Why it seems the cop of this is higher than before?

The students are actually less than before.

RAFFLES INSTITUTION

268

No short cut - do as more exercise as your ds/dd can

My son is not Singapore Citicen now, if he transfer to SC in future, can he apply for EESIS (he got 268 in this PSLE)?

So only 900 seats for non-DSA? My son got 268, how much possibility?
RI - 1st choice
HCI - 2nd choice
:?

268 = can go any school for your son except NYGH and RGS, even 299 oso cannot get in for your son

Thanks a lot.

[quote=\"sunj1252\"]A foolish question: who know the percentage of each score slot?eg: >270, 260-270, 250-260, etc

believed to be as follows :

Top 10% = 250 and above (entry point for many IP schools or to-be IP schools)
---about 4500 kids

Top 3 % = 260 and above (bench mark for EESIS)
---about 1350 included in the 4500 above

so, if you look at HCI+NYGH+RGS+RI = 1800 vacancies...and not all above 260 will choose any of the the top 4 ...... hence the cop for the top four should be around 260 and difficult to be much higher except for the odd one with affiliation but then the number of girls from NYPS with scores above 250 is about 100 only

Good analysis. One additional data point is that approximately 50% of the above 1800 vacancies have already been taken up during DSA. I would estimate that 70% to 80% of those DSAed into these 4 schools have PSLE scores around or above 260. What is your take?[/quote]

Thanks a lot, Master.
But I have already submitted online. Should/Can I amend it now?

Hi Sunj1252, curious to know why you call vlim and Pen \"Master\". Don't you know one is a sexy hippo while the other is a voluptuous panda and both are Mummies? :evil:

When you use the word \"Master\", slavery comes to mind. :evil:

Hi, maybe call you \"expert\" is better - you all are so warm heart to give us professional suggestion and advice.

My son got 268. Is it ok to select RI as only one choice? Or need to select other schools for backup?

Your DS will definitely get into RI 1st choice. However the S1 posting instructions require you to input 6 options despite you being very sure of getting your 1st choice. So, in other words, put in the other 5 \"for display only\"

Thanks a lot, Master.

It should be ok to put RI as first choice, but best fill up all 6 choices in case.

In case this yr RI cop is 269.. :siam:[/quote]
Master, you scare me
