Isn't it more accurate if you compare both with the same grade? At least keep it at either L1R5 or L1R4, by giving each a different benchmark makes mentioning the grades useless
@@shiftyclouds9591 L1R4 is just a subset of L1R5, if they want to include it, they should just put everyone's L1R4.

The POV of the poly guy is clearly of someone who bottoms the class. Talking about things that are irrelevant to a brighter future. Portraying Poly being so inferior to JC, despite cut off point for so many courses being higher than some JCs
No doubt JC is definitely the easier path if you're planning to apply for local uni, but you can still do so with a diploma (just that you'll need to have an excellent GPA). Ultimately it depends on your preference between an academic-driven path (JC) or a practical/project-driven path (Poly).
When in the engineering industry ITE grads definitely has better skills than poly grads. Poly grads only know theory. Hands on ........... CMI. This is what I observed for 25 years in engineering industry.

Meh... Not super useful to have just a single person provide their perspective/opinion which doesn't represent the masses. At least show responses to the same question from like 5 person from each group, right? 1 is not a valid sample size.
@Susan Ananda Marketers have been using statistics to create "fake news" forever so it's not a recent trend. I wasn't ranting about this video being fake news but lack of representation wrt documenting the opinions from a bigger pool of candidates.
Dun go to JC just because your parents ask you to. Some courses in uni having A Levels is useless (besides entry) and you start behind poly students and JC is rly a waste of time.
Many people don't know what they want to do yet. Going JC opens up doors for choices and gives people more time to decide. I won't say it is useless too, especially if you want to pursue academic degrees.
@@passingby1350 If you're going overseas, they usually give 1-2 years of Exemptions for poly students. If you work hard, you'll succeed anywhere. Like JCs, We have alumnus who graduated from Harvard this year and MIT, LSE etc. over the years.
@@passingby1350 Do remember 1) Those not from poly will have usually have to take an extra year as they do not have exemptions- This also means the extra year you gain in A level is lost 2) 1 more year in uni is more expensive compared to 1 more year in poly. Also do remember You will be trying to learn in 1 year what poly students learn in 3 years! In some more technical courses like Architectual for example, it will really show. In some others probably not so much ( in fact, I reckon some courses like Economics, etc A level kids may have an advantage) Research properly and I wish you all the best in your decisions! Ask around and you will find out which route has more advantages for the course YOU WANT. Having advantages in uni is really more important. Nobody cares about what you do at 17 if you succeed at 24.
I feel that it would be better for yall to find 2 7pointer or like 2 17pointer LMAO

yes, but majority of the excellent individuals in society comes from JC, and top JCs

JC use L1R5, Poly use L1R4, its not a good way to gauge their intellect, and it’s not supposed to be. You can work out the rest.

Just do what you're most comfortable in. It's your life so you decide
@Susan Ananda Good for you 👌
@Susan Ananda then go be wine taster.
I think it should be done via a discussion setting because the answers produced are clearly biased.

Ok research lesson from poly:
This is a comparison between a qualitative and quantitative research
This is qualitative, and 1-3 people are ok
Yeah, from watching this video, I would have thought that poly was definitely the best way to go
I took the N Levels so Poly is the only best place I can go to
Sorry bro. Sg edu system f u up from a young age.

I'm only a bit worried since poly is 3 years and jc is 2 years. Their route is probably faster...
Yeah man jc is faster route unless it’s MI or people repeat

Actually I really want to go poly. But I can't. :(
why not?

Go JC. Poly is a waste of time.
