Q: What does this Nanyang Junior College (NYJC) guide cover?
A: The key official pages to check before you shortlist NYJC for Singapore’s Joint Admissions Exercise (JAE), plus a simple way to use cut-off point ranges to build a realistic Junior College (JC) shortlist.

The core idea is simple: Shortlist NYJC using your net L1R5 and a balanced JAE risk mix.

Use it as a working check: Check cut-off bands, Science or Arts track, official JAE page, subject combinations, open house, and posting-day instructions.

Then go one layer deeper: Build Safe, Target, and Reach choices so one competitive year does not break the whole list.

The shortlist tool currently shows 2025 JAE data. Check back after MOE publishes 2026 posting results for updated scores.
