Hi slmkhoo,


Do you have the technical spec of your Macbook? Did you buy a MacBook that exceeded school’s recommended spec? I am thinking if I getting one with latest processor and bigger harddisk, we should be fine.

Hi,


Could anyone please advise if the school wants old school uniform that are still in relatively good condition?

Or does any potential students not mind having them?

TIA

I don't have a copy of this year's specs so can't compare. I believe my husband wanted a 512GB hard disk which Sapura did not have in stock, but I don't think anything else was different. Why don't you check with the school ICT (you can ask the office for the contact person and email address or phone no.)?

Hi all,


I'm an RGS-girl-to-be, and if all goes smoothly will start my time at RGS next year. I was just wondering if any of you know where to get the school uniform (whether it is available at Bibi & Baba's or we have to wait for the vendor), what is a required purchase (tie, name badge, etc.), and when to get the school uniform.

The full uniform list and address of the vendor, as well as information on the different parts of the uniform, are greatly appreciated.

TIA!

:thankyou:

My dd is in RGS.


I heard that some IP students sign up as private candidates to take the Malaysian O levels equivalent . Does anyone have any information or links on this?

Also, for students in RGS who take HCL, they do not take "O" levels CL in Sec 3. Does anyone know if they will then take both CL and HCL in Sec 4?
My son in HCI takes O levels CL in Sec 3 and then takes HCL in Sec 4.

godiva,


I’ve not heard of the Malaysian O level.

As for HCL, the girls only take the HCL O levels in Sec 4. No CL O levels at all.

Hi jtoh,

Not for this year's O levels. But I believe the syllabus is changing and an oral component may be introduced. Maybe the parents with kids in lower sec can confirm this.

what is the rationale that they are not taking CL O levels?
that's puzzling.

Any drawbacks?
what if the girl fails HCL? Then will be left with no CL O levels??!!

Can sign up for CL O levels as well?
