I respect the effort, yet it's unclear to me why and how even the school staff may have this detail when they're mostly divorced and disengaged from the registration process which unlike previous years is only online this time.

I don't think it matters about the process at this point. Judging from multiple chatgroups, there are kind school admins who will feedback on <1km, 1-2km, SPR applications. It has been fairly accurate for the last 2days in terms of overall applicants reported by school admin vs online.

It really depends on how you want to see things

Sch admin, Group Chat and even in a forum like this, how much trust do you really place? Do you tilt towards being sceptical or its a leap of faith? At the end of it, if you dont trust, dont do that route. Alot of view can be alot of noises, you have to decipher between relevant info and noises.

For myself I helped more people that i do not know (like in here) than the people I know personally (effectively), sometimes i feel part of the reason is some people here really need help and came to this forum and got the answer that they need while on off-forum setting, my views actually weigh the same as anyone on the streets (to my family and friends).

Another part of the reason, is the decision and making choice, fixated or stubborn. This topic is for another day.[/quote]Yup I prefer not to trust. I'd go by logic, past trends and the updated rules. This could well be people manipulating information to influence others' choices (I hope not).

My opinion would be similar to Lexy and Davischew.

Queenstown at your distance, not very safe due to increasing demand from the <1km new properties near there.

2C: Henry Park

2CS: choose either BTPS or Clementi Pri (whichever is nearer for you)

after 2CS and before phase 3: MOE will either allocate you to Pei Tong or New Town (whichever is nearer for you)

I agree this makes sense. No reason not to first try for Henry Park.

Hi parents,

Yangzheng > 2km
HIPS 1-2km
Maris stella 1-2km
Xing hua 1km

Any hope for the first 3 schools?

Thanks all the experts for the valuble input.


You are all in line that Queenstown at over 2km is not a good bet.
Guess I will need to carry on with Henry Park as that is the only school within 1km. If failed, then Pei Tong as 2CS as it’s within 1 to 2km. Clementi I will have no chance at 2CS as I am over 2km. Believe those that fail balloting at Nanhua will fall in at Clementi at 2CS.

i wonder till date how many or what % of the applicants have not applied yet. Can we say the numbers yesterday are representative?

I sure hope so. It's dangerous to be adventurous when the time is so short and the subject so important. You can only strategize so much.

Maris Stella has balloted for within 1km for the past 2 years.

Those who don’t have any other choice <1km would have applied already.

Those who are still weighing their various choices, will wait till last day.
