Secondary School Selection 2012

[Skyed]

The only advice I can give is probably get ready some answers to potential questions asked during the interview so you won’t be stumped.

Student of PSLE 2012:

No.

U might like to explore appealing just in case... Like dhs is 256, scgs is 252, tjc is 252 if you feel strongly u want a ip route. But have to hurry...

[Student of PSLE 2012]

Thanks!

It means a Merit in Higher Chinese. A Pass gives you +1, a Distinction gives you +3. But this only applies to SAP? schools. I can't remember if it applies to only SAP, or only non-SAP.

Thanks Skyed. I guess that won't be in my DS results cuz he is having difficulties in even mainstream Mandarin and Mandarin is my family's kryptonite. That language will prob pull his scores down cuz he is doing relatively well in his other subjects. All High As. Haiz.....

Don't worry, it's was the same for me in primary school, and has been the same in sec school lol. I got A* for Math, Science and English in PSLE, and an A for Chinese (likely a low A). My T score was 254. Now in Secondary school, I'm expecting A1s for almost all my other subjects, yet I'm content with the B3 I've gotten for Chinese in mid year Os.

rrrrrr:

I went to Hwa Chong just now. The chance is slim as there is no vacancies currently. Anyway, just wait lah

River Valley is also a good school. I don't think appeal will be successful ad there will be 261 appealing as well.
