          Both are good schools. For me, I will place 1. Cedar and 2. St Nick. The reason being I will do my JC in VJC.

          But do consider their distance from your home. Importantly, you have to consider your last 4 choices carefully as cedar (-8 pts) and St Nick (-6) might seem a bit difficult to get in unless you have something to backup.

            I see, which means that I can put in a schools that have COP more than 225 in the first two choices, then followed by a school of 225 COP in the 3rd choice, his chance will not be affected, right? His chance will still be exactly the same as if he had put the 225 school in the first choice?


            AM I right?

                My daughter score 238 + 1 . Any chance of getting into Nan Hua (COP 243 last year) if I appeal for her?


                Miss by 4 pts (2011 COP:243), do you have anything to back you up. e.g. performing arts or sports. You may want to go down to the school and talk to the P/VP abt your chances.

                The 6 choices of the school will be as follow:
                1. Nan hua
                2. Bukit pangjang
                3. Commonwealth
                4. Swiss cottage
                5. Clementi town
                6. Crescent girl

                Advise pls

                  Your chance of getting into Cedar & St Nick is low. Make sure your next few choices are within 235 to 240. Can consider Nan Chiau, Anglican, Anderson & Chung Cheng.

                    Cedar Girls give you a chance to mix with other races within the school but not St Nicks.

                      5. Clementi town
                      6. Crescent girl


                      Advise pls[/quote]You are wasting your choice 6 and 2.

                      Base on last year COP, I would have my 6 choices:
                      1. Bukit panjang -6
                      2. Crescent girl -5
                      3. Nan hua (SAP) -4
                      4. Commonwealth +2
                      5. Fairfield +3
                      6. Swiss cottage +3

                      Unless you really wish to go NHHS, then you may remove no 1 and 2. and add another 2 choices.
