Hi,
We are SC >2km from Marymount Convent, using it as our backup option. Based on data, it’s ok between 2014 - 2017, does anyone have last year’s data pls? Any kind advice about the school being a backup option in 2CS appreciated too! Thanks!

last year, left 11 after 2C. then in 2Cs 27 go for 11 spots. balloting is for >2km.

marymount gets spill over from Ai Tong and Peichun, and other corners of Singapore! It is actually a good school and a solid plan B.

As in previous years, some CHIJs (except TPY and SN) might see a jump in numbers tomorrow, after the parents "recee-ed" their options.

If the school comes to balloting, will the staff disclose how many applicants and vacancies left to ballot?

If you stick your butt there and stay inside the registration room at closing time 4.30pm, they will announce. If they don’t, just ask them before you pack up and leave.

Don’t forget this crucial step. Otherwise, you will be in ignorant torment until next Wednesday.

last 30 mins can quite a sight sometimes. and last 5mins, some may need to bite their nails or chew their hands.
Then when the registration close and you know you are through, please enjoy the moment, because the torture will begin next year when the P1 starts.

Can I ask the gurus if last day will there be a lot of changes to the numbers?

Here's some data derived from 2018 (if similar pattern holds).

New Borns:
2012: 42,663\t(SC+PR)
2013: 39,654 (SC+PR)

Vacancies:
2018: 41,820 (800 less than new borns)
2019: 39,058 (600 less than new borns)

Registered after 2B:
2018: 23,002 (53.9% of new borns)
2019: 21,148 (53.3% of new borns)

Registered after 2B + Applied at 2C:
2018: 38,542 (90.3% of new borns)
2019: ~35808 (Expected, assuming 90.3% of new borns)

As of today (Day2 @ 2C), total registered after 2B + Applied at 2C Day2:
2019: 34505

So if my assumption is right, we shall still expect around 1,300 new registrations (35808-34505) on the last day of 2C.

We will verify the data tmr!

FYI:
Registered after 2C + Applied at 2CS:
2018: 38,622

Thank you for this data.

Is the reason why there are fewer vacancies than births because some children are residing overseas and won't be attending schools in Singapore?
