are you a parent of a hci child??thefunnyguy:
Is hci or ri better? I actually can't come to a conclusion despite visiting both the open houses and listening to the talks
I am sorry to provide any comparisons, I have fears of doing so after seeing the reactions in the NYJC thread: https://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=68179&start=370
All I can help is to make a rational decision and go with the facts. Good Luck! -

My JC time in the past is certainly not as rigorous and intensive as it is right now. Be consistent in your studies and you will be good to go.

I have DD in both RJC and HCI.
Both JC are in tier 1 league. They are both good schools producing good results.
However, they are very different in term of:
1) so called western and cheena culture (used by Singaporean). Eg. school song.
2) school environment. You will feel the vast differences.
3) specialty in CCA and gaining scholarships.
4) the ways of celebration of CNY, etc.
My eldest DD was in SCGS, something like Pernakan culture, when she joined HCI. she was completely taken aback, but of course she adapt and is part of the great HCI family. Hope it help. -

DD was torn between RI(JC) & HCI but had finally settled on RIJC. However, it's still possible that she may get her second choice HCI. Thanks in advance! -
