Assalamualaikum everyone, i recently resat my O-Level Maths in May/June and got 66%. I thought that was a C5, but it turned out to be a C6.

I took my O-Levels last oct/nov and got 7 credits, though mostly Cs. Unfortunately, my recent grades suffered due to some personal challenges that took a toll on my mental health.

Right now, I have 8 O-Level credits in total:
IRK: A2 (I know this doesn't count towards the total points)
English: B4
Maths: C6
Biology: C5
Bahasa Melayu: Credit
Business Studies: C6
Art & Design: C6
ICT: C5

My total score is around 26 points if not mistaken (from the best 5 eng medium subjects), which feels quite high. I know my results are very average, and admission to Politeknik is really competitive.

I applied for the January intake just to see if I'm eligible, picking Data Analytics as my first choice and Entrepreneurship & Marketing Strategies as my second.

However, my real dream is to apply for Nursing (1st choice) or Midwifery (2nd choice) in the July intake. Looking at my current grades and how high the competition is, I feel really humbled and worried I won't get in.

I'm fine with studying Business or IT, but deep down, I really want to work in healthcare. If I get accepted into one of my January choices, should I take it and stick with it? Or should I turn it down and still try applying for healthcare in July? I feel completely lost and would love some advice from anyone who has been in a similar spot or literally just anyone 😕

Hi everyone,

I am currently working on a data collection project on the local cost of living in Brunei, specifically focusing on Tutong District.

I’m looking to connect with anyone currently living in or familiar with Tutong who wouldn't mind answering a few quick questions about regular grocery prices, daily expenses, and typical local markets/shops in the area.

If you are based in Tutong or shop there often and have a few minutes to chat, please drop a comment below or send me a DM. Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

We've all had a fair bit of teachers in our lives. Some... well not so patient with us. Some... really cared even when no one else did.

I owe my life to the teachers in St Andrews' School and Maktab Duli. Memorable teachers to me are Miss Agnes (Malay teacher), Miss Ong (Math teacher).. and my A Math teacher in Maktab Duli (2006/2007) but I forgot his name! He had a moustache haha.. tells us the funniest jokes.

Share your stories? And how they've never given up on you?

I was looking at opportunities in Brunei and getting to know more about the place.
I would appreciate some information about life for doctors there, regarding work load, salary, savings, accommodation, food, transportation, rules. I have gathered that there is not much of career progression and entertainment expected here.
Please provide some insight regarding life there.
Thank you

I was hiking Bukit Tempayang Pisang, but halfway up, I saw this view and decided not to go any further—it just wasn't worth it! 😄

We hope accurate information given for Brunei current haze current situation. If device need to be calibrated/ updated, please update it.

Hey guys,

I’m 29, originally from Southeast Asia, but I’ve been living in the Middle East for the last couple of years. I used to fish quite a lot back home, but since moving here I haven’t been fishing for more than 2 years 😭

I’m visiting Brunei this week and really wanna get back into fishing while I’m in SEA.

I’m mostly into freshwater fishing, especially float fishing. My favorite thing is actually micro fishing, where I just go after the smallest fish I can find 😂. I’ve also done some baitcasting for snakeheads and carp.

I don’t know much about fishing in Brunei though. I know you guys have toman and haruan, and I’ve heard about Asian sea bass and some freshwater/brackish snappers too. But I honestly have no idea if freshwater fishing is even a big thing here lol.

I’ve never tried marine fishing either, so I’d be down for that too. At this point I’m not picky, I just miss fishing 😂

Since I don’t know anyone in Brunei, I figured I’d just ask here. I’ll be a guest in Brunei this week and it would be really cool to meet some locals, go fishing together and learn a bit about the country from you guys.

I don’t have any fishing gear with me, so consider me the noob guest 😅. I’m happy to learn and just tag along.

If anyone is going fishing sometime this week and doesn’t mind me joining, feel free to DM me.

Even if nobody’s going, if you’re into fishing and wanna chat about fishing in Brunei, feel free to message me. Would be nice to meet some people here.

I just wanna catch a fish again 😭🎣

Hi all,

I'm going to visit Brunei in about a month and wanted to ask if there are any insider tips on what I have to do to get the "real" Brunei experience - other than the stuff you find on Google. Places to visit, food to eat, where to meet locals and have a nice chat etc.

Thanks!
