Use MOE SchoolFinder to check the published net aggregate score ranges for junior colleges and Millennia Institute. Then open MOE’s JC and MI admissions page to see which JAE year the figures describe.
The displayed scores are historical reference points, not guaranteed admission cut-offs for the next exercise. MOE’s current guidance says the 2026 JAE net aggregate scores are a reference for 2027 applicants; the actual 2027 ranges depend on applicants’ O-Level results and course choices and will be updated after JAE posting concludes.
Check eligibility before competitiveness. Confirm the current admission criteria, the course or stream, your gross and net aggregate score and any bonus points shown in your official JAE materials. A past range cannot make an ineligible application eligible, and meeting the last admitted score does not guarantee a place when vacancies are limited.

Which source should I use?
| Your task | Official source | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Compare JC and MI score ranges | MOE SchoolFinder | Institution, course or stream and reference year |
| Check current admissions guidance | MOE JC and MI page | Which JAE ranges are historical and when new ones appear |
| Follow the live application | MOE JAE page | Eligibility, Form A, application, results and appeal stages |
| Interpret an appeal threshold | MOE JAE appeal guidance | Minimum entry requirements, last admitted score and vacancies |
Read the range by JAE year
A published range summarises the net aggregate scores of students posted in a completed JAE. It helps a family see recent competition, but it is not a permanent entry score. Demand, applicants’ ordering of choices and available places can change the last admitted score.
Did you know that MOE updates the new JAE course ranges on posting-results release day? Keep the old range for planning, then return to SchoolFinder for the completed exercise’s actual outcome. Do not circulate a screenshot without its year.
Separate eligibility from selection
Admission criteria determine whether a student may apply for a pathway. The historical range describes who was posted after eligible applicants made their choices. These are different checks. Your official Form A identifies courses for which you are eligible, while posting still depends on merit, choices and vacancies.
Gross aggregate score and net aggregate score are also different. MOE explains that applicable bonus points reduce the gross aggregate for posting. Use the figure stated in the current JAE instructions rather than comparing a raw school result to a net historical range.
Do not carry today’s score system into 2028 unchanged
MOE has announced changes to JC and MI admission criteria from 2028 as Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate cohorts enter post-secondary admissions. Current O-Level JAE ranges remain evidence about their own exercises; they are not future SEC thresholds.
For the transition, use the After SEC 2028 admissions guide. Then return to MOE for the rules applying to the student’s cohort.
Build a useful JC comparison
- Record the exact JC or MI and course or stream.
- Label the historical range with its JAE year.
- Confirm current eligibility and the applicable aggregate calculation.
- Check subjects and combinations offered by the institution.
- Rank only choices the student would genuinely accept.
Where should I go next?
Use the JAE source guide for the application route. For curriculum fit, open JC Subject Combinations and then check the college’s current website.
