Okay, confirmed. The EESIS COP this year is 260. I got it straight from MOE.
So these couple of years the EESIS COP has hovered around +/- 260, give or take a couple of points. If the top 10% is also 250 this year, then it seems to imply that MOE does a cut off at around 260 for top 3% and around 250 for top 10%.
In earlier years EESIS was higher though. -
Thanks Snow crystal for the clarfication. :oops:

That means top 30% is 260 and above? :?Okay, confirmed. The EESIS COP this year is 260. I got it straight from MOE.

No, 260 plus is top 3%. -

No, all students who are eligible for EESIS will be informed together with their PSLE results, on that perforated note that was given to them.
But I tot the child must get into an Independent School to qualify.
So if got by DSA, then will know, right?
But those who did not get by DSA, won't know yet until they get into IS, right?
So if you get into an independent school, you can use your EESIS. If you choose not to go to an independent school, you don't get to use it. -

The note states that DS is eligible for EESIS cos he met the GEP promotion criteria, however his aggregate is 254. If the COP is 260, does it mean that he is eligible but will not be awarded EESIS after the posting result is out?
