Hi cwc , few of my DS' P4 schoomates/classmates got into 2nd round as well . He could not believe it, as he did not complete all the Questions.
Btw,once got in will be given honorable mention at least ?

Results for NMOS preliminary round should be out this week I think.....

Anyone knows what is the percentage of students that is invited to the special round compared to the whole cohort? If the child gets into special round, does that mean assured of a silver/gold?
Thanks.

Not directly related but might be useful for curious parents
2007 / 2008 / 2009
Gold 51 / 56 / 62
Silver 267 / 288 / 336
Bronze 460 / 476 / 538
Honourable Mention 830 / 616 / 1081
Participation 2235 / 2735 / 2902
Total 3843 / 4171 / 4919


Gold 1.33% / 1.34% / 1.26%
Silver 6.95% / 6.90% / 6.83%

If I am not wrong, getting into special round should guarantee at least a silver.

Maths hub just called me and told me my son got into the 2nd round. He is the only one got into 2nd round in his school. The namelist has not been put on NUSH webside, so I can not see on the website.

My ds, p4 last year, got bronze but did not get into 2nd round.

[Flowermonaster]

8228, I believed he got in 2nd round this year rite? Saw ur previous post asking time & venue. Think venue should be NUS high, time don't know yet. Think when DS come back from school today will check if his Math teacher gave him any information on the venue & time.
