Many Victoria JC students rejoice, at the new MRT station that is coming their way, soon.
mrt power...... not only can increase property prices but also improves cop..... haha..... -
This year (2024),
the two IB Independent schools (ACSI + SJI) have lowered their Cut off point (COP), for JAE admission.
The piggies batch (born in 2007), overall, has performed much better than the earlier born in 2006 batch. As such,
- IB (ACSI) has lowered from COP 5 points to 4 points nett, for admission.
- IB (SJI) has lowered from COP 7 points to 6 points nett, for admission.
===========================
Is not easy to score 4 points or 6 points, nett. Thus, students who are keen to pursue IB curriculum instead of A-level,
1) it may be easier to get into IB, at PSLE time (aged 12),
2) perhaps easier to seek transfer, at the end of Sec 2 into IB (ACSI / SJI), than to solely
depend (rely) on your O level results. -
I thought cop is more of a demand and supply thing, rather than the cohort performing better overall? Hypothetically, meaning to say if the 2 to 4 pointers today all choose YIJC, then YIJC will also become the top jc based on cop…

Depend on both factors

1) the performance of the overall cohort, plus
2) the demand, for that particular JC / IB / Polytechnic course -

It matters when balloting is required for the net aggregate score COP for a course in the JC. Citizenship status first. So if balloting is required for students with same citizenship status (e.g., SC), then yes, better gross aggregate score will be considered (i.e., 6-2 is better than 7-3 which is better than 8-4).
Was told, 6-2 is better than 8-4. -
Ya personally knew of one or two Humanities Program students in HCI accepted into Oxford last year.

TJC or Victoria - Which is a better suited JC for students looking to apply overseas for University ? Which school provided better guidance for higher education and University Applications ?

I'm a TJC alumni, but I think VJC may be more prestigious. However, it all boils down to the student and less on the school. If your son is outstanding in his JC, it will speak volumes, much more than the school itself.
