Hello everyone. I am back. I went window shopping instead of waiting at home :lol: waited till 430pm only called the school. As expected, my boy does not have lucky draw luck (it runs in the family) so we have to go through registration process again next week. This time at AMK. Oh well. May be just not meant to be so we already prepared. Will pray that whatever school my da ends up with, he will be happy there.Wonder if Rejoice's ds got into CHS... no news... maybe she's busy celebrating? Hello Rejoice?? Do update us k?
Anyone else got into Cat Hi? The magnificent 9? -

:imsorry: At least you can tell yourself that you tried. Many of us chickened out of even trying for CHS. We all tell ourselves that it is God's will. I am still convincing myself that we went to another school for the badminton CCA (which CHS does not offer). No matter wat school our kids end up in, we kiasuparents will still give them the best and help them succeed wherever they are.
Good Luck at Phase 2C Supp and may you be spared the anguish of balloting.

Yes, now I can tell my ds that I tried my best. Now it is his turn to try his best if he wants to go CHS stillAt least you can tell yourself that you tried.

I also prayed before that it is God's Will that we gave CHS two chances. Hope I did not misinterpret HIM
I also need to pray hard that I be spared the anguish of balloting again
don't think can take it the 3rd time. So do hope that all those fall out from balloting today do not all flock to the AMK school of my choice next :xedfingers:
Wow, you already know which CCA you want to kid to join before P1? I still hope that my ds will try a few and find out what he likes eventually. -
If you apply in both Phase 2B and 2C and you are a Catholic, you can try to put your DS on CH wait list.
And hope they will call you up.
If not, wait for end P1 for your kid to get and check if you can transfer, if not try end P2, if not try GEP end P3, etc. -

Wow, it's like hitting TOTO... they must be ecstatic!
But after a challenging time coaching my ds in Chinese yesterday, I now wonder whether the kids who fought so hard to get into the top schools can all excel in there... guess we won't know till they try
DS almost made me vomit blood...
-
Me too, been vomitting blood for a long time.. :roll:
MSH is also a SAP school right ? Chinese is also in 1st lang
I'm now thinking that I must be nicer to my neighbour, so next year onwards can share test/exam papers with her...hahaha...super kiasu -
from p1 to p3, there is not much difference between those taking chinese as a first lang and those as a second lang. Just learn a few more words which those taking as second lang will eventually learn a few months later.
As for test papers, just buy the whole stack from those selling exam papers. they deliver to your house also. cheap and convenient. no need to photostat. -

But then again... MOE is coming out with different mode of assessment right?
