Lilo:

My DD told me that she want to go Cedar girls but she had a place in SCGS which she do not wish to drop it too. She said that she will accept SCGS but if PSLE result turn out to be good, she will want to move to Cedar. She said she attend one week SCGS and ask for transfer to Cedar. Can she do in this way? Will SCGS allow?

But Cedar and SCGS, which one is better?

Hi Shalom,
Please see FAQ 41 and 42 regarding DD going to SCGS for 1 week and then transfer to Cedar.

Cedar vs SCGS:
(without considering distance, school fees, uniform, infrastructure, location i.e. town or suburb)
My view is, it depends on DD's personality and what domain she DSA. If DSA via dance, SCGS is strong in dance. If DSA via sport, Cedar is strong in Track & Field. If DSA via academic, Cedar is proud to announce their success stories and 90 or 99% of O-levels enter JC (this was said during open house). Also, if DD is going to do MEP, I was told that Cedar has collaboration with TKGS for MEP. My feel is Cedar focus more on Sc & Technology (I may be wrong) since they are somehow affiliated with SUTD. Cedar also gives me the feel that it is like MGS of the east and more well known for their academic achievement as compared to SCGS (I may be wrong). These are just my views...so KSP pls don't :spank: me. Each of them has its own branding and it depends on what DD wants and what type of enviroment you want DD to grow up in.[/quote]

Hi Lilo, thanks for your clear explanation. My DD is under academic.
Now, headache, don't know whether want to accept SCGS or not. Look like Cedar is better.[/quote]

Lets go tea party tomorrow and find out more...I believe we may be asked to sign a form like VS.

I was fuming at the lack of news... Then heard the multiple \"klinks\" from nearby mailbox!!! The postman handed me the later when I told him my unit!!!

In times like this, the postman is really a very noble job. He probably attained job satisfaction by seeing your job.

He heard DD & I squeal too. :yikes:
