thanks qms & lexy for the information breakdown and analysis. yes. our application to ZDP is successful.


we found it puzzling as well as how can be so chun. 100 SC within 1KM and any others are not successful. thats reason for another call to clarify and we got a different response.

to floppy: its not that we are not letting the school or MOE do their job, but not a single breathing sound from the school is deafening, when all your surrounding friends are notified (everyday) about the need to go balloting or to withdraw. thus, a call this morning to check the breakdown of the applicants. we are not even asking if our application is successful to be honest. point noted to not stress over it.

Congratulations! It's usual for parents to be concerned.
Those who will be remain here next year have to repeat the same Q&A.

and I am more than happy to share more with others

I am thankful to get through the balloting for RMPS too, even though Alexandra was our preferred choice.


I believe balloting will be much more tense at Alexandra.

But if you had applied for APS this year, you wouldn't even need to go through balloting (assuming you are within 1 km of APS).

Anyway, :congrats: on getting into RMPS!

Thanks, qms!


Yiwen, same here, I am between 1-2km from Alexandra, so switched over to take the less risky option of Radin Mas over Alexandra kind of last minute.

Good choice. But its also quite sad only 1 applicant kena balloted out. If only can take in everybody. Den no need go through the balloting. only oversubscribed by 1 dunno wanna happy or sad sometimes. Put us all through the balloting. But well, its over now. Need to prepare the kids for their stressful education liao.

I thought 2 are balloted out? Since the twins took 2 seats?

twins is considered one seat if im not wrong. They only got one number ball.

I think the twins considered as having taken two vacancies, unless they are drawn last. This is according to the principal’s briefing before the start of balloting.
