Compare RGS vs NYGH

Jenn:
if you are in IP program, you still sit for O level HCL, get it done, and say good bye to CL / HCL in JC 1/2 unless you are doing Chinese History / Chinese Lit ............
However, if you are in IP program, then HCL has no significance for entry to JC. -
someone posted about chinese calligraphy being in the timetable for NYGH
may be it is part of enrichment program ? just like in NYPS, it is en enrichment program up to P3 level but it is timetabled alongside other subjects
BTW, both NYPS and NYGH is using the same coach for the chn calligraphy -

Last year's PSLE top scorer went to RGS, if not mistaken.
wonder if more china born students opt for NYGH vs RGS?
I would think it makes sense to do the opposite. Given RGS's culture, it would do the China born students more good to be in RGS, to be more exposed to the non-Chinese culture. -

And if it is true that RGS is moving in 2014 to Braddell, we may see the COP drop even more in the coming years.
but the fact is in recent years,
RGS COP is dropping in yr 2007 from 266 to last year of 260. -

I prefer RGS. Reason : it took my DD1 2 hrs to reach home after CCA when she was in NYPS, I do not wish to see her suffer for another 6 yrs. It's easier to travel to RGS. I let her made the final decision, DD1 chose RGS last year.Okay may be I should started another \"wicked\" thread.
If your girl has offers both from RGS and NYGH, which will you choose ? -

No lah, I'm not implying Braddell's fengshui is no good. :lol:
Just thinking that many students from NYPS, RGPS, SCGS, etc. may be residing near Bukit Timah area. If RGS moves to Braddell, it may defer some of these students from going to RGS at the new location. It would have been more convenient to go to NYGH or NJC instead. -
Busymom:
I don't think it will have that great an impact. If RGS is your dream school you will choose to go there no matter what. And Braddell is not that far from the current RGS location. It's only 10mins by car.No lah, I'm not implying Braddell's fengshui is no good. :lol:

I wish I have this kind of problem 8 years later...
when my dd is in P6...
I will let my gal choose the school herself, like what Augmum's dd said, must like the school. one other factor to consider is distance.

I don't think COP will be reduced just because there are fewer students residing near Bukit Timah area wanting to travel to Braddell. Firstly I believe RGS girls come from all over Singapore. While the traveling distance is a major consideration it would not outweigh the prestige offered by the school. Secondly girls residing near Bukit Timah doesn't equate better results IMHO.No lah, I'm not implying Braddell's fengshui is no good. :lol:
