Hi
Hi happy fish, thank you for your feedback. Just to clarify, by HMP do you refer to Higher Music Programme, like the one offered by NYGH?AceTutors123:
[quote=\"happy fish\"]Hi AceTutors123
Thanks for the info., it is a very good ref. however, the condition is not absolutely perfect. Some of the COP inclusive of HMP.
what i mean is the \"bonus points for SAP schools.\"[/quote]Hi
I thought the COP is given as a guide for students and parents to gauge the popularity of secondary schools and their chances of entering their chosen school. Since the COPs for SAP schools include bonus points for HMT, isn't it appropriate for the COP in the table to include HMT bonus points? :scratchhead: -

Please see item. 24 at the table.JJ1111:
Just feedback, the COP for Nan Chiau High should be 236 in 2012, not 243.
The COP of 243 for 2012 shown in the table refers to Nan Hua High and not Nan Chiau High.

The list of SAP schools has been included.

Whether a DC uses HMT bonus points depends on the DC's results, it does not affect the COP of the school.
e.g. NYGH's COP is 265. If a DC's PLSE score is 263 and she gets 3 points for HMT, she would meet the COP. -

Any idea if MOE has historically been posting COPs of SAP schools that include or exclude these HMT bonus points?JJ1111:

24\tNAN CHIAU HIGH SCHOOL\t240\t243\t0[/quote]Sharp eyes JJ1111. Thanks for pointing that out. I have updated the list. Was wondering how could Nan Chiau not drop in placing despite a supposed drop in cut-off
It looks like there is a vast inflation of PSLE aggregate scores. Scary. -

Base on my understanding, the COP released by MOE is inclusive of HMT bonus points for SAP schools. -
Ranking list is not desirable.
IP should have a separate list comparing and listing all IP intake COP.
'O' level track COP should be in a separate list.
School with dual track, the IP and 'O' should be separated as shown on MOE table..
Just an opinion, can't agree with the ranking list.

Some people find the List useful and rely on it to make plans/decisions..Ranking list is not desirable.

Just an opinion, can't agree with the ranking list.
Some people merely use the List as a guide..
If you don't find the list useful or reliable, then don't use it.. -
It is useful if looking at the school as a whole. If one likes to compare a list of IP schools, a IP list would be better. Likewise for ‘O’ track comparison…
Understand that takes efforts to create…
As I said, just an opinion and suggesstion…
Thank you Firefly38! -
Acetutor123, appreciate your effort though
