She left behind life of vice to clinch stellar N-Level results with support from friends, mentors

SINGAPORE — Since she was in primary school, Sarah (not her real name) was caught up in a life of crime — stealing, smoking and selling drugs.

The 17-year-old student recalled recently how she revelled in the thrill of going up against the authorities and liked to see how much she could toe the line before crossing the limits of the law.

The turning point in the teenager’s life came a year ago when her misbehaviour landed her in the Singapore Girls’ Home, a rehabilitation centre for youth offenders. Sarah declined to specify the offences that got her there.

Good for you. Some grow out of it but some do not.

Guess the race.

"While English and Tamil were her stronger subjects, Sarah struggled more with mathematics and science because she was absent for most of her early schooling years."

With N Levels, she can an LCCI Diploma in Business or Accounting, then get a year's exemption from Aust/NZ/UK university Bachelor programmes in Singapore.

Alternatively, she can get a place in ITE, then do higher NITEC, then poly.......

All the best to her.

I think she will strive to do better. If not it will be for nothing.
