can you cfm the HMT points is before or after adding to meet cut off?

Eg cutoff point of a sch: 230
After add HMT point = 230 or must be 232?

If cut off for a school is 230, then your score can be 298 + 2 bonus points for HMT =230

thank you.

Sorry, another question: it was mentioned use of HMT points only for SAP sch. But a lot of non SAP sch offered HMT. So I am confused.

SAP = traditional chinese origin sch, eg Nan Hua

non SAP eg, Clementi Town (based on MOE website, ref F, a list of sch offering HMT)

Does it mean a sch that offers HMT, I can use HMT points?

No, you can only use HMT scores for SAP schools such as HCI, NYGH, St Nicholas etc.

I am not familiar with Chung Cheng but I suppose you will be able to find the information from the school itself or the MOE website.

Hi, I have been reading the posts at this forum for quite some time. Only regret is that I should start earlier when my girl was doing her PSLE last yr.


If you are staying in the east and wanted a girls school, TKGS would be a good choice. My girl is in sec 1 now and she really enjoys being around with all the girls. It can be slightly stressful at times but overall if a child like the school, others can be overcome by determination.
