It was honestly pretty hard to make the transition at first and there was a bit of culture shock, being from all all girls school for 10 years. However, I soon came to realise that my classmates were a very fun and caring bunch. Support one another and bridge the gap in terms of academics early! (seek help when in doubt before everything accumulates)
You will soon ease in to school and grow to become attached to it:)

Promos was a very stressful hurdle to overcome and it was discouraging to see my grades stagnate despite my effort. PW was also quite a mentally challenging process because we had to work around limitations and constantly work at our report to adhere to our tutor's demands.

I think that what we needed the most was some form of reassurance in J1 that things had a way of working out in the end and there was a blessing that came out of every situation.

I can say that I'm very grateful for my friends in AC and my classmates in particular. They are the people who will cheer you up on a bad day and journey with you along this seemingly orduous path. When we are physically or emotionally exhausted, even a light hearted joke that pokes fun at something lame can uplift the mood.Cliché as it sounds, its through these small episodes that we bond closer together and grow to become better people.

through the people i met in AC — via CCA and in my class, they’ve been a bunch that has supported me through times when i never thought i’d could never overcome, gave me the encouragement when i felt lost and helpless and it made me very grateful i ended up in ac despite it being far from my first choice. it’s really the small things that they do like check in if i’m okay.

PW and adapting to the demands of jc to have a well balanced work life was quite intimidating as there was so many things to do everyday and every day gets more tiring with commitments building up, but by ensuring that you manage your time and don’t burn out it’s possible to overcome these uncertainties and challenges

start studying earlier instead of rushing everything right before promos, try and watch lectures frequently and not snowball all of them

Have better time management and not to get too distracted, be consistent and ask help from teachers STRAIGHT UP the moment I don’t understand sth 😪 Do MORE PRACTICE and not just study content

- be consistent in your work and clarify your doubts with your teachers/ friends immediately rather than let it snowball till the end of the topic or towards the exam date
- prioritise your time well and don’t just study on the topics you’re strong at, you could double up the effort on the topics which require more attention/ time

Found it scary but the people are actually really nice. There is a sense of camaraderie that gets forged on its own after a while. Studies... Different story.

Managing my time during curcuit breaker.... It was very easy to get distracted

It’s quite difficult and you may not feel it now, maybe when your actual exams come around the corner then you’ll start to feel the pressure but its completely understandable, the rigour of JC is not for everyone but you’re here already means you have a potential! Surround yourself with nice supportive people and join a CCA that interests you. Don’t be shy to open your mouth and ASK for any help/advice as well, be it for academics or if you need a listening ear. Oh and time management is very impt also, have a good work play life balance. Welcome to AC friends 👍🏻

Going for promos when we had the trouble from CB and Covid last year..... it was definitely tough and I felt like I was lagging behind super badly. I felt super lost from online HBL honestly but there was nothing we could do about it anyway. It took a toll on my mental health as well, which is very important to take care of esp. being exposed to a stressful environment everyday. My CCA required high commitment also as we had super long and tiring training sessions. I tried my very best to understand and get through with promos

I’m super appreciative of 2AD2 especially, the class is filled with super supportive and fun-loving individuals that never fail to lend a helping hand to me when I have any doubts or need any help with school work, and we are alws looking out/there for each other in stressful times. My CCA mates and schoolmates in general are also very nice and supportive ☺️ Surround yourself with good people that share common goals/aspirations as you!
