Don't think so. my daughter who's in RGS says they get a kick from watching this gay guy 'torture' the boys !Ykiasu:
I saw him sitting in KFC J8 the last time. My DS pointed him out to me. Told him to stay away from Bishan gay. . .
This Bishan guy not interested in girls as in RI(JC) girls??? :? -

hi sunnyboy, why not just call up the office and ask them. I read somewhere that moe grants only 1 subsidy but not both...regardless eesis, mep, gep etc.
I got reply from school saying the student can get one grant only. -
With the recent A levels results out, which group did better overall, those from the IP group or those from the mainstream having done O level ?
Anyone knows ? -
Has anyone made a comparison between HCI & RI and list down all the pros and cons for and against each school ?

GEP or not,you still need to pay the balance of the fees after $2400 subsidy. There's no longer full subsidy for GEP prog from MOE. The subsidy is capped at $2400. RI and RGS students need to pay $1200 per yr on their own. -

Don't worry. HCI is a SAP school, which means that you take both of the subjects as 1st language. They not going to side towards Chinese/abandon English, they even adopted the Language arts syllabus for English.
I'm from HCI and my classmates' Chinese really suck. When I mean suck, i mean really suck. However, at the end of the year (take the seniors as examples) their chinese become really good and they get enthusiastic in it.
Oh, and HCI is larger than RI although it's building structure is a bit
