All Schools are GOOD Schools

Chenon,

I agree with you. The Rulang top boy; father works in a bank, mother full time house wife and he has Tuition as well.
I also agree that in school like Nanyang and RGPS, not all come from well to do family due to Alumni, old boys and girls.
One of my friends son in Nanyang with no tuition only got 208+
Also, it is not just tuition that matters but quality tuition; my friends daughter in an elite school with tuition ended in Assumption Secondary School.

And so... why doesn't MGS produce the same kind of results as Nanyang?

Good qn! Perhaps some schools have different goals!

Are their results really that bad? :?

anyway, why the sudden smoke screen....surely the above mentioned schools have much better results than a typcial neighbourhood school.

perhaps phtthp (sp?) can give some stats on the quality passes to verify if it's just my imagination...

What smokescreen? YOU mentioned MGS... I just randomly picked another branded school from the list you gave. The initial comparison was with Nanyang, so now why do you raise the smokescreen of neighbourhood schools?

coz of the belief that affluent schools generally do better than neighbourhood schools...it's not just nanyang even though they may be ahead of the rest.
