I think its unlikely to happen this year but who knows!

I am considering Maris Stella as the numbers are looking hopeful for 2B (but it may be that I am reading them wrongly). Last year there were 53 applicants and fewer vacancies left at 2B phase. This year, it seems there are 55 slots left for 2B.... and if there are less applicants than last year, folks like me who are >2km might stand a chance at 2B!

Am i reading this correctly?

Following what u shared, is Maris Stella really suitable if higher Chinese from P1 a potential issue?

St Gabriel is probably a safe fallback at 2C and no need to try at 2B if you wish to try for balloting success at Maris Stella in 2B. I believe you are comparing against last year’s stats which was a dragon year and an exception[/quote]St Gabs is super safe for 2B >2km, but seems OK safe for 2C >2km? I am nervous that if i don't get the ballot for Maris at 2B, i might miss out at 2C for St Gabs.... or am i being kiasu/kiasee again? haha

It's a question. I dont have any, so cant share.

Nvm I get it now, I believe whatsapp chat group is faster ma.. but up to individual. So just checking if there's any.

possible to share?

Is WhatsApp group effective? Existing parents like me, are already super busy with our HP bombarded every day with WhatsApp msgs from our class chat (Hello! What the homework today ah? When is the next test ah? Excursion what to bring ah?)


We won’t want to join any group that keeps asking us for past stats/live update of breakdown.

As for those parents registering this year, I also doubt they will join. Maybe join to receive updates. But who will post especially those who are your competitors holding their cards close to their chests?

Keep friends close, keep enemies closer.

I donno… I’m not in the group where I have alot of whatsapl group chat on homework etc. And i dont quite relate to the point where the competitor hush hush about their choice. It’s as if by sharing about it will influence someone else’s choice? Just a question if there is any group chat out there by area so we can share live status for various sch. Instead of running here and there.

Will you be thinking of Maris Stella in 2B if St Gabriel is not safe in 2C?

Sometimes we forgotten the things we have in our hands.

Anyway, it depends on you are gg to choose for balloting or not. To take the risk in 2B (Maris Stella gg for balloting) would mean St Gabriel as 2C choice and you need to add in Monfort as 2Cs backup.

There are some threads by area, else you can consider starting a new thread of your interest area.

I am sure everyone can relate better in the chat since they are in the same situation.

Live update can either relieve stress or increase stress. If you ever sit at the school during the last hour of a very hotly contested school, you would witness the facial expression of those parents waiting with every other parent who come to the school. Daggers eyes, eyes that can shoot 飞镖
