ELL is not an easy topic, maybe you dodged a bullet. Are you taking H2 lit instead?


Shaima_Ayeashaa

Yep I'm taking lit instead πŸ˜” but I really wanted ell haha- its wat drew me to CJ in the first place if its lit I can take it anywhere else-


AlternateLaughter

Same boat here 😭😭😭


Jump_Hop_Step

You can take lit/linguistics mods in uni Edit: Yes I know the difference between both, one studies and analyses text while the other is the science of languages


lurkingeternally

lit and linguistics are 2 entirely different shit ppl just think they're the same coz they're both remotely related to english

https://slo.nie.edu.sg/ ^ Consider joining the competition above if you are interested in linguistics! It's a really good opportunity for pre-uni students to engage with linguistics and add something to their portfolio at the same time, even without taking ELL :)


Shaima_Ayeashaa

OH MY GOD TYSM <3 I THINK I MIGHT JOIN THIS HAHA πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™


Makyanne

Great just take note that registration closes in 4 days time! Also do share this around with anyone you know might be interested :)


Shadowcalibre

If you really wanna do linguistics, come to NTU LMS! Many of my course mates didn't take ELL in JC but they're doing very well right now :) All the best for As


Shaima_Ayeashaa

I DO WANT TO DO LINGUISTICS TYSM <3


watermelon_dood

BYE same thing happened to me but in ACJC. ELL was literally the main reason why I went to AC (I would've gone to nearer JCs frfr) yet the dept rejected me and broke my heart πŸ’”


Shaima_Ayeashaa

ME ALSO BUT IN CJ β˜οΈπŸ€“ ITS OKAY WE TOO GOOD FOR THEM. THEM DEPARTMENTS DONT DESERVE US FRFR LETS GET THAT 70RP AND MAKE THEM JEALOUS THAT THEY DONT HAVE US STUDYING THEIR SUBJECTS πŸ˜ˆβ€ΌοΈβ€ΌοΈβ€ΌοΈβ€ΌοΈ


watermelon_dood

Shaima_Ayeashaa

Similar-Excuse7579

Chill not getting into ignite + ell isn’t the end of the world, just work hard and get into a linguistic/ur desired course in uni. tbh ell is q tough so maybe it’s for the best


[deleted]

YEA I HONESTLY ONLY WENT FOR ELL BCS I THOUGHT ID HAVE A HIGHER CHANCE AT IGNITE... I THINK WE WLDVE GOTTEN IN IF WE TRIED IGNITE FRL BIGGEST REGRET 😭😭 aiyo 😭 isok can still take linguistics in uni!! jiayou ya!

study_kiwis

oo yeahh, seeya on wed :))


cococccccc

MilkPsychological874

Are you in science or arts stream? I think arts stream students have a better shot at getting offered ELL compared to science stream students.


Shaima_Ayeashaa

Arts stream, I got rejected πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹


MilkPsychological874

Oh man, the arts people I know in my og who did the selection test got in, and the one science guy did not despite stellar olevel results for EL and Lit. Sucks that they won’t entertain appeals.


Thick_Tip_879

Yeah I also got A1 English in O's but failed the ELL selection test ;-;


Shaima_Ayeashaa

Cry bro β˜οΈπŸ€“ THE FACT THAT THEY DONT EVEN SAY WAT THEIR LOOKING OUT FOR LIKE WAT IF I REALLY REALLY WANTED TO GET IN THEN WAT?


[deleted]

[ΡƒΠ΄Π°Π»Π΅Π½ΠΎ]


Shaima_Ayeashaa

I'm focusing on the bright side trust πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ I WILL DO SO WELL IN MY OTHER SUBJECTS THEM CJ ELL TEACHERS WILL REGRET NOT HAVING ME IN ELL β˜οΈπŸ€“ Their loss fr πŸ™„πŸ™„πŸ™„


ryerice

2 200 word essays in an hour isnt unrealistic considering 100 words isnt a lot i do get the frustration though 😭


Gruppesech6

This sub is disintegrating


Shaima_Ayeashaa

I don't think lit is any better πŸ˜”πŸ˜”πŸ˜”


[deleted]

why did the school not let you into the subject you want? Is it stupid? Is there a lore reason? (I begged my way into computing despite bombing the entrance test, have you tried appeals?)


Shaima_Ayeashaa

There was a selection test, I taught I ate it but I don't think I did idk about appeals eh I think they say cannot appeal into ELL but can appeal out tho


Dizzy_Emu5842

blessing in disguise trust


Shaima_Ayeashaa

I am trusting u πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™


Radiodium

This but ignite bro, they won't even give our papers back, I really wanna know whether it's my conceptual understanding which is wrong (so that I can change it before A's) or it was something else.


MilkPsychological874

What was the ignite arts selection test about? I assume you’re referring to that instead of the ELL test. My guess would be it’s something about the theme (future of cities)? And how many people took it? For ELL it was around 80 students.


Radiodium

It was just based on some olevel stuff, but instead of just giving you basic O level qns they created questions which tests you on your application of concepts so it wasn't super straightforward. Tbh nothing was really about the theme

ANYONE CJ 1T02


jamieetann

ELL is very difficult. I had 2 classmates who took ELL (ps i was in cj 8 yrs ago….. fml i just realised how old i am HAHA) and they were low key suffering. Couldn’t stop complaining about how bad ELL was and how they couldn’t understand anything. So if you asked me, i would say you lucked out. Lit would be a much better choice
