"not offered admission" is actually a good news. Not all children fit for NUSH. At least parents know your kids do not fit for this school. Focus on PSLE. Still got many good top school waiting for them.

Hi, may I know what is the status if it's on WL?

[justbehappy]

Congrats to all who received CO and WL. For the WL, based on past years, ALL will be CO on PSLE results release day.

Hi,


can anyone share what is meant by "pending"? My DS’s status is pending so I understand this is not CO. Does it mean he is also not on WL? I am absolutely lost!

Thanks in advance!

It shows pending

For parents with DC on \"WL\"

From past experience, a \"WL\" is as good as CO if any only if you choose NUSH as your first choice in Option preference list. Suppose if you have another CO and put that as your 1st choice and NUSH WL as 2nd choice(of the 3 choices), then automatically the 1st CO is taken as your preferred choice. NUSH expected a higher no of CO not taken up (competition with RI/RGS/NYGH/ACSI etc) and that's why a certain no of WL have been selected as possible replacements. So these WL are as good as CO given that not all CO offered are taken up. The no of COs offered is 153 with certain no of good WL as replacements. No body know the figures.

The PSLE intake is only about 17 candidates yearly. The cohort for NUSH in 2011 is 139 and 150 (I think) for 2012 while actual yearly allocation is for maximum of 170 places. That's 20-30 off the target. These are the CO not taken up afte the WLs have been taken into consideration.

NUSH don't top up the figure to 170. IMHO so a WL is as good as a CO.

Is there a min T-score for WL to be converted to CO during PSLE release day?
