wow, went out for 4 hours and this thread grown by 10 pages !


Congrats to all we continue to receive CO!

For those yet to receive CO or not successful, don’t give up - work hard with the target in mind ! You can do it…one of the character you learn in Pri 5 / 6 as part of total defence : resilience !! Cheong ah …for the PSLE

All the best for the PSLE !!

now old man must go back to work …US time

Ngbrdad, you shouldn’t worry about that. DS is in ACS, and boys all mix very well. All good kids; not flash. The kids are no different from kids in any other gep school - focused on getting grades (very competitive), playing with friends, deciding which school to go to etc. Parents of these kids have to work too, and worry about our kids’ future - so we’re all pretty much in the same boat with everyone else.

ACSI is close and convenient for us.
Will keep that in mind if need to apply thru S1 posting.

Yes he is a die-hard ACSian so I suppose it is a no-brainer. He thinks the IB will be more his cup of tea.[/quote]
A LOt of ACSIAN are very loyal and usually prefer to conyinue their study in ACS school. Good Loyalty.

A colleague told me that IB programme is a much more recognised programme (compared with A Levels) for uni in US. Anyone has more info to share on this?

Yes, I think it is true. One of my friends during her 2-year stay in states wanted to pick up a course but none recognized her Singapore certs. She had diploma from SP, n they told her that is not IB - they only recognize IB. But not sure what RI n HCI will do to help the graduates get into these overseas schools.

No matter what still need to do SAT.
