COMBINATION IMPLICATION REMARKS

Group 1 and 2 •  Sufficient options for JC and Polytechnic curriculum

•  Triple Sciences (Group 1) is no longer necessary for Medical Science entry at University

Group 3

•  Sufficient options for Polytechnic curriculum

•  Subjects relevant for JC curriculum at H2 level

- Additional Maths - Combined Humanities - Pure Biology

•  While O Level Literature is not a pre-requisite for H2 Literature, it helps to boost students’ confidence.
