      What’s the COP for SMSS Express and NA this year?

      192 for NA. I can’t remember express stream.

      I heard it is 243 for O-Level. Do call the school if you need to confirm.

      All the best.

          Last year (2020),

          at end of Sec 2 streaming,
          to choose Sec 3 subject combination.

          Appreciate this school !

          St Margaret Secondary school is kind, generous, compassionate, have a big heart, considerate, by giving chance to end of Sec 2 students to take Sec 3 Additional Maths, for students who have achieved minimum B4 (60 %), at Sec 2 year-end exam.

          Many, many Thanks !
          Appreciation, to the Maths HOD, and also St Margaret school Principal, for making this possible

          because

          a lot of other Secondary schools in Singapore, required better than B4, before can allow their students to take Sec 3 Additional Maths. For this, i truly appreciate & applaud schools like St Margaret, that show compassion and are willing to give chance to pupils, who keenly desire the opportunity to learn (study) Upper Secondary \"A\" Maths. Once again, Thank you very much !

          Why use the word, \"compassionate \" ?

          Reason ?


          Because

          Had the pupil remained in some other Secondary school, not studying in St Margaret, whereby the minimum requirement imposed upon is no lesser than a Distinction (A1 or A2), at Sec 2 year-end streaming exercise (exam), then this pupil would have been denied the chance to study (learn) Sec 3 Additional Maths. The door would have been shut closed, out of bound, for this pupil. No chance to learn Upper Sec \"A\" Maths, at all. Yes, there are some schools like this, very stringent in their requirement to do \"A\" Maths.


          What's worse is,
          the student's misery doesn't just end at Sec 4 (O-level) full-stop,

          because

          when move up onto Junior College (JC1) later on, because this pupil didn't do any O-level \"Additional\" Maths before, hence the pupil's JC1 choice of subject combination become very restricted, narrowed-down, limited.

          Many JCs' requirement to do A-level \" H2 \" Maths is that, the student must have sat for Additional Maths (O-level) pre-requiste, first.


          may refer to 2020 (last year) Sec 2 year end streaming exercise slides, found inside SMGS website

              Jurong ?

              That’s not far…

              I have a student in SMSS - she stayed in Johor.
              Never once late for school !

                If your daughter takes the first train from TUAS LINK MRT (the furthest) at 6am and change to Circle line to Farrar road MRT - the entire journey is about 53 min. (say one hour) - she should be able to reach school by 7am

                  I am staying at Jurong West, looking at applying to SMSS, via DSA (Visual Arts).

                  Any parents can share what is the chance?
                  My gal results will probably land her in between Express/NA. Hence, looking at going to SMSS, through DSA, but to NA, possible?
