If I cannot meet the cut-off for Science, can I apply to Arts and later appeal to Science?
L1R5 cutoffYou are strongly advised NOT to do so. You would have deprived a genuine Arts student a place at VJC. You should apply to do Science in another JC as your second choice if your interest is in Science. This will be allowed if you are posted in by MOE to VJC Science but you must consider the difficulty of catching up on the lessons missed.
What about other therapies (biomedical, floortime, RDI, etc.)?
Frequently Asked QuestionsThere are many autism therapies other than ABA that are available, and we believe that many of these therapies have helped some children with autism. In time, we hope there will be other therapies that also will be shown to be effective through rigorous research. LA FEAT encourages parents to start with a quality, intensive ABA program. You may also want to consider alternative therapies, particularly if you child is not progressing to your satisfaction in the ABA program.
