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!

Can refer to booklist in their website,

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

my child got AL9 for psle, but she wants to attend mgs. is there still a chance for her to get into the express stream in mgs and then change to ip in sec3?

Hi,

I went through the past postings but didn’t see much postings regarding MGS O level track.

Wonder if anyone can share information on the O level track such as:

A. No. or percentage of non-affliated students admitted in past years eg. 2022, 2021?

B. While I understand that IB and O level are different, will students pursuing at O level be given opportunities (eg. Certain worksheets for IB students) at Yr 1 or 2 to experience what the IB students are going through? So as to get a feel should they will like to apply for IB at Yr 2.

3. As there is a chance to move from O level to IB at year 2, does this means the curriculum for the first 2 years are similar? If not, what are the delta eg project work?

Thank you in advance

NYGHS and RGS are also balanced but much more intense. MGS is less intense and acceleration is manageable, so there's slightly more social life. They are a Methodist mission school, so religion is ever-present as a necessary inclination; however, religious activity is not constantly at the forefront.
