Sorry to interrupt the forum. I’d like to ask if my son still stands a chance of appeal into Year 5 in ACSI if his nett score for O level is 7, after (9 minus 2). He was from a uniformed group and took part in several Science competitions in his Sec 3 to early Sec 4 years.


Thank you.

Hello everyone.


I am a foreign student currently studying in a secondary school here, taking the GSCE O level next year. After O level, I have been wondering where to go next and have in mind to take IB (International Baccalaureate) in ACS(I).

However, a check of the ACS(I) website does not state how a O level student can get into the school at Year 5. It only states that it will administer tests (GAT, ENG, MATH) for prospective students (local and overseas) and this costs $300.

Also, foreign students, if admitted through this exam, need to pay a one-time fee of $4000.

1. So does ACS(I) actually admit students from the O level track? Do they bother about students’ L1R5? is there such an admission procedure (through O level) in ACS(I)?
2. And if I am going into ACS(I) through this track, do I need to pay $4000, which is a huge sum.


Thank you in advance.
