Consistent Performance Across the Board
The 2023 O-Level results also showed consistent performance in other areas. A total of 23,462 candidates, representing 99.8 per cent of the cohort, scored at least one pass, while 22,732 candidates, or 96.7 per cent, scored at least three passes. These figures are a testament to the dedication and commitment of our students and their teachers, and comparable to the performances in previous years.
Exploring Future Opportunities: The Joint Admissions Exercise
With the release of the 2023 O-Level results, students can now begin their journey towards further education. The joint admissions exercise (JAE) allows students to apply for admission to junior colleges, Millennia Institute, polytechnics, and the Institute of Technical Education. The application period for JAE has already commenced and will continue until 4pm on Tuesday, Jan. 16, 2024.
The Importance of Education and Career Guidance
In navigating the next steps, students can seek guidance from their teachers or Education and Career Guidance (ECG) counsellors. The MOE ECG Centre also offers online and phone counselling services to candidates from Jan. 11 to 18, 2024. Additionally, students can refer to MOE’s CourseFinder website and MySkillsFuture to learn more about the range of education and career pathways available to them.
