I'm not understanding this ... are they saying most their COs turned down offer? Thanks.

Or...

They use statistical data from the past years to correctly estimate the number of people accepting / rejecting the offers and also did not over-commit the CO/ WL numbers?

You might want to check this again with the school. According to the CO letter I've received, the place is only confirmed if my child ranks it as first choice in the option form.

Thats exactly what is written in my son's NUSH WL letter too.... it clearly says place is Only confirmed if you put NUSH as your 1st choice.

Yes if for WL, MUST put as 1st choice to be considered.[/quote]Could be the case the student has 2 WL. So can still put them in rank order and if first choice WL did not get converted to CO, can still be considered for second choice WL ? So can still put NUSH WL as second choice if required ?

Could be the case that NYGH CO cases got multiple CO offers being one of the top girls school, so some would eventually turn down NYGH and go to RGS, NUSH etc ?

I see ... then school's wise. Anyone knows the COs & WLs # given?

Anyone has not yet received DHS snail mail?

One of my dd classmates hasn't receive DHS snail mail yet.... means no chance....? :nailbite: cause I heard CO and WL received...

DS classmates also received snail mail for rejection.

According to MOE and several schools, chances of WL converting to CO is about 50%. Does anyone know the chances for RGS WL, specifically, for their Special Arts Program? thanks

[Winnie08]

From what I deduce, NYGH has done their calculations and based on past trends, they know how many WLs to offer such that historically, 100% of the WLs would be converted to COs. This is with exception of year 2014, whereby the number of COs rejected was less than the number of WLs offered.

Thanks Winnie08, but I’m asking about RGS, and specifically, on RGS’ Special Arts Program, not NYGH. Thanks.
