Hi Trina !
I'm thinking of ACS(Junior) but most of the condos nearby are very pricey :PPP

Will renting help, if it's too expensive to buy ? I have a friend who rented near ACS Barker, and got his son into the school

that would be my last resort - though i think the rental there wld be just as high !!

happychick, I supposed in life something has to give, somewhere.


A good balance would be to buy somewhere cheaper than you can afford. Rent it out, and that rental income to offset the slightly higher rental expense. Financing that gap for 2 years or so, may still be more workable.

If you look hard enough, you can get reasonable rental within the area. I’m talking about the older apartments/flats.

Hi Happychicks


Based on past years' statistics, you will need to ballot for a place at ACS(J). I agreed with Eagle-Ladybird that you may want to check out the older apts around the area. I had a friend who rented an apt that is due to on enbloc (hence cheap rental) and got his son a place at the school. Alternatively, you may want to consider other Methodist schools e.g. Fairfield which does not require balloting at phase 2B.

I think you can call them to check and go down to pick up the application letter.

Are u referring to the letter certifying that u qualify for 2B? Usually they give the letters quite late, less than a week before the 2B registration starts.

Or u mean the SHHK membership form? That one u can submit anytime.

I think she meant when to register with SHHK the interest in phase 2B.
