DSA 2017

[piggimum]

Hi,


I’m 1st time applying DSA for my boy this year. Would like to check :
1) Let’s say we applied for 3 schools, after the results are announced & all 3 got either CO/WL, must we indicate our preference for all the 3 schools or can we just select 2 schools?
2) If eg DS put sch A as 1st choice but is under WL, then sch B as 2nd choice but is under CO, how will the school allocate ? Will he still be able to get into sch B if sch A is not successful? Then if both also didn’t get in, will MOE allocate or he can still chose?

Thanks v much for the help!

My understanding is if you get a CO and list it as one of your choice, then if you are not successful for Sch A, you will get school B. If you only want sch A and no other sch, then you shld just list Sch A and leave blank and try again after psle. If you do not mind going to Sch B, then you can list Sch A follow by Sch B. If no vacancy for Sch A, they will post you to sch B and you cannot take part in PSLE posting.HTH
