        let’s take with a bucket of salt pertaining to “there are parents in this forum looking down at O level track”.
        Also a classic example of

            In the first place, have you read the original post? If yes, I would like to hear how would you interpret those words used.

                I find terms like “neighborhood school” overrated. What does it mean? Bishan is not a neighborhood meh? Bukit Timah is not a neighborhood? Are they Federal territory with a different set of jurisdiction? P/S: who’s keeping track of the rating?


                I like the term pure IP-stream. It’s as meaningless and classic as calling a school pure-O Level stream (though no one really say it). Both are technically correct, albeit inappropriate description (for some people), of some schools. We can call it schools with only IP stream or schools with only O Level stream, but beyond being PC and an issue with the lexicon, I don’t see the meaning being any different.

                So chill people.
                From a former pure-O Level stream, but now mixed-stream, former neighborhood but now shifted to atas neighborhood, school’s ex-student.

                      Yep, exactly. Actually, no need to argue over all these - there are no real facts in the original post anyway. There will always be some people who quote anecdotal information to incite a response.

                      Whether it's rumors about parents who look down on O-levels, or look down on DSA students, or PRC parents behaving badly, etc etc. Kinda like Online Citizen or States Times Review.

                        peasants, I guess some of us were caught by surprise from your posts last night…may or may not be your meaning but some of us got the impression…like O level is not good. That causes some discomforts in some of us. You have clarified once and some of us understand there may be valid reason for such thinking(if there really such)…what happened this morning, from what I see some of the members got abit lost on what the issue was about…therefore issue ‘resurfaced’ and got discussed (likely they dont see your clarification post as they are in different threads)…
