      Finally received the NJC rejection letter.

      Well at least there is a closure to the whole saga.
      Time to move on.

              Given NJC's more selective stance this year, getting a CO is not easy. Your son has tried his best. And you are a rare good dad to follow up so closely and accompany him for his DSA journey. :imanangel: So, give yourself a pat for being a supportive parent and move on. All the best to your DS PSLE! :rahrah: :xedfingers: To be fair to NJC, it could be a case whereby they have received many rejected COs in last few years and so has reviewed their selection process. After all their IP does not have a long history so they are still rightsizing the DSA COs and fine-tuning the process. The more established IPs had their fair share of teething problems at the start too. Don't forget your son's morale so do encourage him ... Add oil!

                  I think all the IP schools has class size not more than 30/class


                  What's the class size of RI ?
                  Heard ACSI IB side around 25 per class.

                  RI = 30

                    No leh, some got >30 per class. Don't know where the expensive fees go to... :skeptical: :moneyflies: If they charge so much, they should maintain all class sizes between 25-30 max.


                    Hi

                    Suggest to go ACSI. 25 students per class and all class rooms are installed with air con. So your school fee sure worth it....

                      Am not sure is this a stupid question.


                      May I know any one who has CO from RI and not putting RI as first choice?

                      Heard for the batch of 2008, majority of GE boys , who are also high scorer in PSLE, from my ds's sch put HCI as first choice while offered both CO from HCI and RI. Not heard of the situation last two years though. For last yr batch, my ds could find some in HCI and some in RI uniform when they visited school on teachers' day. πŸ˜‚ As for girls, most of them are in NYGH school uniform according to ds. Very very few in NUSH uniform.


                      I know some ASC(P) boys select ACSI and reject RI CO. They are ASC die hard fans.

                      They apply RI just for back up.
