LKVM:
those who register on 1st day mainly those who quite sure can get into the sch. Or high chance of success in balloting. Form the bulk of the registrants.[email protected]:
from past experience, are there many people who register on 2nd or 3rd day?
Most ppl do on the 1st day then second most on the 3rd day last half time
those who register on 3rd day mostly those who are still sitting on the fence, weighing the probability of getting into their choice schs. That's explains the last minute registration on 3rd day.
those on 2nd day -> not free to go on first day. :? -
Just called SCGS. Apparently as at mid day, there are 51 applicants liao.
As at yesterday, there are 48 applicants - 45 within 1 km, 3 is 1 to 2km.
So, more or less confirmed there is balloting liao – just not sure if it is at 1km or 1 to 2 km!! -

it is hard to imagine that there are so many 6 yr olds living within 1 km of SCGS! It's not exactly a cheap housing area.

Seeing pictures of those packed showrooms....residents in SG (citizens/PR/foreigners) all very rich I think.

I think it is more of the up and coming projects... This is where maybe MOE really needs to rethink the policy of allowing those who bought uncompleted projects compete with those already living within 1km of the school. The initial financial commitment for an uncompleted project is much smaller than for a completed project.

JMHO. -
