Having 4 primary schools under 2km is meaningless if the schools are going to ballot for SC < 1km.

The first thing to do is to eliminate those schools that you won't stand a chance.

I have a dragon girl too! i have another horse girl… Gosh! You mean PV registration has already started for some schools!!!

I have been doing my ‘homework’ in selecting schools… don’t know what to look for but for sure distance and convenience is the priorities. If the pri school is super overwhelming, should i take the chance to ballot??? Since the distance is >1KM??? By the way, can anyone advise whether Teck Ghee is a good school? It’s so stressful… Gosh!!!

If the primary school is super overwhelming, anyone staying beyond 1km is effectively ruled out.

Sorry floppy... actually is less than <1KM... pardon my symbols...[/quote]To answer your original question, there's not one definite answer. A lot depends on your individual risk tolerance and the location you live in.

Working on the worst case scenario, i.e. assuming you fail the ballot in P2C. Need to consider the options nearby for P2Cs (historical data) and whether you are comfortable with them. If yes, go for the ballot in P2C. If no, go for a \"safer\" selection in P2C.

If, unfortunately, your neighbourhood doesn't provide you with any or many P2Cs option, then go for the \"safer\" selection in P2C. The worst case scenario could land you in a school many kms away.

Thanks a lot for your advice floppy!


Ya.. I get what you mean. I think we will take the risk and gamble our luck under P2C. Well, at least we try and if we fails we will try another nearest school which will be AMKPS. But is it possible to place a waiting list from i.e. AMKPS to SNGS?
:evil: Knowing the chances of getting in under P2C is soooo slim...

Yes, it's possible to be placed on waiting list after you have secured a place in a primary school.
However, given that applicants in P2A, P2B and P2C for SNGS are all involved in balloting, I won't get my hopes up too high if you are only wait listed after P2C.
