Personal opinion:

At this stage, I think it does not matter if you have placed the school as 1st or 2nd choice. Rather what is the T-Score of your kid?

Called up the school and there’s still no update. The clerk said that all the forms have been passed to the principal and he’s still looking through. The earliest date to know the outcome of the appeal would be the 29th. Meanwhile, I’ve already bought the books for ds…

DS T score is very low so appealing with his competitive sport. I hope the schools are not really going to inform us late into Jan. I'll have to buy DS uniform of posted sch by this wk end so that he doesn't feel out in new school even though waiting for appeal.

Have received call from RI yesterday about appeal success. I think you should call them to ask. There are some people reqiured to take GAT today. They are processing last batch. If I'm not wrong they have approved all GEP boys who DSAed into another school and scored 260 and above.

Congrats...

Just call and was told that the result will be out by 29 Dec (standard reply per website info) and did not indicate there is another way to check...

Anymore suggestion??? Walk in to find out --- but they are on half day today

[/quote]Have you receive any news from RI. My son 263 too but no news yet.
