For the past few days secondary school students have swarmed singapore polytechnic. It’s the poly open house again. For them, O Levels were over and its the JPAE period. For me, poly is almost over and it’s the Uni application period soon. Choosing between polys – that was such a long time ago for me. It feels especially nostalgic for me as graduation draws near, marking the end of […]

Today, we’ve all come […]

Such books are also resource-inefficient in distribution to the masses, and the less mainstream books may not be easily accessible. It is also tough to manually search information in books  for scholarly research.  Even […]
