The Cambridge Path.
The Cambridge Ordinary Examinations was started in Singapore for Secondary Four Students and Secondary Five students who are to graduate into Junior College Students and Polytechnic Students. It is what many in Singapore called it shortly as "O" Levels, which many students up to 40000 would take up from 6 to 10 subjects and score for the Polytechnic Course or the Junior colleges they wish to take up.
I have personally experienced it in 2005, and from my own experience after receiving my results, my advice is "What you reap is what you sow", basically building on the basis of the amount of hard work and effort you put in shall be the kind of results you will get when you go back to your own school to receive your results. I shall not disclose my results, though my results allow me to have a choice of 130 courses(not a definite figure), which will be good when you look at your results.
Basically, the maximum score oneself should target for his O Levels should be below 26, as 26 is one of the C-O(Cutoff) points allowed to a student for most of the courses. Once your points reach over the limit, courses available to you are limited and are based immediate on your subjects that you have passed or done well.
For those who are reading the blog and would like an in-depth build of the score,
This is how the build is like:
L1R4:Basically this is one language(English is firstly selected unless you did not take english, which basically does not qualify you for any course unless you take the Polytechnic's courses on Chinese Studies),while the R4 is divided into 2 sections, knowing as R2+B2, which becomes 2 Relevant subjects to the course you are taking and 2 more subjects which have the best grade, ranging from Grade A1 to Grade C6.(D7 to F9 are seldom taken unless most of the grades are within the failing range)
L1R5:Basically this is like the L1R4 Build, but this build is for students who are entering Junior Colleges and selected Institutes of Education(an example would be Millenia Institute, commonly known as MI to many).You would be curious over what the R5 stands for, which actually constitute like the L1R4 Build, which is basically 3 Relevant subjects and 2 other best subjects.
Many would question my choice of a course that I will be taking, which is the Diploma for Digital Entertainment Technology, a course that delves into animation,game programming, game designing and visual digital arts. I have a passion for playing video games, and It always has been a dream of mine to be a game designer, for this course allow me to reach my dream and maximise my potential in the InfoComm Field, which i gladly would join.
As I left my 10 years of education through the Primary and Secondary Route, it is my decision now that I left that 10 years behind, and focus on my coming 3 years of education, the Digital Technology line to produce the best form of online and video entertainment for the audience and consumers who will be my future clients.
Memories are true to my heart, making new friends over the 4 years of Secondary Life, they have enriched me with skills and qualities of a fine leader and I gladly wished that this would continue, so I can contribute back to society in the same way to help people who are in need.
L:Leadership
E:Experience
O:Opportunity

Leaders of tomorrow, we are a group of dedicated people who serve as members of the society to help those in need, regardless of their qualities and status.
Take this in stride,that
"One should not expect the world to change greatly for him,but he to expect himself to do something great to change the world"
"One who attempt the difficult often attain the impossible"
