Hey people, I think week zero is really exciting for most of us right? I believe all of us are having lots of fun, mixing with new friends, knowing our CP and our classmates right? Of course, DPA students should have met our board of directors from different schools respectively. So, yeah!
DES camp is like very very long, 4days camp. Not sure if it's overnight. ASC and HSS started the same time with DES. DES camp is really happening mann! Then IIT and ENG started just yesterday. BUS started TODAY! okay well, I know we all already have seen our timetable. I sympathize with DES, seriously from my heart, really sad to say that you guys have a really pack schedule. I know your timings are really hectic, but do bear with that people...
Since DPA we so united, we will cheer on for you guys! Don't give up alrite, do whatever it takes to finish your projects and stuffs. Please enjoy your course okay! Try to manage your time properly and well. Do RELAX when you can, don't put too much stress on yourself. Anything can give any DPA friends a call. ALL OF US DPA will always be standing here for you guys, and not only for DES but for all of us as DPA. Seriously, if you all need help in anything, even of a different course people, as much as I, as much as DPA can help, we will always ALWAYS be here and there for you always.
As best friends, good friends, whatever it may be, we will stand by each other for the next three years shall we? Timetable out, many have different timings, and that makes it harder to meet. If we want to meet right, we find 1 day when we all end early, or no school, or anything it can be, we meet. Then, morning, let's all try to meet at mushroom. I know our timings are different but lets make it a point to meet up. I don't mind waiting for you all, just as much as I missed each and everyone of you and some others too. I think seriously speaking, I really can't bear to leave you guys, even for lunch just to meet up I wouldn't mind. DPA really leaves me a memory that really, I cannot forget.
Why don't we organise our own outing, then that crazy empire outing. Crazy man! 1empire already 100plus people. Imagine on saturday, WHOLE FOWC going, imagine la, how many people. Sia la, like going mini war sia, almost 800people plus plus would be there. I think sure havoc. Theresa, I know you want to plan for DPA right? So we can also see how can we meet up alrite? I really miss you guys, and some much more. Love you all! I know, it doesn't sounds like me right? ya la, of course la, you all either see me crazy, talk too much jokes or laughing and stuffs. But this kind of things, i thing you all should know rite, HC, Cher you guys. You all should know, I feel like crying as I post this blog right now. Seriously got tears coming down already. haha okok, but ya DPA has been the best of my life, and I never regret anything.
cheers to all! Love you all! kenneth

About me
What is Direct Polytechnic Admission?
1. The Direct Polytechnic Admissions (DPA) Exercise is an admission exercise which allows students who have the passion and
aptitude for applied learning to secure a place in a polytechnic course before you sit for your ‘O’ Level examinations.
2. It’s an avenue for students whose passion and talent in a specific field are not fully reflected in their examination results.
Why DPA?
It gives us greater flexibility to select you based on a wider range of your talents other than your examination results.
You get to enjoy special preparatory programmes which let you chalk up poly credits counting towards your graduation before your friends even enrol!
What our Pioneers say!
Cheryl:
“Initially, I wondered why my other secondary school friends were playing while I was studying and starting my poly life so soon. Over time, I have learnt many things from DPA.
My Cross Disciplinary Subjects: Japanese Language and Psychology of Creativity, are subjects that I don’t find in my secondary school. I also learnt to be a leader when we were camping together.
It's more than studies in Polytechnic Preparatory Programme (PPP). It's all about fun, learning, interaction and friendship. This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.”
Nur Fazleena:
“I personally feel that DPA is very enriching as we are given a broader view and better insights about the courses offered in the Business school. Also,we are lucky to be able to try out some CCAs.
PPP helps us to be more familiar with the TP environment and culture. We have the chance to bond with the seniors too. It feels great to be among the unique first batch of students.”
Zhi Yong:
“DPA - It’s an exercise we would never want to miss, a journey that leads to great friendships and unexpected valuable learning as well.”
Kenneth:
"DPA is one admission exercise different from any other Direct Entry Exercise. The friends you make here last forever.
Besides, DPA allows me to finish three CDS and collect nine credit units within the fun-filled eight-week PPP in TP."
Theresa:
"DPA gives an edge over the rest? Definitely! And it comes with whole lot of fun, learning and excitement.
The best part is I get to meet friends that I would never let go of."
