smurf:

I don't think I want to take the risk and move there and ended up no place...then have to move again?? :?

smurf,
the risk of not getting into the school of choice is always there for Phase 2B onwards - especially in catholic schs cos you won't know the takeup rate for catholic/church members. that's why must always have backup plan/sch.

[smurf]

oh dear…in the midst of selling my place…just dunno where to move now…Bishan (where cat high is, but need balloting), or near SJIJ (which we qualify for 2A).


dilemma dilemma.

dilemma dilemma.

is that a dilemma? :?
what is your hesitation for SJIJ???

[smurf]

I want Cat high. and also, partly because houses near SJIJ is not cheap. if we can get in cat high, then no need to buy so expensive house just to be near SJIJ. Distance to me is very important.

[KSP]

For Cat high, only 1, 2A1 & 2A2 no ballot, there will be balloting even for within 1km for 2B and 2C.

[smurf]

yup, that’s why don’t want to take the risk. I don’t want to end up buying a place nearby and then no place.still have to travel. not worth the risk.

[KSP]

But there is no chance at all if not within 1km. This is like buying a chance just to qualify for balloting.

[smurf]

that’s why not buying after all.haha.

Depends if joing the PSG counts towards your eligibility for Phase 2B. Call up the school directly and ask. They will tell you in 2 seconds.
