[quote=\"greentrees\"]Hi, I'm surprised no one is talking about NJC. Is that NJC is now not ranked as one of the top choices? Checked historical records, its COP was not that low though. DD applied for NJC. Anyone cares to share your opinions and / or experience? Tks in advanced.

My DS applied Njc also. Interview and day activities will be on 25/08. The day I went down to the school to submit the document and checked with the admin staff, she told me around 200 were selected for the 2nd round. Any idea how many pupils will be enrolled through dsa? We didn't attend the open house, did the school mentioned during open house? What we like Njc is their small class size, boarding programme and it's just next to my dd primary school. By the way, we received the gat result from Njc last Friday.

Anyone can share what is last year intake for NJC DSA?[/quote]NJC yearly intake is 200 and about 50% via DSA. They have another intake after the O Levels, and yearly cohort for A Levels is about 700+

Hi julialai

Hi GoodDad,

My DS is from mainstream, awarded CO.

As from this year, we are told that we have to specify which track we are choosing, there is a separate code for Express and IP. The allocation of students to IP now comes under MOE's centralised posting. So COP-IP is now determined by less predictable market forces of demand and supply. This being a dragon year with a larger cohort and relatively stiff competition, many of us were jittery about the unknown - how the COP will turn out to be- when we first heard about it. Someone asked the principal if the school will be catering to the larger dragon cohort by increasing its S1 places, the answer is 'No' due to staff and resource constraints. The enrollment at S1 stays at 180 places for IP. Hence, most of us expect the COP for IP to move up. We thought we detected a hint in the principal's talk..

Julia - thanks for explanation and sharing with us what Mr Hodge said ...
If ACSI IP COP goes up above 255-257 - :faint:
Will be a strong dragon cohort in ACSI IP :nunchuk:

Welcome!

So working is 100 CO + 100 WL = 200 Shorlisted. 100 CO usually enroll 50% (according to the no. from another school), 50 out of 100 WL get CO in the end, hence, in total, 150 out of 200 will get CO.

Happy No.

Hi julialai

Thank you for your info.

The CO is for IP track? So, I guess the new S1 intake process does not affect you right?
