COP 2012 - For Secondary Schools in 2013

[Dreamgear]

jtoh:

I didn't realize the number of students taking PSLE in 2009 was 49,856, higher than the Dragon year cohort this year.


My predictions:
1) COP for top tier IP schools will go up.
2) COP for other IP schools will remain about the same or go down minimally bec of the increase in IP places with the intro of new IP schools.

Is the DSA spaces more then previous years or more or less constant among these schools, considering TJC and NUSH in the mix as well.....?

My thought is that if most of the above 262 already have DSA-ed, and that the top 10% remains constant at 249/250.....the COP might not rise at all.....

Will some of the top scorers going to new IP schools pull down the COPs of existing top tier IP schools?

Think COP for HCI, RGS, RI up 2 and NYG likely up 2.
Just follow EESIS, it has the best characteristics for predicting the top COPs.

No really, look at 2010 and 2012....there no conclusion to be drawn that higher EESIS = higher COP

That's my guess.

I would like to add that DSAed students’ t-scores were never included in the MOE’s data. All data is solely based on Si posting outcome.

I don't think so. I believe the top scorers will still choose to go to the top tier JCs. But the increase in number of IP places in the other tiers will naturally dilute the COPs in those JCs somewhat. This may or may not be tempered by the increase in numbers for the dragon cohort.

May I know from where can I find the median scores of schools? I can’t seem to find them from the MOE website. THanks

You go to MOE website, then look for school information, or just google for \"MOE, school information\". Select the school type and then school name. You will find the Lower (COP), upper, median of PSLE for the school for at least four years. It is very helpful.

I wonder why they remove the column for average score. they used to show the average of a school.

MOE seems to be making unhelpful changes.
