      May I know what’s the balloting history for phase 2C Maris Stella primary school is balloting required for <1km, 1-2km or >2km?

      The exact number of applications by distance is only released by the school if they want to, I think.

      On average in the last 10 years, Phase 2C has 69 vacancy, with 82 applicants -- need balloting for sure, but distance unknown. You can check https://just2me.com/sgprimary/school/maris-stella-high/

      So far for <1km no balloting. 1-2km balloting probably.

Don’t even know if I should risk it[/quote]Looks like you answer your own question 🙂 I mean every year also got new housing everywhere , who knows for sure. Anyway just monitor on the last day afternoon to see the stats and perhaps a backup to fall on.

            Hi,

            If the remaining places after phase 2A2 to be split equally between phase 2B and 2C is not a whole number i.e. 10.5, which phase will get the rounded up number of places?

              2C will get 1 more

                Hi all,


                Currently, living more than 2KM from ACSP and ACSJ. Eligible for Phase 2B registration. Which one should I go for? If 2B fails, worth it to go for 2C? Any advice is appreciated.

                  Usually higher chance for balloting in ACSJ, but best to monitor both. 2C can forget it.

                    Given the previous trend, what should I look out for to monitor both? Or should I just go for one ?

                      Nope, 2B will get one more. Don’t believe? U can verify easily. Just wait a few days until Friday 19 July and check the updated website to see the vacancies for 2B.
