Hi, may I know what happens if the selected 3rd language from cat 3 is oversubscribed? Will MOE allocate another language within cat 3 for the child? Thanks!

You will be allocated to your next choice subject to vacancies. If you put nil, then no third lang. I think we put same for all three options as we were not keen on any others.

Hi jedamum, that means if we want only cat 3 languages, we have only one shot at it right? Since we can only choose 1 language from each cat? We are not keen in other cat. Thanks!

You must understand that computers must still wait for humans to mull over and type in their choices. And there could be exceptions in the processing that may require human intervention. Unfortunately, humans don't work nearly as fast as computers can. -

It doesn't take that long, they just don't want us to have time to appeal. -

I can't remember that can only choose one from each cat. I only remember that allocation is by merit. I also didn't find out if choice makes any difference. I feel just put the ones you like rather than the one you feel have more chance (unless you are ok with any of your chosen), as it is not easy to continue without interest.
Not sure if I am of any helpp. -

Agree. In fact, I think most kids are more passive n choose to be normal folks...but I could be wrong.It all depends on suitability of school for child. Some kids relish the limelight, some kids just want to be normal folks.
Plus sec 1 is a new starting point. Kids with score that meet just the cop may raise to the top too and opportunities will open to those suitable.
And sec school is a brand new battle...it is possible for one to do better in the new subjects vs some of the higher PSLE scorers and sometimes, one only need to be very good in just one or two subjects for opportunity to come knocking. ...you'll nebber know. .. -
Hi jedamum, you have been very helpful! Thanks! Yes, can only choose one language from each cat. We put only one choice. If not allocated, that’s fine, as DS is not keen in other cat. Thanks again!
