If u look at NYPS’s stats, it typically conduct balloting for those staying within 1km under phase 2C. So looking at its location in Bt Timah, majority of its students would be residing in those areas, and houses there dont come cheap.


Talk about celebrities, I know that Chen Liping’s child is also in NYPS this year, hee…

is it because most residents residing in bt timah area have deeper pockets to give their kids a headstart?

..or maybe these kids were the 'spill-over' from those failling to ballot into all those 'good schools' in the area.. after all I believe these kids would have been well prepared in anticipation to get into those 'good schools'.. logical??

to find any schools' balloting stats, first, you can go to MOE website to see which \"Planning Area\" the school is under. Then do a search under the Registration Thread for the area's name. The balloting links is on the first post of the thread.
