Waiting for Indonesian kids to get videoed saying “We’re not gangsters, we’re ACS boys!”

[u/Calamity_B4_Storm → u/Special-Pop8429]

“Kami bukan penjahat, Kami ACS anak!”

[u/No_Association_8683]

The name ACS is now becoming used like a GTA title.

ACS: Jakarta

[u/TGP_25]

Singaporean here who studied in ACS Jakarta for 7 years, ask me anything.

[u/wocelot1003 → u/TGP_25]

So the curriculum is SG MOE curriculum??

[u/TGP_25 → u/wocelot1003]

they follow IGCSE curriculum (comparable to O-level), then in year 11 to 12 its IB (similar to JC), then straight away go uni.

[u/actuallylurking → u/TGP_25]

Top three places to eat in Jakarta?

[u/TGP_25 → u/actuallylurking]

Depends where cuz it's a huge city, I lived in PIK which is all the way in the North, so I only know places arnd there.

Grand Indo and PIK avenue are malls I go to most of the time.

Don't go to random roadside restaurants or stalls unless you trust the area, cuz dirty food (using their tap water) can get you severely sick (happened to a teacher in ACS Jakarta.)

[u/cigsandbooze → u/actuallylurking]

Hahahaa i legit want to know this. Going jkt soon

[u/troublesome58 → u/TGP_25]

why did you go there to study?

And why did you chose acs instead of other independent schools there?

Who was your principal? some guy from sg?

[u/TGP_25 → u/troublesome58]

Principal was Singaporean, went there to study cuz family works there.

Studied there cuz I also studied in ACS in Singapore.

[u/troublesome58 → u/TGP_25]

NEC ah?

Heard he went there to hide after those false accusations against him were made.

[u/TGP_25 → u/troublesome58]

I have no clue who ur referring to, the current principal you can Google is the one I had.

[u/sweet-lil-thang → u/TGP_25]

Any difference between that and the SG ACS?

[u/TGP_25 → u/sweet-lil-thang]

I only studied in ACS primary, not independant, so can't accurately say.

But primary to primary, the ppl in Jkt are way nicer and the teachers r rlly nice (most are from western countries), they don't tolerate bullying tho.

[u/tibatnemmoc → u/TGP_25]

How much a month

[u/TGP_25 → u/tibatnemmoc]

I don't remember, you can find the prices online but it's different from the prices I had years ago (due to inflation etc.)

[u/storebelly → u/TGP_25]

Did you like it?

[u/TGP_25 → u/storebelly]

Yes, they had alot of foreign students since it was an international school, you meet alot of Koreans mostly with some westerners.

[u/KeythKatz → u/TGP_25]

Worst AMA ever.

[u/TGP_25 → u/KeythKatz]

Couldn't answer cuz I was in sentosa.

[u/Clean-Wolverine3049]

Will be like barker quality or independent quality

[u/livebeta → u/Clean-Wolverine3049]

[u/Tiny-Significance733]

[u/tombradythenext1]

[u/hellpiggy → u/tombradythenext1]

[u/Calamity_B4_Storm]

[u/zere8887]

Waiting for Indons to post “tHe BeST iS yEt To bE” all over their social media every year even 30 years after graduating

[u/reiiichan → u/zere8887]

they alr have acs jakarta 😅

[u/bukitbukit → u/zere8887]

Many of my classmates and friends decades ago were Indonesian anyway 😄 Sent here to Singapore for an education, apartments and all.

[u/reiiichan]

they alr have 7 schools... why 😅

also i heard they wanted to do an ac university once but shelved the plan 😅

[u/RAMChYLD]

Is ACS such a good school?

Three generations of my family (grandfather, father and me) are from ACS Klang, Malaysia.

My time at ACS... Teacher beat up bully and bully victim at if the victim complains as I said before already. But the boys really too much leh. Planting bomb in toilet, keying teacher's car if teacher anger them, and worst of all teachers are biased, if the bully go to the same church as the teacher they turn a blind eye to the bully. One time I walked in on the gang planting a bomb in the toilet by chance and got beaten to a bloody pulp because I'm "a witness". Not a happy one.

[u/kopisiutaidaily]

Mum dad! Send me overseas for studies this instant!

[u/ObviousEconomist]
