CGE Exams And Obtaining Overseas Scholarship Grants

By Arah Sho


Singapore provides an scholarship grant in countries like Japan and UK to deserving students. A deserving student has excellent scholastic record and gained one of the highest scores in GCE exams. GCE or General Certificate of Education has two levels: Ordinary and Advanced level. O-level is the standardized exam for all secondary students that are in their fourth or fifth year, while A-level exams are taken by second-year junior college students.

Students that rank on top of these exams will have a sure slot in one of the scholarship programs that the Public Service Commission provides. Aside from the Overseas Merit Scholarship and Local-Overseas Merit Scholarship, other types of government scholarship programs that the PSC offers include the President's Scholarship, Singapore Armed Forces Overseas Scholarship and Singapore Police Force Overseas Scholarship.

For aspiring students, it is important to know that getting excellent scores in O-level exams is as important as getting excellent scores in A-level exams. This is because PSC would start the selection process two years earlier, when students in secondary level take O-level exams. PSC would approach the schoolmaster of the students who have passed the exams with excellent scores. Those students are given an application form for an overseas scholarship.

Of all the scholarship programs offered by the PSC, the Overseas Merit Scholarship is considered the most important. This is why students who are planning to get one consider it necessary to enroll in tuition centers that will help them get high scores in GCE exams. These learning agencies provide not only lessons to help them recognize the format of GCE examinations but also help them get adequate examination practice. Students that struggle in certain subjects like Economics may find it beneficial to enroll in agencies that offer JC Economic tuition.

Tuition agencies that offer JC econs tuition may also provide students a copy of former examination paper with complete answers. But it is important the tuition agency will also provide questionnaires that are in accordance with the syllabus for the present school year. This is because the previous examinations may not necessarily reflect the syllabus for the current school year.
