As Sji Junior vacancy is 51 and 53 applied under 1 km, will there be any balloting or will the school absorb the 2 additional students

Why is MOE website showing ACSJ 79Apps and SJIJ 80 Apps?
Thought they have called up those >1KM to pull out their app. Did anyone get the chance to verify the actual APP with the schools?

That's because it also includes the numbeR of those more than 1km.

How does the waiting list work? Is it prioritised according to phases/distance too? (e.g PV parents within 1km is higher on the waiting list than a Phase 2C parent within 1km)


Or is it first-come-first-served?
Or at the discretion of the school?

The schools have total say of their waiting list, and they choose who they want to accept.

It is common belief that the schools will give priority to PVs who had failed to get a place in phase 2B, as a way to show appreciation for what they had done.

Yes, absolute discretion of the school.

I think this is the first time SJIJ has had to ballot for phase 2C (under 1 km) in like .... forever! :scared:

Understand there is no ballot for P2B in SCGS, anyone know-how many applicants within 1 km, 1-2km & >2km?

Exactly 43 applications <1km for the 43 vacancies.

On the 2nd day, there were only slightly more than 30 applicants where 2 applicants are 1-2 km and 1 applicant > 2km.

Thanks to ST who provided free ad for SCGS and in the end ... anyone > 1km has no chance at all.

Thanks Anxious. I think your data is P2C. I am interested on P2B data, understand there is no balloting in P2B but curious how many to stay between 1km & more than 1km

Anyone knows the closing for scgs?

Just called SCGS, 2C has 42 spaces[39+3]. Which means 2B were all in! Congrats! I'm waiting for Phase 2C next week!!

39 within 1km and 3 for more than 1.

SCGS quite selective in PV? Are you gunning for it?

37 is taken in P2b for 40 available seats. How many within 1km & over within P2B?
