Hi,

I need some advice. DS got 250+1.
Would this be enough for an IP programme? Any school to recommend?

It seems 250+1 is good enough for many good schools e.g. SJI, VS, CHS, ACS(I) under the O-level track, but falls short of the cut-off point for IP programme A-Level track. So near, yet so far........

Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks.

From a concerned dad.

Anyone has any feel for what is the cutoff for the new IP schools? Mine is a dd and her score is also around there. Difficult to decide when there is no past year COP to rely on

Yes, janet, life is not about how you fall, but how you get up. PSLE is not everything, there is a long way to go. Jia You!

Any one can help me advice on HMTL . My DS not so good in MT but he is eligible due to top 10%. How does it add value to grades or points for university admission or A level grades. He is going for IP track so points for JC/MI is nt applicable for my DS

Hi,


I’ve a few questions, not sure if it’s appropriate to post it here:

1) with the same T-score, will my 1st choice will be of higher priority than your 2nd choice?

2) Is everyone offered Malay/Arabic for 3rd language?

3) My child is eligible for SAP school. But he didn’t meet the MOE’s requirement of MT = A* or HMT <= MERIT. Does it mean if he goes to SAP, he will do Normal MT? I also heard that some SAP schools offer only HMT. Thus, does it mean then the MOE’s requirement will be overriden?

TIA!

Hei, dont compare the scores with others children. Parents compare your child's scores with your own and be happy. If you dont have one, be happy that he or she scored good marks. Dont compare with other children. My wishes to all children who sat for PSLE.

My advice is to follow the forum thread on EEIS cut-off and 10% cut off and compare with last year's.

You can guage your chance but also keep in mind that there are more ip school places available this year. However given that most of the principals of these new ip schools know the trick of maintaining a high COP by constraining the size of the intake, the effect of the new ip \"may be diluted\".
Hope that helps.

perhaps u can try first choice IP programme of a secondary school then the second choice is the O level programme of the same secondary school, in this way if the child does not get the IP programme, the child can still go to the same dual programme secondary school and try again at the end of sec 2 for admission into sec 3 IP.
