All About T-Score

VALyap:

agreed with Jtoh, EEISS does NOT discriminate gender, it is by merits. as long as top 3% of cohort , EEISS cut off t-score, all SG kids be given.

Eesis - Have to study in independent schs too

If I'm not wrong, SARS only appeared at end of 2002. If the birth rate is low for that year, I doubt it has anything to do with SARS.

you're right!

Like that EESIS will b higher or lower?

EESIS given is absolute number or percentage?

Can know the cutoff point for EEISS?

Each year the cutoff point for EEISS is different because it depends on the cohort.

Clarifications: I did use a hypothetical score but here are the actual results. Note that this was also not within the last 5 years so things might have changed.


Person A: 260, GEP, EESIS due to GEP, got into School Y through GEP DSA
Person B: 261, no EESIS, got into School X

Both applied for French. Person A got it but Person B didn’t.

EESIS COP was 262.

Person B did not get into School Y at first (because of COP) but appealed and got in. At School X, Person B was told that he/she did not get 3rd lang.

And so your point is? :scratchhead:

What is your point? And what has EESIS COP got to do with 3rd lang? And what has getting into school X and Y got to do with 3rd lang?

I forgot to include my question: Is it possible for the person with the lower T-score to get 3rd lang in this case?

If it's an actual case, then you should know the answer. Furthermore, we do not know the selection criteria for 3rd lang. MOE has said it's based on PSLE results. But they did not reveal explicitly which part of the results.
