[TREX8]

Hi Funx3, no lah - DD won't change her mind once she has made it up. Some view it as stubborn, others view it as determined. I don't mind as I am sure both schools will be able to provide DD with a wonderful education experience.


A few \"aunties\" (family friends who had attended and/or have children in or wanted their children to get into RGS) have tried to persuade her otherwise. DD just listened politely and will still end with \"it's ok, I will stick with my choice.\" Some of her teachers were surprised too. But well, it's her choice and we support her. At least, when things didn't turn out well and/or should she meet with obstacles, she can't blame us !

Funx3:

phtthp:

but why do parents want to 'abandon' RGS, after putting it as 1st choice ?

As Sista Trex8 has shared, Even if it's put as 2nd Choice, RGS sends the Email.
So Guess it's Auto-generated to Act as an Acknowledgement of Receipt,
And Reminding PArents and Gals like in the case of Sista Trex8 .... Still Can Amend to RGS as 1st Choice, B4 28/10/11 3pm!

Make sure you get the confirmation number and slip.
Then print it out and save a soft copy.
Should be over in less than 5 minutes.

last year for NYPS, top score was 276 x 2, followed by 273 x 2, and 272 x 4, and 271 x 6; a mixture of mainstream and GEP

Yes exactly. Prior years you should see 280s and a lot of 270s for NYPS. A lot of average schools top scorer scores ard mid to high 260s last year. Like what you and others said, so long as Simply Kiasu DS is top 3% tt's what matters :imcool:

Hello All, thank you so much for your thoughts and advise! Will take the leap of faith and go with DS's wishes :xedfingers:

THANKS, vlim!
DH is out of town & he was still in two minds whether to wait for S1 posting (since dd results has always been above 27X for the past few exams) & apply for RGS OR heck it & confirm the offers with NYGH as first choice & DHS as second. I told dd of ur dragonfruit story & she remained firm on her stand - NYGH. Initally we were apprehensive if she was buay song with rgs for rejecting her in dsa...BUT time passed & dd preference for NYGH grew more & more as she researched further. So after a final round of MSN discussion with DH, we decided to support dd & seal her fate with NYGH. The final button was pressed & she is as happy as a lark now! :rotflmao:

Thanks ngbrdad for your kind reminder.. I nearly forgot about all that! I have been busy revising with DS2 (SA2 this week) till I nearly went crazy and bald (yes, I really pulled my hair when I got mad!!!)...

Our computer has been with us for ages (really lao-gu-dong)! DS1 always complains that it is sooo slow, but I always tell DS1 that he is too fast, not that the computer is too slow. But my dear computer must choose such a good time to take a break!!!

I posted twice at the RI thread to seek advice on what type of computers I should buy to cater to Sec Sch's needs (since DS will be the one who will be using the computer most of the time) but got no reply to date... Maybe I should have posted my question in this thread coz the parents here are much more helpful and willing to share... :grphug:

:offtopic: Heard that there is a scheme for Sec Sch pupils to purchase computers at special student prices.. Is it true? Does RI have this scheme
too? Does this scheme only apply to laptops only?

Appreciate your advice/opinion as I am totally clueless about computer stuffs... Thanks in advance!
