On the point about sports WL having higher chance of conversion, I thought it was previously shared that the chance of conversion depends on the rank of WL at which the kids are. So when there's a CO given up, the child who ranks highest will be converted first regardless of the domain. Please enlighten. Is it the WL ranking or the domain ranking?

By all accounts, when a CO is given up the space goes to the next kid on the WL, regardless of domain.

As for the higher chance of conversion, this is likely a statement that at best applies on average. But it is not inconsistent with the WL conversion being domain agnostic. I would guess that most schools have domains that get priority (want to make sure these needs are met). Which domains probably varies by school.

Sorry if I gave the impression that all sports will convert first. As you've replied, it doesn't always happen. Different sports may have different priorities within a school and even WLs issued within the same domain may have different priorities (based on a number of things).

Thanks for taking the time to explain. 🙏

I think there’s definitely chances of WL being converted as many received more than 1 CO for IP schools. Hope for the best!

That’s nice to know. In my circle of friends, I haven’t heard of many that receive COs from IP schools.

Wowwww , congratulations 🎉 how many your child received?

I know we have parents asking about the conversion rate of WL.. Which we understand differs from sch to sch and cohort to cohort and also where ur child is ranked..


But just out of curiosity.. Anyone here received multiple COs and they already know for sure that they are not accepting a CO for a particular sch and doesn't mind sharing it here.. 😅

I know one received CO from NUSH and RI and is going forgo RI

Those with CO under sports to IP school, can they cope with academics since the entry will be at a different level from the AL requirement by PSLE ? Anyone with older child can share ?

I know 6 kids who have received 3 COs this year and a few more with at least 1 CO+2 WL or 2 CO+1WL.

Since there is no way to know how high or low the chance is for our kid's WL to be converted, as we don't know how many WL for that particular domain the schools have given out, we just tell our kids to focus on the PSLE.

Don't worry about the conversion. A few more days left! All the best!

My kid received 2 WL for the sports domain in Swiss and ACI barker. We have to weigh the pros & cons on which school should we choose in end Oct. Tough decision…
