Not to worry abt the streaming. This year it seems quite jumbled up. I know of two same tscore in far apart classes. And also lower tscore in higher classes. HOL also mentioned that class allocation is random. But I still think that the top 1 or 2 batches is those with 250 above, so that they can do the IP soft launch. Rest are random.Hi aljh,
my boy in 112, he was from FMS (p), have 3 FMS (p) classmates in SJI, but different class... hope the classes are not sort by result..else he is in last class :nailbite:
saw from SJI website,only sec 3 then have biology textbook, think the physics and chemistry textbook we bought may also be used in Sec 3
Hi rubydoll,
I stay at Pasir Panjang, he take school bus in the morning ($130 /single trip), bus pickup

30 mins quite OK, mine takes 1hr+ -

Just received principal's letter to sec 3 parents. There are 2 top classes for this yr sec 1 for GeP and those with >250. They will be doing the Pre IP programme. No banding from this yr onwards for all the other students.

How many major exams? Same as pri CA1/CA2/SA1/SA2? How many subjects in total? Are the notes/worksheets provided by scool enough? Need to buy assessment books from popular?
