Total registered: 98 (all within 1 km radius)
87 Citizens

Probability of getting ballotted in: 50%

Parents who are not successful in the ballot at 9am on Friday 13 Aug have to register their child in another school with vacancies in Phase 2C supplementary on Wed 18 August.

Wow! There are only left 28 vacancies at kheng cheng. These 50% of unsuccessful parents, probably 50% of them will have to choose first toa payoh or guang yang later if unable to get into kheng cheng at 2c sup!

I think those with girls may go Marymount. Not only Kheng Cheng. Marymount also not bad. I will go for Marymount in 2C supp if mine is a girl. Too bad mine's not.

Now left with 5 from >2KM.... what they waiting for?? No chance to ballot also... DUH...
And today is last day for Phase 2C???

Guess those 5 are really busy people. No time to call school for updates, no time to check website, and no time to withdraw and apply another school. They wasted their 2C chance like that. I think MSH's service was already very good coz their website had updates every 5mins on the status of applicants. Also, those 1-2kmers all rushed in at the last minute when their 1st choice schools were full.

So KS parents win at the end of the day?
