9. ITE DES-to-Poly Programme (DPP) • For N(A) students who are fairly strong academically ELMAB3 ≤ 19 points • Suitable for students whose learning styles are more application-based and hands-on • Advantage of choosing DPP over Sec 5N • Direct entry to Higher Nitec, which is otherwise only available for O-level holders • Students assured of 1st or 2nd year place in related poly Diploma course, if they attain qualifying GPA scores

10. Criteria for Poly Foundation Programme (PFP) For N(A) students who are academically strong and clearly polytechnic bound ELMAB3 ≤11, with a minimum grade of 3 for EL and MA Only for 4NA students, not for Sec 4 Exp and 5NA students

11. Computation of ELMAB3 • Combinations to compute ELMAB3: • a) GCE N(A)-level results only • Firm offer by 24 Dec 12 (9 am) • b) GCE N(A)-level + Prelim O-level results • Conditional offer by 24 Dec 12 (9 am), firm offer after GCE “O” release on 16 Jan 13 (2pm) tentatively • c) GCE N(A)-level + GCE O-level results • Firm offer after GCE “O” release • Students offering duplicate subjects at both N- & O-levels: ELMAB3 computation for PFP will take the better grade

12. Conversion Matrix for Sec 5

13. Conversion matrix for DPP • GCE N(A)-level + Prelim O-level or GCE O level results Note: O level grade of F9 and N(A) grade of 6 will not be used to determine DPP eligibility

14. Conversion matrix for PFP GCE N(A)-level + Prelim O-level or GCE O level results Note: ‘O’ Level grades of E8 and F9 will not be considered in both aggregate score computation as well as minimum entry requirements.

15. Computation of ELMAB3 For example ELMAB3 = 8+1 = 9

16. Can CCA points be used to compute ELMAB3? You must achieve the minimum criteria of ELMAB3 ≤ 19 before CCA bonus points can be factored into ELMAB3 aggregate for selection and posting. For example CCA grade A1-A2: 2 points CCA grade B3-C6: 1 point Raw ELMAB3 = 10 Net ELMAB3 = 10-2 = 8
