      I need help. If my child got 254+1, is it ok if I apply as such

      1) Dunman High
      2) TJC
      3)Cedar IP
      4) Chij st Nic IP
      5) Cedar Express
      6)CHIJ Express
      Would really appreciate some advise.
      Seems fine. Cedar IP may have a higher COP than TJC and you may end up getting your 4th or 5th choice if you dont get your 2nd choice.

              just FYI, any of the above schools, the +2 is useless! unless SAP schools.

                  My son will be P6 next year. Prior to this year, he only has Chinese tuition once a week because we do not speak Chinese at all at home. This year we added English tuition and Science tuition just because his results dropped from 90+ to 80+. How not to feel stress when getting to good secondary school is already hard enough but now there is IP and IP cut-off point is higher than O Level?


                  Why create another level of elitism?

                  If IP cut-off point is the same as for O level, wouldn't it be less stressful for parents and the kids?
                  No pain no Gain. As i can see from your words, chinese tuition once a week is that enough for a P6 students? Adding of English tuition and Science TUition is Only Just Because your son s results dropped then you looking for help from tuitor?? Are you sure you are really helping your kids using the correct way?

                  Why you never exam and realize your own mistake ? BUt only keep saying anything about level elitism? Hey, it seems like you are not living in Singapore? How come you dont know this is a contury full of intellectual elitism? You are seeking for less stressful life? Go holiday la...Right? :siao:

                  Be grateful to those people who ever helped you before.

                      Agree definitely. But always expect a turn and steering on safely in vigilant and soberness spirit, taking heed that an accident can destroy everything.

                        YES it is...because it is a national examination at the end of 6 years of primary school.
