Hi all, im an undergrad about to enter the workforce soon. applied with some govt agency.. so far one got back to me and they asked me to attend a written test. I am also instructed to bring along my o'lvl and a'lvl certs among other things.

my question is why do they need my o and a'lvl cert? does it affect their hiring decision? I am concerned that it might affect my chances as i came from a really mediocre sec/jc and pretty average results.

The dept i applied for is quite popular i think... dont think it is reserved for scholars, but the entry requirement is pretty stringent.. so im worried that my sec/jc or o/a lvl result might count against me.

Anybody can share their tots regarding this?
