yes, I understand that the school will be released early on 8 August 2018. But is it necessary to resubmit/reapply on 10am? I am just wondering whether it makes any different resubmitting/reapplying on the 8 Aug itself or later?

We are simply advising you to be the fastest person there, to be as high on the waitlist as you possibly can.

If u delay and delay, you will be lower down the list. When the school got vacancy open up, guess who they call first? The most sincere one right?

I should have made myself clearer. thanks for explaining, zac's mum.

wait. you are not reapplying or resubmitting...but merely putting your name on school wait list in case there is someone who leaves and there is a vacancy.
kiasu mah. though it is not transparent or confirmed who will be called if there is a vacancy, it's still 'safer' to submit name asap right?

if balloted out, next step would have to register at schools which still have vacancies under 2CS on 13/8.
this p1 registration is a stressful process every year...but worse during hot ones.

Thanks for the clarification.... now I understand better... :thankyou:

[janet88]

there is no choice but to be kiasu…which is why we are in this forum right?

If you look at RGPS' earlier phases, the take up was not as strong as MGS, SCGS, HPPS as it doesn't have affiliation. 114 spots were available at 2C for RGPS as a result. also, i am not sure if it is a result of non-affiliation but about 50% of RGPS students go to IP program generally. It is all at your own merits.

although RGPS doesn't have affiliation, the girls on the whole do well. even if they don't make it to IP schools, they can still make it to express stream. Marymount doesn't have affiliation. if it does, there may not be space in 2CS in my opinion.

Unless the data / info comes from a verified source, I would take \"50% of RGPS students go to IP program\" with a pinch of salt.[/quote]It was announced by the school last year that 50% of the students got 250 and above. But of course it doesn't mean that they all went IP program.

Depends on the school. Never try, never know. I’m guessing it’ll be at the end of the working day. Otherwise parents will lose sleep and cant sleep well over the weekend.

based on yesterday's update, many parents would have known if the schools they registered their kids in would have balloting or not.
this weekend, many won't be able to sleep well.
