Thanks so much mrswongtuition for the great tips! I agree going for PLMGS may be a bit risky since we are more than 2km away...


One additional quick question: does anyone have Marymount Convent's Phase2B statistics for the past 2-3 years?

Many thanks indeed and I feel really kiasu already :celebrate:

I thought I saw stars when there was a new link for 2011 registration. Don’t think PVs are shortlisted yet, so fast talking about P1 registration for next year ?

janet_lee88:

Registration for 2010 just closed and results of Phase 3 application aren't out yet...isn't it far too early to talk about next year's P1 registration. No need to be so kiasu even if we are at KSP.

Janet_lee88,

Actually, it's not too early to talk about 2011 registration now. Imagine those parents who applied for PVs, can they start talking about applying for PVs only now if they need to apply next year?

KSP.com is a platform for parents to share information and exchange pointers. I am sure many parents start shortlisting schools for their children at least one year before the registration. Rather than do things quietly, KSP.com hopes that parents are more willing to share with each other.

In addition, the discussion involves next year's registration, shouldn't we create a thread for it now, rather than allow parents to discuss such issues in other threads? It will benefit other members who are looking for information at a later date, too.

According to him, I also have $x millions of dollars stashed in my bank a/c.


Only problem is how come I can't find that elusive bank a/c leh?

:idea: Maybe it's with compliments from him, and he is your guardian now because you are \"underaged\"? :evil:

Thanks so much Orange Girl for the great help.


After checking out the graphs, maybe it is just me (well maths has always been my worst subject...) or is it correct to say that you stand almost 100% chance to get registered for CHIJ Toa Payoh and Marymount if you are in Phase2B & <2km (based on the statistics of the last 4 years).

I hope I am interpreting it correctly?

Based on this year's registration, balloting was required for those staying more than 2km. for Phase 2B (CHIJ TP). All the best.

janet_lee88:

If you have a secured place in CHIJ Katong under 2A, take it. St Nic has balloting for those staying within 1km every year. It's scary to give up your confirmed place for balloting.

In a dilemma because St Nick's supposed to be a better school and of course there is a secondary school affliation. The chance during balloting may be so-many percent but to the individual it is either 0 or 100% :stupid:

alng:

I would suggest you register and secure a place in CHIJ Katong under phase 2A first and then observe the situation at St Nicks before deciding whether to give up CHIJ Katong and register in St Nicks under phase 2B.

You mean we can take the phase 2A place and then give up later? Are the number of applicants published during each phase everyday so that we will know what is the risk for balloting?

siaokia:

Yes, as long as within one phase, you are registered in one school only.

siaokia:

Number of applicants is updated daily. However, what should be of interest to you is the number of applicants within a particular distance category because that determines whether you need to go through balloting. For the later piece of information, you can only find out from the school.
