another possible reason is … RI is a top boys school.


so to match RI boys calibre - RGS also need to take in top girls, not so much as take in affliated girls. Because come yr 5 & 6 A level, they study together.

:rotflmao: matching of equals theory...
RGS has never had affiliated girls and like what earlier said doesn't need to
The sec schs with affiliated primary schools have an obligation to fulfill.
Affiliated sec schools should be viewed in different categories from those who do not have affiliation from COP angle.

On the other hand, RI and HCI both have no affiliated primary schools yet S1 COPs are similar. They are real close competitors... :nunchuk:

My dd and I were really surprised at how few of her cohort is choosing NYGH over RGS........likewise for the boys with the vast majority choosing RI over HCI......I really dun quite understand y when both are equally good schools... is it just this year or gep students?

Errrrrrr ....
My Gal just related to me her Classmate put RVH as 1st Choice, RGS 2nd ....
May Be the Only Exceptional One?

phtthp:

but why do parents want to 'abandon' RGS, after putting it as 1st choice ?

As Sista Trex8 has shared, Even if it's put as 2nd Choice, RGS sends the Email.
So Guess it's Auto-generated to Act as an Acknowledgement of Receipt,
And Reminding PArents and Gals like in the case of Sista Trex8 .... Still Can Amend to RGS as 1st Choice, B4 28/10/11 3pm!

Maybe RVH is nearer to her home and is more suitable for her academically?

That’s a wise decision bec it’s pointless to go to a premier school that’s beyond your ability only to struggle and be bottom of the cohort. That would be bad for the child’s confidence and self-esteem.
