[quote=\"Sylf79\"]Hai, the phase 2b registration will start this Thursday.. anyone can tell me if coming to register morning or afternoon make a different?

it does - according to game theory.

imagine 19 out of 20 slots filled.
you go in the before the closing hours for lunch, be the 20th applicant.

the other person, 100% same situation as you, sees that 20 out of 20 slots taken.
don't dare to apply thus applying for another school.

in the end, you get your slot, the other person doesn't. (assuming that the registration closes with no more new applicants after #20)

I'm sure that are many scenarios but the above is one possibility too.

Actually, the 21st applicant would most definitely apply if there are only 20 applicants in the system.
The odds are > 95%... pretty good actually, better than betting on France vs Croatia.

Therefore, game theory doesn't really apply here :evil:[/quote]i tink depend on the distance too so long not >2km the chances is cfm higher...else prepare to be ballot

i feel in this dragon yr if there is no backup for the parents, they will juz reg and risk for balloting at least the lucky draw ticket is valid lolz... i aso reg 1st day at 2A2 in RMPS earlier morn yet it did not scare of other parents haha so many reg and end up i am the one who dun wan to risk so i withdraw of coz other parents may benefit out of this...[/quote]Dear Cloudy,

If I am in your position, I will take up the balloting.... after all, its 29 competing for 28, unless you super unlucky, otherwise, the chances is till > 99%..

You withdraw in order to register at another school in the same 2A2 phase?
May be there were other parents who withdraw like you as well, not the school provided the wrong info.

[clouddealz]

maybe the prc enrol later after the others withdraw too coz anyting can happen in every min b4 4.30pm anyway. as i aso enrol the other sch at 4.25pm.
