      i am seriously worried n confused n have no more hair left to pull...
      😒

      Hi, u must b stay'g West side.
      Hv u considered Kranji Sec? It's a V gd neighbourhood sch.
      Band 4 these few years but this yr jump into Band 3.
      May I know hv u called Fairfield Sec to ask if u put it as 2nd choice, does sch entertain appeal?
      U see, there are some Schs that only consider appeal if u place their Schs as First choice.
      Don't forget, Fairfield has its own affiliation students try'g to appeal
      in too which the sch may consider them first b4 u ESP if sch finds out u only put it as 2nd choice.
      But if u really like Commonwealth, put as num 1.

      Good pointer you brought up..
      i will ring Fairfield tmr
      :oops:

            What about TKGS (233). I think you should put in school with COP 230-ish in option 3, then move down the rest. JMHO πŸ˜„

            ya thought of TKGS too.
            cop 230-ish school kinda hard to filter imho
            still very confused

              i've heard that students who enter tkgs/tkss like the school a lot, perhaps due to the warm environment. also, the students they produce are pretty good as well. πŸ™‚ it's worth considering. if i'm not wrong, they produce good o level results too.
