Attempt impossible:

My daught scored 258+3. Any chance to get in MGS or NJC? Thanks!

Since neither MGS nor NJC is a SAP school, your DD's effective T-score is 258.

MGS' last year COP - 261 (IP), 253 (O level)
NJC - 258

She stands a better chance to be admitted into NJC, provided the COP does not go up.

MGS is adding another class next year for the IB prog so cut off pt will be diff. The sch has encouraged their girls to try for the IB if their score is 257 upwards.So it shld be safe for your dd to try if she really wants rhe school. Culture between MGS and NJC can't be more different. Which does she like better?

Hi dd scored 256+2(HMT chinse)

We live walkable distance to RV high near boon lay mrt.
Thinking of putting it as first choice due to proximity to home and good academic support.
Please suggest any other suitable schools.
DD is first child so would really appreciate your input

Wow! A record low for RGPS??

My gut feeling says it shld be 280 and not 180.

180 for RGPS?? No way!!
so obvious someone is fooling around

RV will be the best fit based on distance (walking distance, nice!) with the added advantage as your DD took HMT.

Other recommended choices:
- Bukit Panjang Government High School (Bus 172 to Boon Lay station is approx. 40 minutes)

- Crescent Girls' School (MRT travel from Boon Lay to Redhill station is approx. 45 minutes)

The open house of MRG was very impressive, while NJC open house was very simple. She likes girls' school. Today we'll be going to SCGS open house.

We are considering SNGS and SCGS, too. The major concern on SNGS is the location. It seems quite far from Ang Mo Kio MRT and it takes more than an hour to commute from Clementi to there. Anybody knows about these two schools? Thanks!

Guest2016:

Looks like Top score went up to 283 from 278 which is last year high. Does it mean the COP for TOP schools would be up for 2017 intake?

That is correct. I have reliable sources saying people are keeping tight lipped about the mean T score hence the cut off.
Many assume they know but the data is being controlled.
Please be careful about your choice please don't end up not getting in any of your chosen school and get put into neighborhood schools.
The numbers that has been thrown around here are not quite the real Average T I heard it is much higher than you know - just look at how many are above expectation (our own kids) Beware

Between 261 to 264, I would say very high chance for RGS and NYGH.
