Hi, I would like to ask if my dd put NYGH as her first choice and NJC as second with the intention to appeal for NYGH, what will be my dd's chance of getting into NJC if NYGH does not accept her? For yr info, my dd scored 258+2 for her PSLE.

258+2 for NYGH is risky, esp. since NYGH has affiliation intake from NYPS and there will be limited vacancies.

258 for NJC is 1 point above NJC's COP last year. If the COP is similar this year, your gal should be able to get in NJC. However, if there is any increase in COP for NJC, there is a risk. Putting a school as a 2nd choice may jeopardise your appeal chance for that school. I do not know if NJC will insist you must put it as 1st choice if you intend to appeal but it is something you should take into consideration.

Thank you so much for sharing this piece of info, Vidhyalog.

You have been so helpful, at least we will be mentally prepared if there's interviews for us too. We will be going to the school on Monday as have been busy looking at other schools since psle results was released.

Yes, I did tell my DS that chances is very slim, but we will still go ahead to appeal, our last try since it is his dream school. He has been thinking about this school over the last 2 years. But we have to accept reality

Yes, we are taking the same approach as you, appeal but to move on to other selections and hope for the best!
All the best to your child! Have a relaxing, safe and enjoyable trip

You are welcome. Pls check SST website - they say your son must also go down while filling the appeal application. And you have till 23rd Dec. Cheers

Yes, thanks. Have checked the website too, Cheers

I’m seeing "appeals" alot here on this thread… How does the appeal works ? Appeal to preferred Sch after 21 dec Sch selection outcome? Appeal by writing to preferred Sch now? How? How does it works . The word is so conveniently being said .



Thx
