SUBJECTS IMPLICATION REMARKS
Additional Mathematics
• A pre-requisite for H2 Mathematics in most JCs
• Useful for Science-related courses in polytechnics
Pure Sciences • A pre-requisite for H2 Science in many JCs
• A student who takes Combined Science will need to bridge a bigger gap for H2 Science in JC
• Usually allowed to do maximum 1 H2 Science

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.
