Once people had failed balloting in Phase 2C, Phase 2C Supplementary become more intense.It is like \"没鱼虾也好\" where schools like GESPS, BRPS, QPS or NTPS all suddendly become \"抢手货“

Hi, is it true that schools like QPS and NTPS get all snapped up during Phase 2C supp?

Based on last year's stats, both QPS and NTPS still had vacancies left after phase 2C (supp), no need to ballot at all. But they have reduced 30 places from each school this year.

Hi Rena,

What do you want to know about GESP? I think I’ve posted quite a lot of ‘insider’ information about the school in my previous replies to all mummies already. However, if you have anymore doubts, I would be glad to assist if I can.

QPS also has decreased the vacancies level. Maybe Phase 2C these 2 schools would have balloting since there would be some parents enroll in Phase 2C to avoid it.

Wow... think this year is gonna be stressful.
Now I dunno if I should go for RV for just NTPS liao.

For 2c supp, it's first come first serve?

Rena:

My concern is that whether GESPS is it good or not? If you tell people around...it seem that it is not that impressive.....I'm rather worry that I might make a wrong choice....

Hi Rena!

Looking at the number of places available in RMPS, you may need to be adventurous if you want to try this school. From Lill's information so far, GESPS seems alright. Its results may not be as good as RMPS or Zhang De, but this may be due to the fact that it is a new school.

Lill's son has done very well in school so far. If he continues to maintain his standard, who knows, he may qualify for GEP and till then, he will have the option of transferring to other schools. :celebrate:

No, that is only for phase 3

Hi qms,

Well, hope that my son really can maintain his 'standard'. I'm already having the stress for CA2 now. The test will be held in mid Aug but don't think it'll be that simple cos the topics covered are definitely more difficult so don't expect too much. Just hope that he can continue to achieve Band 1 in all subjects. :lol:

Oops. Sorry got a little confused liao.
Which means 2C and 2C supp, depending on vacancies available, there might/might not be balloting? And once balloting is decided, it will then depend on the proximity of your residence to the school of choice. Is that understand correct?
