Thank you all for your kind advice! This has certainly provided a much needed realistic perspective on what choices I have in this big lottery game haha. Really appreciate it from the bottom of my heart!

This is not a lottery game! Lottery has really bad odds. Take this as a calculated risk investment. This is the single most important decision in life, besides choosing your spouse

I quite agree with you. Seeing my child happy to go to school daily and making good friendships, that’s better than gold.

Having said that though, kids are resilient creatures and adapt to cope with whatever school they are allocated. I know some kids who dislike their school environment & are miserable there, yet (for lack of experiencing other possible options) absolutely refuse to change schools when given the chance.

Never treat it as a lottery, its deliberate and calculated risk and informed decision making.

the official range in 2C should be around 1.3 to 1.5 applicant per vacancy.

PS: there is a tendency for people to register in that particular school that you stay close to although they are more than 1km or they are PR.

I made a p1-registration statistics page to keep track schools in a watch list.

Happy balloting!

From Past data, if TUR for Phase 2A is < 49%, or Phase 2B < 74%, we have a high chance for 1-2km to ballot.
Now at 2A1, TUR already 49%. Usually for 2A2 it will increase at least 12% means total 61% TUR at 2A.
I would suggest to go for a backup school.

By the way, the standard of \"newbie\" is extraordinary high this year.

Public forum doesn't seem to be the official way to discuss this topic nowadays. Alot of lizards and lurkers hanging around and holding the cards very closely.

Anyway, if you have gotten any help here and would be kind enough to leave some hint and data after you successfully gotten your spot, please provide breakdown distance breakdown (SC/PR) for future treasure hunters to find.

RED colour always means proceed with caution.

From the table I assume no balloting for SC <1km under 2b for awhile now?

Sorry where do you guys see acsp requires balloting for SC within 1km over past two years?

2016 Balloting for SC<1km
2017 balloting for SC >2km
2018 All SC <1km went in.

2019 TUR until 2A1 is higher than 2015, 2017 and 2018 now. (lower than 2016)

Dear Experts,

wanted to seek your opinion on Tanjong Katong Primary School.
From the past statistics TKPS only went for balloting in 2018 in phase 2CS, prior to that, till 2015 even people going for 2CS got in without ballot.
I was hoping for that as my choice for 2C phase and I live within 2 km of the school.
TKPS will have a new location (new building) and morning session from next year, compared to the temporary location and afternoon session last 2-3 years.

So what I wanted to know from the experienced folks here is, how much to trust the past 2-3 years data, since the school might not have been an ideal choice (due to afternoon session).
Do you guys think given the new location and morning session TKPS will be more popular in 2C/2CS phases?
while the predictions (projections) of 2019 are on this site, but are they only based on past data, or they also take into account the new factor like new popularity due to morning session.

Thanks and regard.
