End of the day, you won't know how many places are left in 2B, after Phase 1 and 2A. Plus the number of GRL plus clan/church members.

My advice will be to choose a school with no clan or church associations and do PV there. Then you only have GRL to contend with.

Best to choose a school within 1km too to increase your chances should there be need of a ballot.

most schools are already single session


and for those that are not, not all are taking the cutting number of classes route. Some are upgrading their school premise to have more classes.

Of course.

I was just caught out this year at HPPS cos when we met the principal, he says they are ungrading the premises so no need to cut intake but in the end, MOE still decided to cut intake by 1 class this year.

So you never know...

[tankee]

then the cutting of intake is not due to need to reduce number of class to go single session but due to estimated number of applicants in that area this year. kind of balancing supply & demand stuff, which they do every year.

OIC

Then the supply is always not enough cos the demand is always high! :rotflmao:

[tankee]

they go by total places in the area, not by particular.


no way they can increase places of popular schools to meet all demands, then might as well all other less popular schools change name to that of the popular school.
