COP 2012 - For Secondary Schools in 2013

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.

same here.. :hi5:

It has and always will be a demand and supply issue. If supply has increased in IP schools this year, COP could go down. Usually the new entrants will get the lowwer end of the stick.

With more students in the cohort due to the dragon yr, there will be nore applying to non-IP schools, so expect the COP of SAP and Autonomous schools to move up slightly. COP on the whole does not fluctuate much for these schools, typically plus/minus 1 to 2. Only very recently did we see an Autonomous School Dunman Sec dropped COP below 230 to 229.

As more schools offering IP, just wonder what is the number of student intake for this year IP? Thank you.

It should be 4000 as stated elsewhere in KSP forum.

I am not sure forumners have already read this piece of info.


Apparently, 500 students with t-scores more than 250 have opted out from the IP system and have chosen the O level, more structured, route.

Or maybe it was last year..I'll post the link tonight. The news report has a Bukit Panjang High cover boy who has 266 t-score and has chosen BPGH.

Assuming TOP 10% of 48500 students are above 250, with 4000 IP, it would mean 800+ students would need to go for O level program, this will push up top O level schools cut off point quite a fair bit.

dd normal meanstream with T-Score 263+3, PSLE Result doesn't reflect the status of EESIS.


Yes. I have checked again the PSLE Result as what Jtoh advised, indeed my dd is eligible for the EESIS.

Glad you found it. Is your dd applying for an IS school?

Elsewhere in the forum they've placed the number of IP places at about 4200/4300 and that's not counting the IP places at SOTA. So it's about 500-600 students who score more than 250 who will seek spots in the O level route. But that's assuming everyone wants to go IP. Not everyone does.
