But as I scored 265 excluding hmt, do you think it is a safe score? Based on the ksp threads, 1358 people scored 260 and above for 2011 psle. so do u have any idea wat is the number of vacancies available on average for rgs and nygh? thanks!! :lovesite:

You should be somewhat safe because top 3% indicator EESIS COP 260 is same as last year.
Btw for interesting reference:
RGS COP
263 - 2009 Sec 1 intake and EESIS COP 263
260 - 2010 Sec 1 intake and EESIS COP 261
260 - 2011 Sec 1 intake and EESIS COP 260
Voila!!

Hi I was thinking EESIS is given to the top 1/3 of cohort entering Independent School, no so?

Hi, I would like to ask, is the COP for SAP schools inclusive of HMT? For eg, the cop of NYGH is 262 inclusive of HMT. Does that mean DHS's COP is 257 and is inclusive of HMT. Kind of puzzled.


Appreciate if some kind soul can enlighten me.

Thanks so much.

Yes, it is inclusive of HCL bonus pts.

Hello :rahrah:
Maybe St.Patrick? :imcool:

Was thinking of that too. But really knows nothing about that school. Anyone has any info on St.Patrick?

You can search online! Or go to the thread on the website :lovesite: :lovesite: :lovesite: .

You can also look at your child school search book. That thick one with all the schools :)))))

Hoping for feedback from parents regarding the discipline and students' behavior.[/quote]

No offence to any parents or students of St Pat's out there, i often see the boys smoking while they r barely 100m fr the school, and swearing too. This is just my personal observation, i m sure there r gd boys there as well.

Yes yes you are right. From the KSP forum, some guru has also worked out it translates to roughly top 3% of cohort.

Yes both of you are correct. And some senior expert KSPs have worked out that it also translates to roughly top 3% of PSLE cohort.

Can anyone advise on third languages? Should I choose French or Japanese? Can anyone tell me the pros and cons of learning these two languages? I’m still deciding which language should I learn as I’m totally foreign to these two languages though I know some basic Japanese (not much).
