      Iworse still are those centers who conduct pre-assessment test, you only select the best students then of course they will do well right?? What a silly concept

      Off hand I can think of 2 centers that conduct diagnostic tests.

      Mindstretcher accepts everyone. Then separate the students into Achiever and HA classes. Mindstretcher has way larger enrolment. Even though their fees are lower than those centers that conduct entry test, I believe revenue wise, Mindstretcher confirmed earning more than those centers. By selecting students through diagnostic test, those centers end up restricting their students intake and hence limit their revenue.
      I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed with Mindstretcher owners' shrewd business model. There is power in number :evil:

      However, I'm still pissed with their recent huge % increase in fees :rant:

            Oh dear, I think all of you misunderstood me........

            Mind stretcher doesn't conduct entry test, I am referring to OTHER tuition centers that do..... I won't mention names but they sure are very good at NAMES DROPPING!!! :slapshead:

              What I'm saying is Minstretcher probably earn more revenue than those centres that conduct diagnostic test. centers that conduct entry test end up limiting their own revenue.

                  Unlike TLL , they just arrange make up class for the students regardless whatever reason.

                    Sorry, wat is TLL?


                    Yup, agree. They dun encourage make up class, they jus give you the work sheet for that absent lesson.

                      TLL that famous and expensive enrichment centre in United Square.


                      As what I have heard TLL do screening, TLL also call back ex-students who quit due to clash of timing during weekdays and offer them weekend slots! Not immediate though but ex- students seem to have priority as compared to new students who request for weekends.
