It is one O-level class by year 4. In year 3, usually each consortium has 1 class doing the Structured IP programme (a more structured IP programme with more guidance, handholding). but by year 4, 3/4 of them would've fought their way back to the normal IP.thanks Lexis. it is great to know that there is only 1 o level class, because I remember reading through and someone mentioned there is one 0 lvl class per consortium (maybe i read wrongly) - for those who dsa and took o lvl, if they are not able to get into hcjc, do they go to other JC or have to go poly?
btw, if there is no change in subject combination in Y3, does it mean the rest stay throughout the 6 years in the same consortium? one more question - are opportunities opened for all and for those who are finally chosen - are they mostly from the ispark consortium?
The consortium is only up to Year 4. Year 5/6 i believe goes by different consortium names, according to the subject combinations (college parents, please correct me if i am wrong).
School has always said it is equal opportunity for all. -
thanks lexis

Dear all parents,
My son just got DSA to HCI, may I know what is the PSLE T-score requirement based on history results? Appreciate your help. -

Just got dsa means what ? Applied ? Offer given ?Dear all parents,

If offer confirmed the usual minimum t score is the t score to be eligible for express stream -

:congrats: if he gotten a CO.Dear all parents,

Yes, he had the CO. Thanks monmon31 and pirated. Got your answer.

if CO it will be as long as grades allow you to enter express (ie 200 abv). For WL1 or WL2, i guess they will look at score ultimately, vacancies available and your choices during option.
DS and classmates got WL last year but was converted to CO upon collection of PSLE results. -

If 2 boys (WL) put HCI as 1st choice in their DSA option form, is their WL conversion dependent on ranking within the WL, or PSLE Tscore, or both?if CO it will be as long as grades allow you to enter express (ie 200 abv).

Eg :
Child A on WL1, PSLE Tscore 255
Vs
Child B on WL2, PSLE Tscore 260 -

From what I understand, as long as your DC's T-score meets the minimum requirement for express stream, the one on WL1 will have a higher priority than WL2 in getting converted to CO when there is a vacancy. As such, Tscore is not taken into consideration. Whether a WL gets converted to CO depends on how high up is your DC ranked in the WL and if he chooses HCI as his first choice. -

It will be interesting to know how they actually rank DC in WL1. :?
