            Niccc, another very hot school also! Are you a methodist and can get into Phase 2B? They are balloting within 1-2km in 2B and 1km in 2C, which means you'll need to move there to get a chance to ballot...

              Tinkerbelle, wow your dd is doing PSLE this year? I can imagine how kan cheong it will be for us parents... how do u prepare her for that?

              Hi michyms,

              Yes, DD1 is sitting for her PSLE this year. Aiyoo, feel so old already. 😉

              She's doing lots of past year papers & work assigned by sch. When she can spare me the time, I'll let her do some of the assessment books I bought for her. Many are still untouched. Will eventually leave them for DD2. Hopefully, the syllabus won't change too much. :evil:

              I trust your DD will enjoy herself at MCS. 😄

                Definitely a hot sch and worth 'investing' in. Your DS will be have an affiliated sch all the way to JC. ACJC allows for 2 bonus points for all ACS boys. Ya, I know, that's very far down the road.....keke.

My friend was from ACS secondary and when he wanted to register his ds for primary, they told him that he cannot register as an old boy. Ether reason is because ACS primary and ACS secondary is not considered a fill school unlike places like maris Stella etc. But the secondary is affiliated to the JC.

                    Good to hear from your experience, thanks for sharing! Do you think that the school is doing well preparing them for PSLE? Or is it necessary to have tuition etc?

                      Hello mommies, I'm an AC-sian. So, ACS (Primary) and ACS (Barker) are affiliated to ACS (Barker) and ACS (Independent) only accepts those with t-score above their high COP. I think last year's was 250. Of course, both are affiliated to ACJC. ACS (Primary) to me is more disciplined and hence more academic while Barker is traditionally more boisterous so more 'naughty' and not as good in their MT. Hope this helps to clear the air...somewhat.
