      Find it is unfair that the school consider strictly on psle aggregrate when granting appeals. As psle is just a one time exam, it does not justify and confirm the child true abilities. My child didnt do very well and obtained 22+ but her 6 years of academic results has been constant viz top 25% from p1-5 and

      tp 10% in p6.

            It is not fair that the school soley based on psle aggregrates on appeal. My child didnt do very well scored 22+ but her primary school academic results has been constant viz top 25% from p1-5 and top 10% in p6. Psle is just a one exam, the secondary school should also look into school academic results into consideration especially this dragon cum millenium cohort is the largest n most competitive with bell curve very high.

                Most schools will not inform if appeals are unsuccessful. Some already started calling successful candidates since last fri and today but offices only operated half day today, you may like to wait till first two weeks of school reopen. Lessons wont start till third week so do not buy books and uniform firat if you wish to wait for good news from your appeals.

                      But how would the secondary school know how your child's primary school exam papers compare with the rest of the primary schools in Singapore? Depends on the primary's school's exam's standards too,r ight?

                        I don't think it's strictly true that appeals are decided mainly by aggregate score. My nephew also scored 22x but got offered by 3 schools with COP of 245 and above based on his cca. So it is prudent not to ignore cca. If 2 kids with identical scores appeal to a school, I think the school will take the one with cca track records.
