I told her no harm filling in 6 sch since they are so confident getting their 1st choice.
Factually, your friend's daughter t-sore is way above her dream school's previous year's COP.Steadyberry:
Actually I hv friend asking me the same que. since her dd’s t-score is way above her dream school, why should she be bothered to fill in the rest of the 5 choices. If this is not allowed, then how about putting the same school for all 6 choices?
Few years ago, someone got 220+. Then the mother put all 6 choices above 230 thinking that moe will post to one of her choices. In the end, she was posted to a school near her place & of course, the cop of the school is below her daughter’s t score & not above.
However, last year's COP is not necessary the same as this year's COP. If for some unexplained reasons, the COP goes up way above last year's, she will be stuck with the MOE lottery machine (which tends to throw out some poor options).
Before we dismiss the above as 'impossible', bear in mind that BREXIT is not a figment of our imagination and Donald Trump did become POTUS.
So, fill up the rest of the options with logical choices even if you think liu lian bao jiak. -

RE: Raffles Institution (Year 1-4)
Thanks lalaland for your reply.
My ds was super excited when he was selected as he had no experience at all. He doesn’t mind going for his trainings.
How about VIA? Is it compulsory or the boys need to meet a minimum number of hours?
TIA. -
RE: Raffles Institution (Year 1-4)
Hi, any experienced parents can tell me more about CCA? I am a bit confused. I know that we do not need the 2 points to go Jc. My ds is in sports. I notice the teacher i/c is very strict on the attendance. Something like a max of 1 letter from parents & the rest can only be MC, per month. They also need to do VIA but I am not sure is it compulsory or not. My ds tries to attend everything but what will he achieve in the end? Whereas my friend’s ds is very relaxed. He is in ug which is 2 times a week. During this June holiday, her ds was supposed to attend 2 times but he didn’t go. My friend has no intention of writing any letters to inform the teacher i/c too because no one requested for one. Thanks in advance.

RE: Winter Clothes
Anyone knows how to wash down jackets? According to the care label, no dry cleaning and the jacket is to be hand washed using non detergent soap. I tried a few supermarkets but not able to find any no soap detergent. Please help. Thanks.
