Anyone heard from SJI yet? Certainly very late this year, which is strange since there was much fewer applicants.

:xedfingers:

nope. nothing yet. i just keep refreshing my email and KSparents forum hoping for updates!

Hi Mummies,

:stompfeet: Ok then it will be tomorrow...... which is the official last day of this week!

We wait patiently :sad:

Since the MOE website has indicated that by 31 Aug, i guess some schools will release on 31 August itself...

Be patience...

If your DC is to select among the top schools, every parents will let him decide.

What if your DC wanted to go to a very normal secondary school (because of friends or whatever reasons), will the parents still \"respect\" his choice?
What I have read so far, is as good as what our minister said: ALL SCHOOLS ARE GOOD SCHOOL, but who buys that?
Sorry if anyone feels offended, but this is real.

Yikes! I'm feeling all your anxieties now. Admire your perseverance. Hope for good news in next 24 hours or more for all still waiting. Take care though.

What domain is your son applying? I called the school last month and was told the interview was conducted for IP applicant, so O level applicant only have trial test

veryscared,
Thank you ano perspective. Yes, we will hv to sit and work it out with DC to prioritize and choose wisely. No easy task in decision making & role as wise parent counsellor.
