                There you go…there are enough SCs living within 1km of the schools. Typically for NYPS, it would have been over-registered by double, i.e. 50 for 25 seats including both SCs and PRs. This year, 33 for 25 is a reasonable size. Of course as years go by, more PRs may decide to become SCs since SCs are enjoying more perks now and the competition may become stiff again.

                  yes.

                  What makes you so sure all 33 are within 1km?

                  I'm curious how you know.

                        Thanks for that. Does that mean that the school actively prevented people outside 1km registering at 2C? I'm trying to understand the mechanics when people register at different times and so might try their luck (even though they are outside 1km) before the final position is known.

                        Why doesn't MOE release the breakdown by distance? Seems like the info is available and is important to know, obviously.
