Hihi as DD considering choices now post psle , anyone can share what made you or DC decide on SCGS IP/EJC ? I’ve heard SCGS is good school but there are girls who opt to drop out of SCGS IP to go SCGS O level because they don’t want to go EJC … EJC is understandably new unknown and unproven …


Thanks

IMO is a matter of choice lah.


If ur DD is not willing to enter EJC, but still want to study in SNGS, its rather that she take the O Lvl track since she alrd made up the choice to eventually drop back to O Lvl track, isnt it (will be less stressful that way). Even if she changed her mind, its still possible to enter EJC via O Lvl results, or to the top few JCs out thr (and definitely EJC’s COP like other JCs wont shoot up too competitively these few yrs due to govt’s policy to increase intake)

Another thing is that the school might not give full opportunity to those who switch fm IP to O Lvl since u alrd left a bad record there that u rejected their so called "best" programme. Unless ur DD is confident she can grab all the relevent opportunities like leadership positions, enrichments before she switch to O Lvl track from IP. There is not need to choose IP then change back to O Lvl (coz u won’t get the credit for entering IP track upon graduation).

So my take is either u use PSLE (if ur DD’s T-score good) to enter IP that leads to ur DD’s preferred JC-partner sch, or just take O Lvls and enter that JC via JAE (or even better if can, via DSA since dat usually secure leadership positions in JC).

Thanks @weirddad


The crux is whether EJC will turn out to be good JC or not , if DD does IP there , no reason for her to change unless it doesn’t seem to be good JC ya? And there’s no batch of A level results to gauge yet … hence was hoping to understand from parents of DC in / going to EJC

Looking at the increasing COP of TJC(IP) from the past… and till now holding on to 9 pts.

At the same time looking at the start COP for new JC like Eunoia(IP) also @ 9 pts
It seem that a single digit of 9 pts is the minimum requirement for IPJCs for both arts & science

Wonder whether there is a possibility an IPJC will end up with double digit (eg. 10 pts) in the near future

Just curious

It's possible for IPJCs to hit double digit COP as it is the forces of demand and supply, it may be unlikely but it is possible, especially so when MOE has given the direction that all schools will see an increase in places, meaning there will be higher supply, so I am not surprised if TJC or EJC hit double digits.

[phtthp]

It is possible to hit double-digit entry point, for some IP JCs, especially after MOE had shut down some other JCs, or merged them.


As for Eunoia JC, she probably need a few more years, to stabilize or confirm her standing, in terms of GCE "A" level results’ performance.

It is understandable there are SCGS girls that don't want to go EJC coz SCGS girls likely stay near SCGS, and coming to Bishan is quite far for them.

I've not heard of CHS or SNGS students switching from IP to O level due to not wanting to go EJC. Coz likely majority stay near their Secondary schools, which is also near EJC.
