2011 P1 Registration Exercise for 2012 In-Take

[i3mum]

Hi alng,


I see, in this case, may have to monitor to see how many within 1km & within 2km for phase 2B before deciding.

Do you have another school for backup plan?

alng:

No, I am outside 2km and have all along been prepared to ballot at phase 2B. From last 2 years' of stats, there is a high chance of getting in at phase 2B even with balloting. But it is different now. My estimation for Rulang this year is as follows:

Total - 270
Phase 1 - 138
Phase 2A - 78 (estimate to be the same as 2010 and 2009)
Phase 2B - 27 (there are 51 PVs this year. Looks like balloting will be conducted at within 1 km now.)
Phase 2C – 27

Is Pioneer or Xingnan near your place? Maybe can consider those as back-ups for P2C. At least it ensures you get a place in P2C phase and not till P2C supp

Hi i3mum,
Fortunately, yes I have a backup plan, which is an equally competitive school at phase 2b. Expecting to ballot too so crossing my fingers now. Praying hard now.

Dear all,


If applicants under P2B not successful, are they given privileged in P2C?
I assumed so, since phases are prioritise based on nearest to furthest btw home to school.

Hmm.. heart sank looking at Nam Hua

thks

HI alng,


That's good. Just have to pray hard.

Hi Pen88n,

Pioneer is within 1 km but I am not sure about Xingnan. I am within 1 km of the popular Westgrove but the chance of getting in at phase 2C 1 km is less than 50%. Not too sure if my heart can take that kind of excitement! LOL

There will be no privilege for applicants who are not successful in P2B (in the event of balloting). They can still apply under P2C but if demand is more than supply then the distance criteria will come into play, <1km, 1-2km and >2km

No. When it comes to P2C, the only way to have a higher chance of getting into the school is based on distance.

Unfortunately no privilege for P2C. P2c is purely based on distance from school. If you are under P2B and beyond 2km thus can't get in, and P2C is filled with applicants within 1km, you will not even have a chance to ballot.

[alng]

This is my estimation for Nanhua this year:

Total - 240
Phase 1 - 109
Phase 2A - 70 (average of 2010 and 2009)
Phase 2B - 31
Phase 2C – 30

Anyone knows the number of PVs this year? I try to call the school but the person in charge is in a meeting. I am not sure if they will give me the number.
