No uniform, must buy laptop (complusary) and many assignments to do....rarely comeback by 7pm......always after 9 due to class and lectures! Its like working whole day + overtime. Only breakfast at home.....lunch, dinner in school. Rough estimate for these are about $10-15 a day. That was about 5 years back. Poly also got bus pass or MRT pass. When I was in Poly, bought the bus stamp monthly, it was $50 per month then for Aircon bus. Non-aircon is cheaper, must pay 20cents more if want to take aircon bus. My mum only gave me $5 per day to settle own lunch and dinner. The rest of the allowances, I need to work part time. We were not rich and got my twin brother, so expenses more. Everything is x2. The only extra money my mum gave was before CNY to buy new clothes. Ya, in poly, school starts at 8am and end at 6pm. If got project work to discuss, stay till 7 or 8pm. But in between lessons lots of free time. Like 8am to 10am, one lecture. Then the next one will be at 1pm. So my classmates will go arcade lah, play pool lah, Orchard lah or kick football. I love my poly life and thatz where I made frens for life. The whole group of us still in contact and meet up once or twice a year. A few of them are in the same industry as me and we contact each other for enquires. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometime he would take bus to bukit timah and walk to campus to save money......never ask him how much the actual cost for transport but told him if his transport allowance not enough that will be his problem.

Any suggestion? Many people I know of went to Meridian. My neighbour got 8points went Meridian too. She didn't managed to get into NUS/NUH so no choice to SMU instead. So I wonder is Meridian good?

Your son did very well! based on the cut off points, its the best of all the newish JCs or even SAJC etc. 3 points is more or less the maximum for Science classes in the top 2 JCs. 8 points with deductions cannot study science liao.
