      NYGH WL is as good as a CO. My DD had a WL last year and like what Mdm Heng would have mentioned at the briefing, based on past 11 year records, all WL traditionally would be converted to a CO, except for Year 2014.

            I'm not understanding this ... are they saying most their COs turned down offer? Thanks.

                Or...

                They use statistical data from the past years to correctly estimate the number of people accepting / rejecting the offers and also did not over-commit the CO/ WL numbers?

                  You might want to check this again with the school. According to the CO letter I've received, the place is only confirmed if my child ranks it as first choice in the option form.

                  Thats exactly what is written in my son's NUSH WL letter too.... it clearly says place is Only confirmed if you put NUSH as your 1st choice.


                  Yes if for WL, MUST put as 1st choice to be considered.[/quote]Could be the case the student has 2 WL. So can still put them in rank order and if first choice WL did not get converted to CO, can still be considered for second choice WL ? So can still put NUSH WL as second choice if required ?

                    Could be the case that NYGH CO cases got multiple CO offers being one of the top girls school, so some would eventually turn down NYGH and go to RGS, NUSH etc ?

                      I see ... then school's wise. Anyone knows the COs & WLs # given?

                        DS classmates also received snail mail for rejection.
