      In that case,


      since u mentiond had already written the email to MGS Secondary school to inquire,
      then
      tomorrow Monday morning -

      Just call up the school directly and request to speak to that unique, particular DSA officer, in charge of STEM domain (MGS).

      1) Tell GO (General Office) Admin that this is a follow up phone call, because u have already sent in your email.

      2) If the Admin GO officer said the Officer in charge of STEM is busy, cannot take your phone call right now,

      then

      Just leave behind your handphone number, convey the message to GO Admin -

      to request this STEM Officer in charge to return u a call. And when this Officer call u back, ask all those " burning " questions that u have, concerning STEM domain (MGS).

      After gathered the answer, if the other IP-A-level Sec school also offer your daughter a CO, no need to make decision now. Wait until her psle exam over by first week of October, then sit down with her and discussed :- she prefer the IB track (MGS) or she prefer A level track ?
      If not sure, can google the advantages of IB vs. A-Level.

      However, if this STEM CO is for IB track, it is great, go for it!

      If this MGS CO for STEM is for O level, not for IB, and if the other IP offer is for A-Level, then u ask her :-

      3) does she want to take O level ?
      If don’t want, prefer to skip O level, then just accept the IP A level JC (CO).

      Unless u have the intention to bring her overseas to study in UK / USA / Australia, after her O level, for some bridging programme overseas, before she start her university faculty course / programme. Some people do this, bec they can cut short their university programme, by one year. That means, graduate earlier, from uni.

          A question for parents of upper sec girls: What E Maths and A Maths text books does MGS ‘O’ level track use? Can you give me the titles? Thanks!


          My husband has been asked to help someone who has done badly in Sec 3 E & A Maths. So he needs to see what is in the current syllabus!

            Good for your husband to chip in to help. My post PSLE math has been returned long ago to the teachers 😂

                        Hi,


                        My gal is interested in MGS IB. She has gotten AL4 which was a pleasant shock to us. We weren’t prepared for her getting this score, hence we did not pay much attention to the top schools during the open houses.

                        Can any kind soul give an insight to the school life. I understand it is a more balanced approach, compared to NYGH or RGS which are more academically demanding.

                        Also, is MGS very religiously inclined? Religious activity everyday?

                        TIA
