sequencing the 6 choices
-
May i know if the sequence of choices in the s1form matters if 2 students meet the cop for the same school? If both score 235, and the cop for the school is 235, student a put as 1st choice, student b as 3rd, does student a has an advantage?
If this is a sap school, if one is 235 and the other is 234+1, does it matter? -

First of all, there are many decimal points after the 235 score. So it is unlikely that two students will have exactly the same score. Hence one will be ranked higher than the other and his choices take precedence over the 2nd student.May i know if the sequence of choices in the s1form matters if 2 students meet the cop for the same school?

If in the event that both students have exactly the same score and both opt for the same school, the one with the first choice gets the place over the 3rd choice.
Based on previous years discussion, 235 has advantage over 234+1. -
I understand that each student is ranked, and with decimals, thus it is almost very unlikely that2 students having same t-score.
But I still have 1 more question. DS has 1 bonus point for HMT, thus his t-score is 236+1. I am putting Chung Cheng Main as first choice. In terms of ranking, will he be ranked at 237, or 236? -

According to the grey book, if two scores are exactly the same, priority will be given to singapore citizen, then to the PR, then to international student. If there are more than 2 citizens, then the posting into the school will be determined by a computerised ballot…

Makes sense, especially if both students of exactly the same score down to the last decimal point and are both Singapore citizens choose exactly the same schools as their first choice. But I would imagine that the chances of this are uncommon.According to the grey book, if two scores are exactly the same, priority will be given to singapore citizen, then to the PR, then to international student.

More improbable that there will only be one place left in the school for just two Singapore citizens with identical score to contest for.
