through the Joint Admission Exercise (JAE). I had to apply for those courses through another process known as Joint Poly Special Admission Exercise (JPSAE), by using my portfolio. I feel that entering the course that I am interested in is the most important, so that I am able to excel well in my studies.
Well, I finally got the submission done and I am crossing my fingers, hoping and praying that I'll get accepted into the course I want in Singapore Polytechnic.
Once again, 'O' level results do not determine your success in life. Attitude does. Whatever your results might be, look forward to a new chapter in life.
