Forecast results

Many see the forecast as a mere stepping stone to what the SPM might entail, but the humble forecast is capable of so much more. A forecast result allows students to attend the January intakes of colleges and universities instead of the march or post march intakes. To many thats a mere three months of well deserved R & R [rest and relaxation] time but it may mean that you lose out on the chance of graduating a year earlier. Yes 3 months may equal 1 year of losses.

This is because when you factor the exam dates for pre tertiary programmes and intakes for undergraduate University programmes, many a time students miss out on intake dates, scholarship applications [which open and close early] as well as registrations for the best classes and accommodation. Students in the January intake are able to get the best deals and often enter an intake earlier which translates to saving 1 year or more overall.

This entry comes with the help of the humble forecast. Students and parents though, sometimes worry, about problems in the real SPM results, due march, [eg shortage of credits] which may hamper progress in a January Intake. If you dont get enough entry qualifications, then time and money is wasted not to mention the emotional and psychological effects.

However many colleges like ours have bridging programmes in situations like these for students to top up their credits without leaving the course or wasting time by skipping intakes. For us, best of all, the bridging programmes are free. Think of it like extra tuition that you need not pay for.

Another fear is whether the programme chosen is the right one since a career is not for the next 4-5 years of studying but also includes the next 30-40 years of working. We recommend here to choose a pre tertiary programme that gives you the widest options for your degree and university so a change can be arranged where necessary. Many programmes limit your options to a very few degrees and universities and that may hamper your progress later on. Get the best that you can, for the money and qualifications that you have.

By doing this, you get to save time by studying and deciding what to do at the same time. Moreover your decision becomes an informed decision since within the duration of the programme [eg our foundation or a levels] you'll be exposed to many different subject matter, degree options and guest lecturers on careers. This allows you to really and truly know what your options entail before your decide what to do by the end of your programme. This experience is much better than lying on your couch with an Ipad imagining what your career will be like. Experience it first before deciding; to mitigate a risk of mistake.

We do all we can to ensure that you get to the right choice, one that will give you what you seek in life as well as being recognized and accredited.

So get that humble forecast out and make it work for you. As always if you need help call us.
