I came from an English-speaking family though went to SAP school. My mistake was not doing enough research about HCJC’s culture. I should have skipped that and put my 3rd choice NJC as 2nd choice instead.
No wonder ACSI is your 1st choice for your son.
HCJC has good teachers definitely.
As for my son’s 6 choices, we are trying to find out which schools are the best fit for him. -

Wah... so maybe can translate the things to say in English, @strawberryking!
English oral topic is on recycling, hence this topic will not be tested for Day 2 too.
That's the principle of recycling, isn't it? :scratchhead: -

Back then (unlike now) was much harder to do research on the schools. During my time, HCJC was linked with Ong Teng Cheong and NJC was linked with Lucy Tay and then you choose based on that information. Funny.

The school at Dover Road is very atas, rich in tradition and connections. I am supportive too if my child wants to go there! -
Hiii, was wondering what’s the percentage of a WL to be accepted by school eventually ? Is the chance high ? Anyone knows?

I recall reading earlier that the chances of a WL being converted into a CO are quite decent but I don't know where I saw it and don't have the exact percentages either.

It's hard to distinguish SAP schools from normal secondary schools nowadays, they all spoke English as their normal communication. Even in their school compounds. Maybe you only heard of SAP schools like NYGH of HCJC coming out top in chinese competitions only. Top JCs are still RJC or HCJC, NYJC is improving every year and it had overtook the old favorites like NJC, VJC.

Some parents may have this perspective:

since the child already in an English speaking environment outside school, can consider expose the child to a “more Chinese school environment”, so that child Chinese standard is more likely to continue to improve.
What is your view on this pls? -

While RJC and HCI undoubtably continue to attract some of the brightest kids, the question of NYJC overtaking some of the old favourites is kinda 'iffy'.

One can point to the COP and argue that it is getting good quality in and is among the most popular school among O Level programme cohort, the anecdotal evidence in terms of the matriculated students in the most 'desired' courses, i.e. medicine, law, etc as well as the students picking up the scholarships awarded are still from the 'old favourites'.
