Is it difficult to study in high school in Singapore after graduating from junior high school?

After completing the nine-year compulsory education in China, everyone can apply for studying abroad, among which high schools in Singapore are very popular. Next, is it difficult to bring junior high school graduates to Singapore to study in high school?

application conditions

1. academic performance

To apply for studying in senior high schools in Singapore, you need to take the annual entrance examination held in Singapore. The entrance examination is generally divided into written examination+interview, and you will be re-examined after passing the written examination. If you are qualified, you will get the opportunity to study abroad.

This kind of examination is more difficult than the senior high school entrance examination held in China, and it requires students in all aspects. Because students are expected to develop in a balanced way, they can't be partial to subjects, and the score of each subject is above 8, and they need to refer to the curriculum and school ranking of the schools they attend.

2. Language scores

English is widely used in studying in Singapore. Although the English level of middle school applicants is not clearly defined, they can at least communicate at the basic level, so they must reach at least level 3 English level. Then I will continue to study English when I go to Singapore. After graduation, I will have higher requirements for English scores, and if I want to study in a high school in Singapore and switch to a university in the UK, I will also have very high requirements for English scores.
