[quote=\"Kelly9113\"]What is the difference between putting a school as ur 1st choice and putting a school as ur 6th choice??? :?:

Hi Kelly,

All posting is based on merit. So it doesn't matter whether you put that school as 1st choice or 6th choice. If you meet the COP, you will get in. Only difference is, if you put at 6th choice and if you happen to meet the COP of any of the 5 choices above this choice, you get into the school of earlier choice first.

Thanks lizawa,

But if the COP for my second choice is higher than my first choice, then will the school of my second choice choose me instead of my first choice?????[/quote]If you get a place for your 1st choice than 2nd - 6th choice don't apply anymore. To give your 2nd choice more hope than you can put RGS or RI as your 1st choice. :lol:

My son scored 258+2 HMT. My dream choices are RI and HCI. Which one should I put first? We are not chinese family. My third choice may be ACSI (IP).

Hi all,


Can anyone englighten on Chung Cheng High Main? Is it a good sch? Despite SAP, it is a band 3 sch. I am worried abt its high emphasis on Chinese, not sure if my son is able to cope as his HMT is also not very strong. I visited the sch, it is quite old and run down but currently undergoing rebuilding and improvising the existing sch.

actually, to me, i think they are popular, but i don't really think it is a good school... but their chinese is strong. same, i went to the school, i felt that the school is very run down and old, that will make the children not have to feeling to study.

But they are renovating which means the place will look cleaner! so i think it might be good. U may have a different view of it, but that's my opinion.

It looks run down becos they are renovating. I went for the open house. Like the environment and the holistic programmes, so did my dd.
I guess they have not not been putting a lot of emphasis on the academic for the past few years. I heard that the principal is re-focusing on the academics again.

It depends on what u want for your child. I prefer a holistic environment when my child can enjoy school life and learning instead of just academic-focused.

JMHO.

[quote=\"ahque\"]need some good advices.


my ds had fever during psle, with special consideration of 4 points, he has 232. goin to appeal for sst as he didnt manage to clear e 2nd around. now, we are struggling as to which schools to choose. seems like too risky to put sji as 1st choice, but we can only appeal if we put sji as 1st choice rite? our choices :-

1st choice - sji
2nd choice - maris stella / nan chiau
3rd choice - clementi town
4th choice - ?
5th choice - ?
6th choice - ?

we are staying at bt timah.

Hi ahque
You seem to be in the same situation as Parentof3's friend. (or are you the friend he/she is talking about)?

My advice for your son is to forget SJI.
232 is 9 points away from last year's COP for SJI (241). Even with affiliation, SJI's COP last year was 238. Don't waste your 1st choice in this manner.

Your son can consider MS as his 1st choice instead since his Tscore meets last year COP for MS. This would be a more realistic approach. Hope this helps.

PS: Besides MS, there's also St Andrew's (233). In fact, St Andrew's would be a better choice than SJI (241). Do consider.

LOL.. yes, she's my friend...
We did talk about St Andrew's but it's a bit too far. How about the last 3 choices? Any suggestions?[/quote]tks maisy. hehehe been askin my dear friend parentof3 til she had to ask for more advices.

no doubt st andrew is a better choice the banding is 7.

:roll: now more like :-

1. maris stella
2. clementi town

4 choices to go ya. stil need more thinkin ya.

Anyone knows the top score for PSLE at CHIJ Toa Payoh Pri? I tried asking the parents network but so far nobody knows.


Thinking of sending my kid to that school but now hesitating…

What is the difference between putting a school as ur 1st choice and putting a school as ur 6th choice??? :?:

School posting is based on merit according to three criteria: 1) pupils' PSLE Results, 2) their choices of schools and 3) the vacancies available in the schools.

A pupil who has performed better in the PSLE will have priority over another pupil who has not performed as well. The first pupil will be admitted first, subject to the availability of vacancies in the selected school. The second pupil will then be considered. If there is no more vacancy, the second pupil will be considered for his next choice school, again subject to the vacancies available in that school.
