I think “high chance” is difficult to define. SC > 2km is very likely going to face balloting. If you are comfortable with that, go ahead.

SC >2km 2C ballot at RGPS is a certainty (if it happens at all). Its either no chance or low chance because many parents from all corners of Singapore will be checking the final count before submitting their application. RGPS is a GEP school after all.

If the odds are good, more will try, if odds are poor, many will give up. Then again, like the lottery, there will always be winner(s) regardless of odds.

Number of Vacancies under Phase 2C in Year 2022 : 90

Number of Applicants under Phase 2C in Year 2021 : 116 for 97 places, ballot SC > 2km
Number of Applicants under Phase 2C in Year 2020 : 176 for 77 places, ballot SC < 1km
Number of Applicants under Phase 2C in Year 2019 : 172 for 123 places, ballot SC > 2km
Number of Applicants under Phase 2C in Year 2018 : 164 for 114 places, ballot SC > 2km[/quote]

More critically, the info in red since there is a fair bit of 'noise' among the number of applicants, especially when a lot of places are available.

90 places available would be somewhere between 2020 and 2021. However, unlike 2020 and 2021, there are a lot of appealing options as the minimum places for primary schools is now 40, instead of 20. While trend suggest that it is likely to be balloting for SC > 2km, how many SC > 2km going for the balance (after SC < 2km have taken up the spaces) is anyone's guess. How does one define \"high chance\"?

My suggestion would be if there are options for those in the > 2km, do consider them. IMHO, one appealing option for SC > 2km would be SMPS, and if you are further to the east, CHIJ (Katong).

So crazy this year, sc < 1km confirmed bollating, and the number of this category is still increasing in the last day …
