When I was in VS, the admin lady attended 2 phone calls answering for appeal cases in VS. Heard that the VS Appeals committee finalised and shortlisted the appeals and informing them. Those who are shortlisted will be called. BTW in VS the S1 Orientation starts from 8:30 AM tmr.

Think the school reserves the 25 places for Discretionary Admission after S1 posting.

In Sec Sch book, it stated Dunman High and NJC have similar COP 258 for 2010. First choice RGS, 2nd choice DHS because of better traffic , NJC 3rd choice. Much dissapointment NJC maintains at 258, DHS lowers to 256. Being kiasu, appeal to 2 schools RGS and NJC. Who knows today received from both schools the good news. If DHS remains 258 COP, i won't appeal for NJC.

So next year if DHS' COP goes up and RGS' goes down, will u transfer back to DHS? lol

friendship, if going by yr reasoning.......
i suppose ALL DHS 2012 sec1 batch shd transfer out of DHS lorr.....LOL
in addition, u would be busy every yr running ard the schs, if next yr, RGS would to drop a point back to 260,
then u would have to transfer to another sch whose COP increases or maintain

btw, the COP for both DHS n NJC were at 257 last yr,
so there was a drop of 1 point this yr to 256, not 2 pts as what u have stated.
this drop is well within most pple expectations becos of VS-Cedar IP,
arent u expect that too.....?? as what u had posted in DHS thread.

friendship:

It is OK for us to accept the principal's speech with chinese and english. What to do, cannot go to top mountain, now have to scale a slightly lower peak mountain. Why is COP for Dunman High is low this year? Is the school standard dropping? didn't have the chance to talk to any staff because rushing to rgs and njc to submit the appeal forms.

friendship:

That's what I have suspected because of Cedar and VS IP.
President Scholar after 6 years only emerged from RJC and Hwa Chong.
NJC, VJC, and DHS never heard of.

U didnt get yr facts right.
