Got into the same sch tat rejected your PV?

what's their reasons for rejecting PV? I can tell based on my last session that the school looks for \"effectively billingual\" and flexible timing

Got rejected in 2005 when son was in K1. Then last min called me to ask if still keen. Son is in P5 now.
Was easier then, not many condos around...even if don't make it to be PV under 2B, can still get into school under 2C. Now cannot liao.

Go for P2C I guess?[/quote]If application to be PV fails, then go for 2C...but if staying more than 1km for some schools, then don't think of it.
However, no guarantee getting into school under 2B either.
Have backup plan.

Now parents staying so near school very stressed bcos balloting takes place for those staying within 1km.
