To the parent whose son score 263, if another guy with 263 put HCI as his first choice, he will get it over your son/

Only272, thank you for your clarification. So only those that score the same 263 will get consideration first with the school of their first choice, right?

Hi 272, congratulations on your good results. However please be kind in your posting. Please do not rub salt into someone wounds. It hurts.

Hi Janet, I fully understand how you feel. He at least qualify for express course. Our ds will mature and do well eventually.

This information is wrong. Allocation is by merit, not order of choice. The exact details of how allocation is done in event of same score can be found in the grey guide book

You have been a source of comfort here with your friendly chat, so here's one for you and your boy.

Janet,
Hear hear... You have been a great source of help. Exam is a one off event, anything could have happened. It's over and we can only look forward. No point dwelling.

Hugs to you and your son. The road is long. And one exam ain't going to determine the rest of life.

This is wrong. Who has the priority will depend on who has higher score and not on the choice. If both score 263, there are still decimal points behind 263 (but not made known to students) and whoever has higher scores will get higher priority.

good marks. Pity about the lack of grace.
