      Appeal rejected. Was told that PSLE score has no relevance or has little relevance during appeals. There are other considerations (unknown). DS can not understand the fact that school is accepting other appeals ignoring someone who has scored exactly equal to COP and given ACSI the first preference. Poor kid.

      :yikes: :nailbite: how can that be?! Same score as COP and juz miss by decimal places. Did you furnish any other docs eg p6 results or report book comments by teachers which did not act to his favor?

      Every document was attached.[/quote]Find this hard to understand too. Feel so cheated. Got the same score yet.....
      these so called good schools sounded very high-handed leh.

          Maybe they had students with T-scores much higher than the COP appealing?

            I got to know from someone that his son got a call that his appeal was successful. I contacted the school and got to know my appeal was not successful.
            This 'someone' son is from ACS family primary schs? And also score same as COP?

                possible factors taken into account could also be a person's CCA / leadership involvment etc in pri sch. Sch Swimmer vs non-sch swimmer, head prefect vs not-prefect, etc. it's quite clear which choice the sch will make.

                  Not from affiliated school. Did not enquire much about him, though. And everything was ok in the documents. Probably other considerations. However, I think it is time to move on. DS posted to SJI. Am sure he will do well there. I like SJI equally. It was just the fact that he score exactly equal to COP that is troubling him. I convinced him SJI is equally good. Hopefully, few days, he will accept the decision and will be happy in his new school.

                    In that case person might not have given RI as first preference. DS first choice was ACSI.

                      Irony is that we do not know anything other than T Score.
