Hmm..taking 4 electives may be too much for me too handle..i'm afraid i wont do well in accounting and maths (i like maths but..and i suck at accounting during secondary school period) and is there like a tuition classes that we can take??

You will be learning in a university-type environment. For each subject, you'll have 1 lecture and 1 tutorial a week. A tutorial is a smaller group(about 14 students) which enforces what you learn in lectures. Thus, there would be no need for private tuition classes. QUOTE(genejere @ Jan 29 2008, 12:15 AM)
I am aiming for dentistry so Im going to take maths 1, chem and biology. I don't think i would be able to handle maths 2 and physics, so do you have any suggestions on my 4th electives ?
You could probably take accounting as a 4th elective. It is quite easy to score and it could help you.The prerequisite for dentistry is(assuming you take chem, maths 1, bio and accounting):
Subject 1: English
Subject 2: Chemistry
Subject 3: Maths 1, Maths 2 or physics
Subject 4: One other-Biology, Accounting, HOI
Thus, using this combination, you could easily use accounting as your best 4 just in case your bio mark is not very good.

we are allowed 5 subjects..2 core + 3 electives..
im not going to celebrate CNY...
and i'm feeling really sad leaving many friends any family behind (even though i'm staying with my relatives) + scared about studying the subjects i'm taking...

Yup, you are allowed 5 subjects, but some students take up to 6 subjects and get 7 marks in their result slips(including EAP). Since you are not taking any science subject, you will have quite a lot of free periods. So, I guess you will be better off doing another elective. You could always drop one subject after term 1 or 2 if you think you can't cope. im not going to celebrate CNY...
