DS got Victoria IP. Score 257.


Put RI as first choice, obviously knowing chances are less, but being Kiasu.
Put NJC as 2nd choice and VS IP as 3rd choice.

Appealed to RI and NJC. RI chances are very very slim. NJC may have some hope.

Tmr we are reporting to VS. Not sure whether to buy books, uniform etc. If we dont buy tmr, will the school open on other days to buy or they juz point to vendors? Confused.

Any KP experts can advise?

TIA

the bookshop should be opened till end of the year for purchases.

zeemimi,

Thx for the info.

Quite surprise that DHS COP is 256.

I have 2 friends DS/DD, 254+2 and 255+2 did not get into DHS. Also another friends DS 257+1 did not get into HCI

Is those COP given by MOE does not include HCL points?

MOE COPs are inclusive of HCL points.

Yes ,HCL points does not include .

No, MOE COPs are inclusive of HCL points. They just give you the T-score of the last student accepted into the school, so 256 could be 256, 255+1, 254+2 or 253+3. But a flat 256 is ranked higher than a 255+1 etc.

Hi, just came back from ACS(I) reporting


Tscore 255 will be posted to IP program. Below 255 will be posted O level. No appeal allow.

Informaiton for those who report tomorrow. In summary, the reporting process is very fast and smooth. Quite impressive.

1)\tNo speech or talk. Just given a starter kid. The admin told us that everything you need to know is inside the kid. E.g. orientation program, school fee, Giro Form, text book list etc..

2)\tBring your PSLE EESIS form. They need it to calculate the school fee.

3)\tBring money or chq for Text book. No Nets or Credit Card

4)\tYou need to select to take or not to take HMT if you are offer

5)\tPlease high light to them if you are GEP students. According to the admin, they will place all the GEP students into the same class. There are about 2 -3 classes of GEP students for year 1 IP program

6)\tThose who drive need to pay $10 for the decal.

7)\tNo need to buy tie or badge. Unless you need extra. It will be given during the orientation

8)\tRegister for school bus if necessary. Bus school fee not know yet until they sort out the route

9) Can buy uniform, PE t-shirt, coperate shirt, Lab coat on the spot.

Total spend about $350 for everything.(exclude those reference books recommended by the book shop and school uniform)

Good luck
Cheers

$350 not inclusive of uniform ?
Starter pack must pay also right ?
And does this include the stuff from the co op indicated on their website ie the corporate t, stationary set and socks ?

Anyone can advise:
DD scored 247 , got in to nua hua ( 2nd choice), appealed to scgs before posting. Glad to know that the cut off point is lower and therefore she stands a better chance.
However as she now thinks that nan hua is too far and prefer bpgh (3 rd choice) . A classic example of how some children can be so fickle minded . Called bpgh , was told that if she appealed to bpgh and most likely she will be accepted and know by tmr then she cannot reject them and must take up their offer . That s why was hesitant to go to the school today. Thinking of should I wait for scgs which will will only let me know 1 or 2 weeks later or appealed to bpgh ?

Anyone can advise?
