Some people are good at studying, some are good at making things (photographers, artists), some are good at doing specialised tasks... Gotta find your 'specialty'. Of course education can never be neglected if you have the means to pursue it. But whatever you do, have a fallback plan just in case (touch wood). This fallback plan should be more concrete than your main plan.
The commonly quoted quote:
"We are all geniuses. But if you judge a fish by it's ability to climb trees, it will grow up thinking it is stupid!"
NT build up edu to ITE.. ITE build up education to Poly, Uni. Nobody is an expert from the beginning, I'm not an instant learner myself. Step by step, step up.

i was also thinking of taking step by step, but there is no related course to my psychology dream , my fallback plan is also out, i will go by long step from ite to poly to uni but cannot take psychology so i might be pursuing for business course.
The question is, why do you want to psychology? An arts degree from NUS in psychology will not allow you to clinical psychology unless you intend to do a post-graduate degree.
Since now you have finished your N levels, I think you should take time to plan your next steps, because whatever you decide to do next, will probably decide the direction your life will go in for
many years ahead. Coming to forums to seek advice is okay, but ultimately, you have to do your own in-depth research on what courses to take to get to what you want. Sometimes, in addition to
asking 'what I want to do?', you should consider also asking 'what I can do well?'. Consider your own personality and abilities, then decide what courses will be more suitable for you.
Don't be disheartened if you find that you cannot follow your interest now, you can always keep it as hobby or interest now. Later when you are more successful in life, you can always try to pursue your
interest again. For example, I have a friend who finished her uni degree in Comm Studies, worked for 2 years, then left for Australia to do what she always want, fashion design.

Okay I get what you mean, the current route I know to get into my interest course is to score 9 points for my O level next year in order to get into tp for psychology course if not I will do business it
Don't give up! I have an army mate who was once an ITE student, and he went subsequently to Ngee Ann Poly to pursue a Diploma in Nursing, in which he excelled in. He is now offered a scholarship to take up Nursing in NUS. He is even studying Specialist Diploma in Haematology and Blood Banking at Singapore Polytechnic part time now during his NS stint. Despite taking the longer path, we still end up in the same place eventually. Its the never say die spirit that counts.
Telsoon,
I study in UniSIM and my school employs a team of full time teaching staff (with Ph.D) and a team of part-time teaching staff (with Masters minimally). Though the school fees are high, they become manageable with govt subsidy. I wouldnt call that "using money to buy cert" or that "the school is out to cheat my money", i work hard for the grades.
You are from the NA stream right? Why are you thinking about part time dip even before you take your Os? It's like conceding the battle before it's fought.. Work hard next year!! Jia you!!

I know that it may be longer but sometimes the courses in ite cant get in to the desire job i want. I shall work hard to get it.
Huh?? i dont get what you mean.
Support the old man?? can you enlighten me ?
Hmm, im from NT stream. UniSIM is famous i know. After my friend enlighten me with private school than i understand. If they dont work hard to study for their private dip, they won't get a dip cert.
What kind of job are you looking at? Perhaps can share your goals with us and we may be able to help/advise/give suggestions to you?
I qystan is referring to a certain political figure...
Hehe.. glad that you now have a better view of private schools =)
So you won't take O levels in school. If you were to take private Os, you need to be very disciplined.. Let us know your career goals and we see?
