You may collect your exam slips from the office when they are available.

4 STEP TWO (2) Verify that you qualify for sixth form. Look carefully at the subject choices offered in sixth form. Look carefully at the subject combinations that are not possible. Think about the career that you wish to pursue and the subjects required for that career. Verify that you meet the minimum requirement for the subjects that you wish to pursue. Discuss with your parents and teachers (if possible) your subject choices.

10 STEP FOUR (4) Complete the form Select subjects in order of importance Career Consider me for 4 subjects Ideal subject area Submit button

11 Important Points Select subjects in order of importance: This is very important. Students must select their subjects placing the most important subject first and so on. Note: Even though you are asked to choose four subjects, the fourth one is only given if the system cannot give the student one of the first three. It is therefore important that students do not have their most important subject listed as subject 4.

12 Important Points Ideal subject choices: Ensure that this section is completed. The selectors will use this area to get a sense of what the student really wants to do in the event that we are unable to offer a specific subject. Note: This allows us to add the human element to the process. Sometimes students were not given a subject choice because something went wrong in the exam. It allows a teacher to see what was requested and then what the student was able to apply for. Adjustments have been made in the past based on this information.

13 Important Points Career: Do not underestimate how important this information is. It helps us to give students advice about subject requests. Note: Very often the subjects that some students choose will not allow them to complete their chosen career field. When we know what the career choice is we are able to advise accordingly.

14 Important Points Ensure that you enter the correct address into the system. The system sends a confirmation . If the incorrect address is given then the confirmation will not be received. Note: Check your bulk or spam mail if the is not seen in your inbox. Verify that the confirmation lists correctly the subjects you applied for as your ideal subjects.

15 Important Points Consider me for 4 subjects: This check box located below the picture is only shown if the student has a minimum of 8 ones. Note: A student who asks to do four subjects is only given the fourth after all other students have been assigned their third subject. Therefore, ensure that your subjects are listed in order of priority as you may not receive the fourth subject even with exceptional results.

16 Important Points Students with particularly exceptional results may opt to do more than four CAPE subjects. This request should be made to the Dean of Studies after acceptance into Sixth Form.
