Before i leave you all, I would like to draw attention to one thing.

Being a student in ACS(I), it is only natural that I want to continue my 2 years of Pre University education in the IB course of ACS(I).

So few people get to stay in the same high sch for 6 years (without retaining of course).

Anyway, the points to get in should be around 7. I got about 11-2 = 9 points to try to qualify. Thats as close as it gets. Let me tell you all that ACJC has 2 more bonus points for affiliation while ACS(I) does not. Strange huh...ACJC is affiliated that is correct, however ACS(I) is more than just affiliated - its the SAME SCHOOL and there's no bonus points? Let me also tell you that during mid year, I had 29 points and failed 5 subjects. For prelims, I have 11 points and 5 distinctions and no failures. Consider the improvement in points alone and that is no small feat.
Besides, I was one of those seen to be unlikely to make it to a JC upon release of the mid year results.

I hope to get into IB. I want to get in. I know a lot of people say its tough, but I still have unfinished business in the school. I made a promise to someone that I'll get into the IB course in ACS(I). Never in a million years will i break that promise.

I have one week (next week) to prove that I'm worthy of the spot. It'll be hard considering that I was rejected in secondary 2 during my appeal into the Pre-IB course. I'm afraid that the letter i write will be merely rough paper to the reader. I'm afraid that the words I say over the phone will enter one ear and leave in the other. In short - It'll be hard.

Here's what I want you guys to help me do - Pray for me.

You don't have to pray that I'll get into IB but pray that no matter what happens, the choice is of benefit to everyone.

I believe this is my choice.

When I make promises, I keep them.

I don't break promises.

Neither will anyone force me to...
