hi,
can someone advise on this:-
score 256
first choice-National Junior College (CUP-258)
second Choice-River Valley (CUP-254)
third choice-normal sec wothout IP
in this case, will she high chance get into River Valley or she will get third choice? since NJC she doesnt met the COP. thanks.
On Dec 19, you will receive SMS most probably Option 2. Ask you to report the next day to RV.
If NJC is the dream school. After RV orientation, straightaway go to NJC take an appeal form and prepare all the photocopy documents.
Most probably NJC will accept. Boy or Girl?
Girl or boy matters? -

Girl or boy matters? usually it does, we all know that boys tend to mature later than girls. -
Is it too late to check my dd results with moe?
How do I go about doing it?
What is the success rate?
Any parents had the experience of doing it and was successful?
Thanks. -
Is this information from a reliable source? Surprising as the school has been performing reasonably well past 2 years.[/quote]
Are we talking about the highest score here ? Then, it is not true. A girl I had been tutoring got 240. And I know that even though they did not reveal the top score, there were around 20 students who scored above 250
[/quote]
thank god :stupid: do you know what is the top score ?[/quote]
Not as yet; none of the students knew that day. But I am sure word will slowly leak out sooner or later. -
jtoh:
Ha I have the same thinking as you till my ds went into sec sch then ...wow...marginally passed only. In fact, half the class marginally passed too. Yes, model and algebra are very different thinking. One good in model doesn't mean can grab the concept of algebra. Like my ds, he's very puzzled why needs so many abc, prq, xyz in one equation. He took half a year to fully understand algebra and applied.octoberbaby:
kids used to score A star Maths in primary school, can flung maths in sec sch. Possible meh?
Possible. -
zeemimi:
I don't think A* students can flung Maths in Sec. These are the students who have strong interest in Maths & they are able to handle higher order & non routine questions. However, they might not do as well if they are not good in algebra.octoberbaby:

Yes! Possible. I won't hv believed that until I came across such students. They exist. -
Mum101:
I think NYPS did well this year.
About 40 obtained 270 and above.
Close to 50% (if I remember correctly about 47% to 48%) of cohort scored >=250.
NYPS takes in 75-100 pupils from GEP enrollment each year. -
My ds scored 263+2
We thinking of:
1. RI
2. HCI
3. DHS
4. NJC
5. CHS (IP)
6. VS (IP)
What’s e chances of getting into RI cos we believed the COP for this yes will definitely go up. Last year COP was 261.
Please share your views. Thank you! -

out of those 40 obtained 270 and above in Nanyang -
Nothing's to be proud of, NYPS takes in 75-100 pupils from GEP enrollment each year.Mum101:

should strip out 100 GEP pupils.
find out exactly how many from Mainstream alone
in Nanyang achieved following 3 score range.
>= 270
>= 260 to 269
>= 250 to 259
as for the 100 GEP pupils from Nanyang -
compare their results against All GEP pupils from (Nan Hua, Tao Nan, Rosyth, Catholic High, RGPS, ACS, Henry Park, St Hilda).
Only then it make a fair comparison. All went through the same mould, same MOE factory manufacturer - ie. the Highly Enriched GEP curriculum. The curriculum they were taught covered beyond PSLE syllabus, covered much more in depth concepts. The size of cohort is different in different GEP centre - some got 4 classes, some 3 classes, others 2 classes. Hence, to compare all 9 GEP centre - zoom into the average mean T score / per GEP centre.
Do not compare those 100 GEP pupils from Nanyang with any Mainstream school(s). The latter didn't go through the highly intensive MOE factory mould. -

Can't use +2 for RI. Posting is base on merit & not choice. No harm trying & it will not affect his chance of getting into HCI. Chance of getting into RI is 50% & HCI is 100%My ds scored 263+2
