My DD got AL9. Here’s our choices:


1. MGS O Lvl (COP
2. Crescent (COP 11)
3. Fairfield (COP 11)
4. St. Margaret (COP 11)
5. Nanhua (COP 11)
6. Commonwealth (COP 12)

1. What are the chances of getting into choice #1? Heard that MGS P6 didn’t do so well this year?
2. Does our choices #4 to 6 make sense? Our logic is to put the schools with higher COP in case she doesn’t get into choices #1 to 3. Many thanks dear parents & experts!

Good day to all parents! I was wondering if I could share a google form here for current secondary school students. Each year, parents have a headache trying to search for reviews of secondary school so if there could be a google form for secondary students to fill out and the answers could be shared with parents, I wonder if that would be helpful.

If you like the idea, could you kindly share the following link with other parents so that it could reach out to as many secondary school students as possible? It would. be wonderful if there could be kind souls who are willing to share honest reviews about their schools.

TJC cop is AL9.[/quote]

TJC 2020 COP was 250 or AL9.

In t-score term, AL9 is around 245 and above, while AL11 is around 235 and above.

Even at AL9, the balloting risk may already be very high because now applicants with t-score as low as 235 (if there is a AL6 subject) can apply to TJC

So my recommendation is dont waste your first choice.

2020 NYGH COP was 259+2 or AL7(M).

Why 259 is AL7 and not AL6, that is a little puzzling because RI 259 and MGS 257 were both AL6.

So for 2021, it's highly possible that NYGH may be bumped up to AL6 because AL6 with lower t-score of say 257 will be placed ahead of A7(D)
