SINGAPORE – Before the O-level results were released in January, about 5,600 students had already received an offer for a place in one of the five polytechnics.
This was through the polytechnic Early Admissions Exercise (EAE), an aptitude-based process that allows students to apply for and receive conditional offers before getting their final grades.
