GCE 'O' Level Exam Timetable 2007
Monday, May 07, 2007
the full schedule for this year's O Levels is annouced and is available online through SEAB.
before you rush forward and click on the link and get overwhelmed by whatever you see on the screen, you might wanna see the condensed version I had done.
==
I had addressed each of the papers in a less cryptic way and only included things that concerned the Secondary 4 Express batch of CWSS.
this basically means it is probably all that you had to know. the link is at the end of this post for those of you who refuse to trust me. and to think I shared the link with you, ungrateful person.
==
for those who thought I made a dumb mistake in choosing science papers marked with a SPA behind [5056 PHYSICS (SPA), 5066 CHEMISTRY (SPA) and 5099 BIOLOGY (SPA)], take note the SPA simply meant it is the version of the paper without a O Level practical, which are offered by [5052 PHYSICS, 5068 CHEMISTRY and 5093 BIOLOGY].
oh, and for your information, 2172 HISTORY is different from our history elective. the history we are taking is actually 2190/03 COMBINED HUMANITIES, so it isnt a mistake too.
the timetable follows below.

Clashes:
there will be three major clashes for our school. Oct 23rd, Nov 5th and Nov 11th.
the 23/10 clash is the worst, with Economics paper 1 and 2 and A Maths paper 2 timings overlapping each other. I believe the school have to contact MOE to make arrangements. lets see.
the 5/11 clash is worse, considering it is SS clashing with Biology paper 2. it is a slight improvement I guess, considering it used to clash with Geography paper 2 instead.
the 12/11 one isnt that bad. it is just Chemistry and Physics paper 1 on the same day. and those pesky 4/2 to 4/4 people get to end their exams one day earlier than us for this!
==
for me the only clash is on the 5th. I kind of expected it already, considering how biology has been clashing with something else on a yearly basis. well, at least this time it is before SS, which is quite a significant improvement from geography in terms of brain cells killed.
there is also a long day on 29th October, English Paper 1, 2 then E Maths Paper 1, ending at 4pm. I think it should be alright. after all, it is only paper 1, right?
as to how I felt about the entire thing, perhaps it isnt as bad as I imagined. I am literally taking one paper every day except for two days, and even then it isnt as if I have exams every day. so yeah, all is good.
oh, before I forget, the link. you decide if you still need it.
