DS got a WL offer. Anyone knows what's the typical chances of a WL converted to CO for SST? He really hopes to go in as he wants to pursue applied learning.

i think this really depends if the ones who get COs did accept SST, as some might have 3 COs for all the school they applied for. if they decide to go for other school, SST will probably gave it to the next waiting list.

monday starts later. i do heard of a parent who stays in sembawang uses private bus. i stay sembawang too. but we send our son to school in the morning, and he will take public transport back after school.

private bus bus might need to wake up earlier, if the bus have to travel a few locations to fetch other students.
at present, my son wakes up at 635am on mon and 550am on tue. enough time to bath and eat something before leaving the house.

Thanks Cheryl for sharing.

Right now, wife is still supportive of sending son to school for probably the first 6-12 months - say can give him more rest time. I will ask around on the private bus arrangements in the meantime.

your son's chance of his WL getting converted into CO, will depend on

1) Total number of COs (SST) given up


And


2) your son's ranking,
inside the Wait-list (SST)


Who will have such info ?
only Admin office (SST).

you may approach them personally, see if they can divulge any info

Thank you!

Got the CO for SST as well.

Any parents using private bus transport for the morning trip from Yishun/north area to SST?

The morning trips are probably fixed in timing. For the return trips, perhaps my son will take the public transport back or get mummy to pick him up.

Hi cherylkjh,
May I know if your son travels to school by public transport or your own private car? I am trying to estimate the travel time to SST.

[maelyn]

For parents who currently have children in SST, do you mind share if there is any difference for the student life in SST pre-pandemic and post-pandemic? Does the group work get lesser? Any changes to the "application" method of study?

I am trying to estimate the travel time to SST.[/quote]in the morning, my hb will send him to school in our car. if 730am need reach school, they usually leave around 640? the traffic is usually quite smooth. so he will reach early abit.

after school, he take public transport, is roughly 1hr 15mins. because still need take bus from mrt to home.
