      Is it ‘confirmed’ that 2014 COP will be lower than 2013 COP?

          Nothing can be sure. But there is a good chance that it would be lower.

          Last year was Dragon Year and there were 3,000+ extra students taking the PSLE. This practically pushed most of the COPs higher.

            Whoever can confirm this must be a psychic who can predict the performance of the psle sitting this year. 佩服!

                There won't be any killer paper lah. I think the difficulty should be around the same as last year. If like 2009, there would be a lot of unhappiness again. Parents already have too much stress. We haven't heard anything from govt what they will do to our education system although govt already conducted so many discussions with public. If they set tough papers, the parents will pile up more tuition next year and get more stress...

                  Something for the experts here to ponder:


                  Assuming 3 students have the same 1st choice for SAP school Dunman high. All 3 meet Dhs cop requirement of 256. However, with the following scores:

                  A gets 255+1, B gets 254+2, C gets 253+3.

                  Base on merit of T-score, which I think exclude bonus points, A should be given the priority, followed by B and then C. Without even looking into the decimal marks, A should be selected ahead of B, followed by C. Am I right?

                  If the above scenario is truth, let us go to scenario 2. Assuming their 1st choices are Dhs.

                  D gets 255+1, E gets 254+3.

                  Again, based solely on T-score, D is standing ahead of E. Assuming D gets the last seat in Dhs when his turn comes. However, when it is E's turn to choose. E has a higher score of 257 then D's 256, after adding bonus points. The system will drop D in favour of E?

                  Experts, please enlighten.

                  Regards.

                  A gets 255+1, B gets 254+2, C gets 253+3

                  For SAP schools, A,B,C are considered to have 256. The decimal points will come into consideration.

                  Very sure about this as my relative daughter got 253+2 failed to get in St Nicks IP but classmates who scored 252+3 got in.

                    There are decimal points in the t-score that is not revealed to students. Most likely the classmates have higher decimal points than your relative's daughter.
