Hi Whitely,

is your dd in NH or manage into RV? I guess she is happy even if she stays put as the students whom I spoke to or appear to me that they like the school v much

Hi julongmum
My daughter stay put in Nan Hua, she didn't get into RV, after school started 1 week, she was settling down well and since we still receive no new from RV, we have decided to stay in Nan Hua, now she is happy and
enjoying school, by the way, my dd is in 102, any parents there?

what is her achivement in Clementi Town?

Hi Whitely,

My dd is also in NH. It was our 2nd choice and 1st at RV. I persuded my dd to send in appeal at RV but she decided to stay with NH, we respected her decision as we also agreed that NH is a very good sch. Like mentioned by Diasyt on her earlier post that the main difference is that RV is on IP, NH also nutures good students in both character and academic. So whatever the outcome of yr appeal, yr child would be settled in either good sch.

Hi julongmum

Thank for yr advice. We actually thought of without going thru 'O' level exam will eliminate the unecessary exam stress, so we wanted to place dd in RV which is IP but seem like things are not going our way, perhaps nature has decided what is the best for her, anyway, dd is also happy with NH and already making new friends in her class.

Hi Whitely,

Our very helpful and kind Daisyt has replied you on your query and also in the RV thread. However, I understand how you and your daughter feel. My daughter cried when she received her PSLE result. She was expecting much better result. She wanted to get in RV so much and first thing that came to her mind was there's no hope. Her dream shattered. It was a real pleasant surprise for us that she got in. Nan Hua was her second choice too. During the selection process, I got to understand each school better. I must say in my opinion, Nan Hua is also a very good school. I would be very happy too if my daughter get into Nan Hua. They have all the good programs and produce excellent O level results. Well behaved students and niche in performing arts. The only difference is that RV is IP. You never know, good news is already on its way. It would be nice if your daughter's wish could be gratned. We are all with you. Good luck !

Hi
I guess we have done what we can and shall leave the rest to nature. Shall keep you all posted if we really get in RV. Many thanks for all your well wishes and advice!

Hi,


What is the cut off point for appealing RV? My dd scored 249+2 HMT but still on waiting list. Any info or advice?

Hi whitely, this year COP for RV is 251 (include HCL), so your dd should have a good chance. Why don't you try calling the school to check.

Hi Daisyt

Thanks for you reply but school already started and I called this morning,
they said no vacancies for the time being. Heard some student with same score but got posted by MOE, no need to appeal. Don't understand why and my dd isvery dissappointing.....

Thanks ! 249 plus 2.
