      I know, but I think the Chinese birth rate amongst the 3 years should be lowest for 2015 granted it’s not an auspicious year and on top of that, many of those that just gave birth in 2014 will not want to go through it again so soon. Hence, the battlefield is actually quite different. The craziness for this year is concentrated amongst the SAP and a few branded schools, in fact the take up rates for some neighbourhood schools are lower than previous years even. Hence, why I think it will be easier for SG2015 babies.

        Yes, among the 3 years, it's the lowest but it's not exactly that low compared to other years.
        Competition is always concentrated among the SAP and branded schools, more so for peak years. Expect more of the same for 2014 and 2015.

        Birth rate for Chinese
        2011 - 1.08
        2012 - 1.18
        2013 - 1.05
        2014 - 1.13
        2015 - 1.11
        2016 - 1.07

            2016 - 1.07

            I guess the parents that will be hunting then will feel the heat. 8% difference extrapolate to 300 places could mean 24 more places in phase 2B and 2C. Should even be nearer to last year's level as 1.08 & 1.11 is closer than 1.18 & 1.08. The other parents should have cause for optimisim.

                    That’s odd. I checked Dept of Stats too and saw there were 21.7K+ male births. So there were more boys than girls born in 2015

                      Oh? Can you give me the link? Was yours just live births and not live Citizen births?

                      Edit: I believe yours is total live births not Citizen births. Total citizen births in 2015 was 33700+ whereas total live births was 41k+

                      I checked Stats and counted month by month and arrived at 20+k female citizen births.
