papaya99:
My boy had 2 COs and we let him decide. Couldn't go wrong with either scshools, but since he had set his heart on one, it was only right (in our eyes) that he is given the chance to work for his dream. After all, it was the only time he was ever so certain about his GOAL!
Hi, this is papaya99's DM. Thanks a lot for yr info. DS got CO from NUSHS, WL from HCI. Can't decide whether shld let DS follow his heart to go NUSHS or follow the crowd to HCI. We heard from his seniors that HCI students hv to study very hard, very competitive, dun know good for him or not.

can someone pls help me abt the question i had posted in front abt appeal?
-
Cockroach:
Can someone tell me how to appeal for a school? What do we need to bring when we appeal for a school? And when do we know the results for the appeal for a school? Pls help TIA
Some schools will post on their website the procedures for appeal. If the school doesn't have the info on the website, give the school a call and ask them for details.
Some schools will accept appeals immediately after the posting results are out. You will need to bring your results, certificates, testimonials etc depending on the school you're appealing to. Some may require you to sit for a test or go for an interview.
Depending on the school and your results, you may be notified of the results of your appeal as early as the next day (if your results are very good) or maybe even as late as the first week of January, if your results are borderline.
Each school has its own procedures so its best if you check with the schools you're interested in. -
At my sonโs school today, the whole P6 level was asked to sit a psle test paper (the whole paper 1hr 40min) under test conditions with invigilators from SEAB. Would anyone know the reason for this extra test? is it like a control or something? very puzzling.
