That said, how do we know what is the appeal procedure like ?

Stricter rules on JC transfers

http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/educatio ... -transfers

Just like secondary schools, junior colleges have now been told not to accept transfer requests from students who fail to meet their minimum academic cut-off.

Previously, JCs which still had vacancies after the initial posting exercise had the discretion to take in students who appealed for a place despite not meeting the cut-off point. Some popular JCs received as many as 100 appeals a year.

But The Straits Times understands that last month, the JCs were told by the Ministry of Education (MOE) that they can consider only appeal students who have met their minimum O-level score.

Earlier this month, The Straits Times reported how a similar directive was issued to secondary schools. They were told not to accept transfer requests from pupils whose Primary School Leaving Examination scores did not meet the schools' cut-off point.

Principals and vice-principals who spoke to The Straits Times said this tightening is meant to reduce the churn of students between schools after the posting exercise.

Ms Ek Soo Ben, principal of Victoria Junior College, said this would ensure that all schools treat appeals the same way, and the system \"honours academic merit and fairness\" .

\"There is room for other types of talents and interests through the DSA,\" she added.

The DSA, or direct school admissions, route lets schools take in students based not just on academic ability but also other talents such as sports and the arts. The exercise takes place in May to August yearly before students sit the O levels.

The MOE told The Straits Times that as students are posted to schools based on \"objective and transparent measures of academic merit\", appeals \"must (also) be aligned to these principles\". This is to be fair to students who missed out during the initial posting phase.

A spokesman added that schools informed O-level students about this when they received their results on Monday. They have until today to submit their choices of schools for their post-O-level education. They can choose from 17 schools which offer the two-year A-level course, such as Anderson JC and Catholic JC, and another two schools which offer the International Baccalaureate programme.

Secondary school leavers can also opt for the polytechnic route.

While some have wondered if the stricter rules mean that there will be more pressure on students and pupils to chase that last point, others agree that this is a fairer system.

Darshini Balamurugan, 16, who hopes to get into Raffles Institution in this year's posting exercise, said: \"It's only fair that you meet the cut-off point of a school and deserve to be there. If you miss the cut-off and still get in by appeal, it's not fair to others who could have got in but didn't appeal.\"

But 16-year-old Amanda Gan, who is hoping for a place at St Andrew's Junior College, said: \"The rule is fair but there should be some leeway for those whose marks are very close to the cut-off.\"

Now it's waiting time till 28 Jan. Let's hope the COP doesn't go up this year and may everyone get into your first choice.

Perhaps we come again on 28 Jan to talk abt the posting.

Good Luck!!!

JonC:
the above mentioned case is the L1R5 meets the chosen JCs' COP but posted to lower choice of Poly course. But in the end, appeal back to one of the higher choice JC is successful because the L1R5 fits (no other special considerations).

That's pretty normal. If the COP is 8, it just mean that the last qualified person acccepted into that JC is 8. Not all 8 will get in. Your 8 could be 12-4=8, where as the last person's 8 could be 10-2=8.

But if you get 7, then you should get this instead of the choice below this ...

JonC:
2. There are situation that happens last year where student's L1R5 is single digit, choosing JC (meeting COP) as first few choices and follow by a choice Poly course. Parent was surprised, of course they appeal and go to JC finally.

Understand rule 1 applies in situation of limited seats, that is a -0 is higher than -1 than -2 than -3 than -4.

Didn't ask the detail (bonus points if any) of what happen last year, the above mentioned case is the L1R5 meets the chosen JCs' COP but posted to lower choice of Poly course. But in the end, appeal back to one of the higher choice JC is successful because the L1R5 fits (no other special considerations).
JonC:
3. Based on what happen in the recent PSLE to Sec1 incident where many appeal failed, do be careful of the choices you put on the paper or MOE website.
This year many parents make noise about school told them that school are told by MOE not to accept appeal as far as possible. This situation may happen in JC1 appeal.


All in all, just have to make careful consideration before submitting with no regrets later.

At the most I could think is minus 4 using HMT & CCA? With a COP of 2 should be able to enter RJC & HCI??


Yes, 2 pointer is definitely safe to enter RI n HCI.

If a student have 6A1 which is 6 points mean no chance to enter RJC wich COP is 3 points?

See you minus how many points from the 6 points.

JonC:
Honestly, here are some consideration points, decision is still yours,


1. If the JC has 2 seats left, 1st student has the raw score that meets COP, 2nd student has raw minus 2 points or 1 point that meets the COP, 3rd student has raw minus 4 that meets COP, which 2 the school will take based purely on scores is a no brainer.
Clearly stated in the booklet, that in this case, if all 3 have same nett scores, priority goes as follows:
1) first goto singaporean, then PR, then overseas students

2) if all 3 are singaporean, then gross score takes precedence (eg 10-2 = 8 gets priority or 12-4 = ๐Ÿ˜Ž

3) if all 3 are still the same, eg 10-2 = 8, then computer will randomly select

If a particular JC's cop is say 6, that doesn't mean if you get 6, you will get in. It only means that the last person who entered that JC was 6. Example the last person that went in may get 8-2=6, but those who got 10-4 = 6, may not get in.

Hi Jon

Like to have a rough gauge for my ds next year.

zbear:
Pls define partial? Does it mean that only half of those who get 5 will get in?


If yes, how does the system differentiate one from the other when both have 5 points?
I dont think it's half. But I do know 3 boys with 5 net, 1 got in and 2 didnt. Another 4 boys with 6 net, 2 got in and 2 didnt.
I dunno how many are in this situation.
They are all from the same school and vying for the same affiliated JC so it looks weird.
Those who didnt get in are all appealing so it cld be a happy turn of event for them later.

I think this question has been asked before but I would like to know - if you choose a combi like PCME or BCME, it will come under the category of Science - this means L1R5 for entry into RJC/HCI is 3 points.


But if you take a hybrid combi, what does it come under? Science or Arts?

Also, do all JCs have hybrid combi?

Thanks.
In RJC, hybrid comes under Science.
