IB rival!

Not long ago i found out about IB schools but still not sure how it works. Yesterday, i found something that sounds even better than IB, and unbelievable. My ex classmate was recently enrolled in some private diploma school ... something like SDP academy.

The students there get a diploma in 10 months! But after that they need to do a 5 month advanced diploma in order to get into university. Still, in total thats about 1 1/2 years... Half the time as poly!!

It isnt very expensive. The 10 months in diploma costs only 6000+, which isnt much compared to poly -- 2000+ per semester. (6 month)

The qualifications is not high at all. That classmate got 27 points L1R4. Cant even get into any course in poly. Its so bad that she wanted to retake o levels at first. Plus, she is in the hospitality management course, which is also offered at TP. That course is quite similar to mine, and im sure the cutoff is quite low too.

A 27-pointer getting into a low cutoff course and graduating much earlier.. How about that.

This thing is really driving me nuts!! There must be a catch somewhere such that ppl arent flocking to these schools instead of poly. And before i get to know what is it, i wont be at peace cos it makes me regret joining poly instead of that. Someone pls help me!!
