Sec 4 and sec 5 take different subject combinations. Furthermore, need discuss with the sch see got vacancy to retain.
But hw to define fail when there are so many options going forward.

Yea but majority of the options lead to failure.

Like how I chose engineering and after 8 years my salary, while same as engineering median, is the same as an IT fresh grad.

Secondary 4 already take o level
If fail, means need to retake o level

retake o levels can be as school student candidate or private candidate

retake as school candidates means return you your secondary and get placed in express class suitable for repeat students

no point joining secondary 5 students

Register for ITE first, then retake as private for candidate. If results okay, can apply for polytechnic and secure a place.

You can retake a whole year as a o level student. I believe your schools should still allow that

Last time I retook '0' level as private student for selected subjects when my result is not ideal, after which use it to combine with the previous year result and apply for polytechnic, not sure is there any change nowadays.

Yes there is.

F9 or U grade for every single subject u take.

but as stupidity goes, there's got to be a limit.

Retake O levels don’t waste time, work part time job and study.
