      Any idea what's happened to those net 5 students who got balloted out of NYJC Sci but put NYJC arts as 2nd choice? Do they get to transfer to Sci stream? Technically met the COP, wonder if sch allows such scenario?
      Totally disbanded, this year.

      If you are a 2024 nett 6 Arts pupil who entered by Arts stream but want to do Science stream inside NYJC this year, Sorry, not allowed anymore. No more so called \"flexible\" subject combination anymore.

      If you still want to do Science stream,
      then,

      u would have appealed to more than one JCs, and would have received your appeal result (news), by now. Those whose appeal was successful, they have already transfered out of NYJC.

      In fact, by Thursday (8 Feb),
      the JC (1) batch of students have also been informed, what is their 2024 subject combination allocated by NYJC. The only thing that is still unknown, is only their class called CT, which will be released when they go back to school, next week.

      Example

      Inside one single PCME subject combination, there are a lot of CTs. When they go back to school next week, school (NYJC) will then release news to them : which CT group are they allocated to.

      But as far as the 2024 JC (1) subject combination is concerned, the students themselves,

      both from (Arts + Science) stream, have already been informed by school, whether they have gotten what they wanted, or not. This, has been settled.

      Conclusion
      =========

      If you are in Arts stream, the very most u can do is \"hybrid\" subject combination. That is : (2 Arts + one Maths + one Science). That's all !
      You are not allowed to take up PCME nor BCME, anymore. If you still want this, Sorry, by now, you would have already appealed to more than one JC for Science stream, and by now, the JCs would also have informed you, of the Appeal outcome : Yes or No.

        So do take note,


        for next year’s batch intake of 2025 JC(1) applicants, born in the year 2008, applying for NYJC.
        Take a leaf, learn from this year (born in 2007) students.
        So, DON’T go and put

        first choice (NYJC Science) and
        second choice (NYJC Arts), anymore.
        No more loop hole !

        One more thing.
        If your L1R5 nett is 5 or 6,

        It is actually safer to apply for

        Eunoia JC (Science), instead of
        Nanyang JC (Science).
        Why ?

        Because some nett 5 students, also cannot get in for Science. If your nett score is exactly equal to the Cut off point for that stream, some students failed to get in during balloting, for those last few number of seats left.
        Because

        majority of the seats have already been snapped up by the nett 3 and nett 4 students

          Hi @phtthp, someone reported the following:
          \"Net 5 scorers still get admitted to Nyjc.
          Admission is by Merit.
          \"

          Can you please confirm your findings? Thank you.

            Hi, actually there are a number of Nett 5 in my child’s PCME CT so I think it is fine for a nett 5 to place NY Science as first choice. However, if the child only want to get into science stream, do not put NY Arts as 2nd choice but EJC/ VJC/ NJC (Science) as backup.


            I can’t be sure if there are 2 vacancies left, who will enter first? Both the S’porean will be accepted first?

            6-1 (PR)
            7-2 (S’porean)
            9-4 (S’porean)

              Merit should come first, base on gross score? The PR and gross 7 sporean would fill up the remaining 2 vacancies?

                In the hypothetical, the two Singaporeans will get posted in.

                From MOE’s website:

                Who gets priority when two applicants have the same net aggregate score?
                If you have the same net aggregate score as another applicant and vying for the last place in a course, posting will be determined by citizenship status, in this order:

                Singapore Citizens (SC)
                Permanent Residents (PR)
                International students
                If both of you have same citizenship, e.g., SC, the one with a better gross aggregate score will be posted to the course.

                If there is still a tie, a computerised ballot will decide the posting outcome.

                      In your example above , these 3 candidates all have the same, identical nett 5.

                      Hence, Sg citizenship priority takes precedence. The last 2 seats will go to the two SCs. But one will enter first, before the other. The better the Raw score, this person will enter , first. So,

                      7-2 (SC) will enter first, before the next one, 9-4 (SC).

                      SC : Singapore Citizenship student (pupil)

                        Hi Chief,


                        Every JAE batch of students differ.
                        Differ, in terms of ?

                        - differ in the Total number of applicants, who have met the Cut off point (COP), for that stream.

                        - differ in the Total number of vacancies, left.

                        For this year 2024, COP for NYJC (Science) is nett 5.

                        ==≈=====≈=====≈==============

                        Example
                        =======

                        say, there are Total five JAE candidates (applicants), fighting for the last 3 seats, left.
                        Who will get to occupy, these last 3 seats ?

                        Suppose there are 5 candidates :-

                        1) 7 - 3 (say, a PR) = nett 4

                        2) 6 - 1 (PR) = nett 5

                        3) 7 - 2 (PR) = nett 5

                        4) 7 - 2 (SC) = nett 5

                        5) 9 - 4 (SC) = nett 5

                        =============≈===========

                        Answer

                        1) goes by \"Merit\".
                        So, the first seat will go to the one ... with nett 4 first. Happen that this person is a PR. With nett 4, he has a better score than those with nett 5. So, this PR enter first.

                        In other words,
                        as long as you are one point better than the COP for that stream, you can enter. In this case, nett 4 Is one point better than nett 5. So, nett 4 will enter, first !


                        2) the rest, applicants ( #2 to #6 ) : all have the same, identical nett score (nett 5).

                        So, what happen ?

                        Singapore Citizenship (SC) comes first.
                        Only applicants ( #4 and #5) are SCs.
                        Thus,

                        2nd last seat goes to applicant #4, because he got a better Raw score of (7 - 2), than

                        applicant #5 (Raw 9 - 4). Both of them are SCs & both are nett 5.


                        https://www.moe.gov.sg/post-secondary/admissions/jae/explore-pathways-and-understand-posting-process/how-posting-works



                        End up, what happen?

                        Those two PR applicants (#2 and #3), didn't get in. So, what can they do ? Appeal !
