Think the nos include pr n > 2km. Last info I got 60+ singapore citizens within 2km. But best to check directly with school.

[quote=\"aileenoo\"]When I left Haig Girls at 4, there are already 20 numbers taken up and it's all sc.

Looks like we will have to face another stressful day come this Tuesday for those > 2km.

20 numbers for today or in the afternoon only?

Just for afternoon alone....[/quote]So the trend repeat again this year, sudden surge of applicant on the last day of afternoon that caught everyone off guard. happened last yr too.

MBS, 40 seats.

52 applicants <1km at 11am.
Keeping fingers and toes crossed till balloting day!

So it is confirm balloting for MBS even below 1KM for SC? Oh no.... I told my colleague to consider Cedar or even St Anthony both co ed and even Tanjong Katong PRI but he didn't like the school to be too Ang mo....

out of curiosity, if it is over the vacancy,would those over2KM SC get in first or the PR below 2KM get in first?

SC over 2km will get in first, followed by PR<1km.

Thank you for the info.

MOE website show Haig Girls got 93 vacancies, 118 registered.

there's a difference of 25. Are these all SC, or inside got PR ?

Initially, there is 89 seats only and I believe parents withdraw and hop over to either TNP, NAPS or CHIJ Katong as there is a sudden increase in KCP registration today.

I hope those who last min withdraw wouldn't have to go thru balloting as I believe those who felt HGS was over spilling as by yday was alrdy left with only 2 seats and yet KCP was still with 22, seems more promising to get in without balloting. As they might have withdrawn from HGS as fear will have to go into balloting but didn't expect KCP also will face same situation.

I supposed the nos. 118 is including PR. How do we go abt finding out of balloting is required?

Still stress bat it since there is no actual info on it.

I almost wanted to change plan and withdraw my girl today from HGS to go KCP due to I felt KCP will be more strict, better English and affiliation to KCS, but after praying I felt just let God handle it.

Now, have to wait for news if balloting is needed for us.

Blessing to all who needs to face balloting and :congrats: to those who secured a seat for your darling.
