Hi, I am new in this forum. Heard from my friend that I can get some advice from expert here.

My dd got 252+3. Looking at the COP, she is at the border line to get into IP. Any advice on the choice of school? Btw, we are staying at Hougang

Can try the following:

CHIJ St. Nicholas Girls' School IP SAP (255)
Cedar Girls' Secondary School IP (253)
Singapore Chinese Girls School IP (252)
CHIJ St. Nicholas Girls' School SAP (253)
Singapore Chinese Girls School \t(252)

Am not sure if u prefer IP or OP, depends if u prefer 6 year (A level) or traditional 4+2 year (O level n A level or even to poly etc) track.

But at hougang, nearby u can consider cedar girls (o n ip), plmgs (o), chij toa payoh (o). For sap school (take advantage of your bonus 3 points in hcl), can even try st nich (o n ip). I m only looking at girls school, co ed there maybe more (eg andersen). Many good schools around. So really u have to weigh the pros n cons. Go with the strategy that someone recommended, first 2 choices maybe ur dream school that is plus 1-3 above last year cop. Next 2-3 choices around the cop. Just make sure last choice is a school that is 6-10 below cop to be safe, else if u fail to get in all 6 choices...u will have to go to any school that moe despatches u to nearest.

Hi, first time mummy to P6 kid. Want to seek advice if this is a suitable way for sec school selection if score is 241.
First 3 selections @ 242 (CGS, CCHM, SM)
Last 3 selections @238, 236 and 234 COP

Would it be too much a risk to put 3 selections with 1 pt higher than 2018 COP and would it be safe to stop at 234 COP?
Thanks

i think stop at 234 is ok.

Thanks Timmy21......I had a hard time deciding the schools as they are either too far or not what my DD wants.

Not sure if the chances to enter 242 schools are high. I'm just wondering if I would be wasting a lot of chances if I choose 3 schools at 242. (Any comments? Anyone?)

Seems like the elites have performed well, just wondering how did the mid-levels do or will the mid-levels get pushed out if the elites can't get a place in where they want to go.

Hi Panic123,

Let your daughter try

SCGS / St Nick ( IP or OP). High chance to enter

Her Higher Chinese (distinction: +3), is strong. She is strong in languages, can tell that she is a language girl, so apply (make use of) her strength

Hougang : got St Nick school bus one way, in the morning, to fetch your girl.


St Nick have (5 IP + 5 OP) classes, Total is 10 classes.

We will spread up, all the \"old\" St Nick girls into various 10 classes, so that the Non-affliates also can get to know them. Everyone start afresh, from ground (base) zero, 2020 Sec 1. Everyone make new friends, from day 1, Term 1

We do [u] Not [/U] group by Tscore.
All 10 classes are \"mixed ability\"

[smileplease]

hi all, i am new to this website and i would appreciate your answers .i scored 247 and i am having a hard time deciding between Nan Chiau High (COP 2018: 244) and Maris Stella (COP 2018 :237). Both are SAP schools. I like Maris stella's programmes but i feel Nan Chiau high would push me academically. Distance isn't a problem for me.Which one should i put as my first choice?TIA

I have PMed you.
