      My son asked me this question that bothered me, hence would like to seek advice from experienced parents here.


      His first choice is WL and second choice is a CO. If due to whatever reasons the WL does not materialised, will their be a chance that his 2nd choice school will reject him becos he has put them as 2nd choice?
      If that is the case my son will be empty handed.

      Hope do get some answers here before he comes home. TIA
      Don't need to worry. This will not happen. As long as he has a CO now, he will be given the CO if he is not accepted by the other WL school.

                every school hopes to attract the best students, that is why they are willing to co-ordinate the appeals and transfers even though MOE says ..............but in any case the independent schools have 100% discretion on admission


                Then what happen if a 269 appeal after 259 who has taken up the last vacancy ? How they attract the best student ?

                Unless the T-score is so high that they will admit you right away, in most cases, they will wait till a certain deadline and then assess all appeals cases together. As to how they assess the appeals applicants, we don't know.
                T-score, GAT, SA1 (P6 GEP)?

                      Hi All Dad and Mum


                      Can you share what program you have plan for your DS and DD during the 3 months long break after PSLE? Besides taking break going for holidays, after that what else?

                      Any enrichment class like games, sports, robotic, Math, English, Chinese, German, Japanese, oversea exchange program, etc..

                      Anyone can suggest or share what are you going to do with your DS/DD during the long break?

                      Anyone going for any IP school or IP program preparation classes?

                      DS was thinking to learn drum or maybe guitar. Any recomendation?

                      Good idea.

                      I am thinking to let my DS do some part time job to earn some pocket money. Any recommendation?

                      He is too relax and money comes easy. :moneyflies: :moneyflies: :moneyflies:
