About COP for PSLE:


where can I find the distribution of PSLE results? I mean, is 220 points average or at high end of range?

Thanks for help! :?:

Hi everyone. Just joined the forums.

Not sure where to ask this question or if its been asked before.

Is there a category for enrolling my daughter to MGS if i was from AC? Or does the parent have to be from MGS?

Thank you

Yes, have to be from the actual school itself. No concession for so called sister school. Otherwise, there will be even more \"string-pulling\" and there will be even more unhappiness amongst parents who have no connections at all.

e.g. one of my friend's son in Catholic High School, hoping to get the daughter into St Nicholas, and hoping that there is such a thing as sister school, but is disappointed, as there is no such arrangement. in the end went to a convent school nearby.

wish to clarify ...


i heard that:-

i) if mother was former ex Bukit Timah MGS Secondary but not from MGS primary - her daughter can enrol for MGS primary P1 under priority scheme, P2A.

ii) however if mother was former ex Paya Lebar MGS Secondary (PLMGS) but not from PLMGS primary - then her daughter is not entitled to PLMGS primary 1 enrolment, under P2A privilege.

if True, why different since both are Methodist Girls' schools ? or am i wrong / blur ? :?

Thank you very much, for clarification.

That's because MGS (@Bukit Timah) is a full school while PL MGS is not.

Hi parents,


As much as we all hope to get our children into a affliated school so that they can \"safe guard\" a place in the secondary with the lower PSLE aggregate cutoff point. I was thinking if this minimum PSLE cutoff point a lot of difference compared to the children who got in without affliation?

can someone give me a example of \"what is the usual minimum cutoff points for affliation\" & what is the normal cutoff points to get into the secondary school?

is it really that important to put our children in a affliated school?
appreciate your inputs here so to help us parents to choose a school for our kids.... thank you.

cut off point for affiliation may change over the years

SCGS = going up every year or so it planned to be, going into IP school soon

NYPS to NYGH = minimum 250 for affiliation, without affiliation it is 262 thereabout
