that's where u're wrong, my friend.

the new SPM format allows specialization. if u wanna be an engineer, u dont need to take biology. if u wanna be a musician, then u take music education. get it?

nowadays, people are too obsessed over grades, and everyone assumes that pure science produce the very best students. this is wrong. having this mentality makes students think that pure science is THE ONLY way to go. and later realize that they actually wanna be a lawyer, and all those pure science subjects will go to waste.

it's not a free A. everybody works hard for their As. certain A is ofcourse easier than the others, but their application is rather limited. if u're stuck with "how many As u've got", then u're still living in the past. it's not how many As u have, it's what u can do with it. if he wants to specialize in music, he knows that he couldnt use the subject to apply for engineering courses in the future. get it?
