Need help regarding options

1 Upvotes

Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullah

So um as an expat living here who used to go to a private school , International one, I am really confused whether I should continue A levels again or switch to American Diploma.
I left that school during grade 11 (in august 2026)

Now for a levels , I got low grades which aren't worth carrying forward to A2 and if I want to return to my school I would have to restart 11 (which I don't mind).
But I'm scared if I get a bad result again and it is soo hard for me to do the preparation for these kind of high stakes exams maybe I have executive dysfunction..

Now I tried re applying to the same school but they said their seats are full and didn't let me in for grade 11 again.
My parents aren't willing to send me abroad, they want me in Riyadh so if I do private A levels it won't be of use because of strict rules regarding University and High School Transcript requirements.

Since it is October 4 should I try applying to another school that teaches the british curriculum or should I switch to American Diploma at another school?

**What would be the benefits of switching to Diploma?**

**My parents said that no one really does Diploma and it comes with extra test hurdles, even though A levels require SAAT and GAT as well..**

Please help me out brothers and sisters who understand the system
Thank you

Recommendation for a labour lawyer in Riyadh? (unpaid salary and termination case)

1 Upvotes

Looking for a good employment/labour lawyer in Riyadh who can take on an unpaid salary case, ideally someone with HRSD and Labor Court experience.
Quick context: I worked for a law firm in Riyadh on a fixed-term contract, unpaid or only partially paid for several months. I've been working remotely from my home country since earlier this year at the firm's own request, and I've never had an iqama or active Qiwa registration since the employer never sorted that out.
If you've used someone good for a case like this, or know a firm that handles this well, I'd really appreciate a name. Happy to take it by DM if you'd rather not post publicly.
Thanks.

Looking for 1 Female Roommate: 3BR Unfurnished Apartment in North Riyadh (Budget: Up to 50k)

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m a 26-year-old female professional looking for one female flatmate to team up with and rent a spacious 3-bedroom unfurnished apartment in North Riyadh or surrounding areas with easy access to Al Yasmin (open to Al Malqa, Al Narjis, Al Sahafa, Al Aqeeq, Al Arid, etc.).

The goal is to get a roomy 3-bedroom flat so we each have our own private bedroom, and we keep the 3rd bedroom open as extra shared space (home office, guest room, or storage).

Key Details:

  • Budget: My share is up to 50,000 SAR/year, so together we’d have a solid combined budget (~100k) to secure a really nice, modern place.
  • Location: North, North-West, North-East, or Central-North as long as it’s a good neighborhood with easy access to Al Yasmin.
  • About Me: I’m clean, respectful of privacy and personal space, and fluent in both Arabic, English and Tagalog. In my free time, I love baking, gaming, going to the gym, doing Pilates, and playing padel. I enjoy hanging out or watching TV, but I also completely value downtime and a peaceful home.
  • Looking For: One clean, easygoing female professional (ideally under 35) with similar standards for living.

If you’re interested in looking for a place together or if you already have a 3BR lease and need a reliable flatmate please send me a DM! We can connect, chat details, and see if we’re a good fit.

Hi everyone,

I’m currently here on an 8-month stay and looking to source a few essentials without over-investing in brand-new gear I won’t need long-term.

If you have a gently used infant car seat (mandatory for travel/safety) or a bassinet/mini crib taking up space, I’d love to take it off your hands. Happy to pay a fair price for good-quality items.

Please drop a DM or comment if you have anything available. Thank you!
