Advise for a confused dad

Crester:

That link is Yr 2011 Banding not the latest.

This yr Band'g:
Commonwealth still Band 3.
Fairfield this yr improved to Band 6.

TKGS consistently hovers between Band 1-2. This yr back to Band 1.
This is quite a feat for a sch which takes in students with score of 235+-

couldnt agree more on the band1-2 of TKGS
any idea on banding for 2012 for
- Clementi Town
- CHIJ St. Theresa
- Gan Eng Seng
- CHIJ Katong Convent
TIA

The cops for each sch usually vary +/-2 points from the previous year. Taking into a/c tt it is the dragon year, maybe we buffer in a possible variation of +/-4. That being the case, it should be quite safe to consider schools with cop 228 or higher instead.


My suggestion is to list the schools with cop 236 to 228, put their respective banding in the next column, followed by its location. From there, you should get a more systematic picture. Any school with a band of 5 or worse, I would drop from my list because with a cop of 230+ I would presonally prefer at least a band 3 sec school.

Hope this helps.
