2010 PSLE: EESIS (top 3%) and 3rd Lang (top 10%) COP

Hi all,



EESIS determines the top 3% of the cohort while 3rd Lang option is for top 10%. The COP T-scores for both can be used to \"calculate\" the COPs of schools especially top schools like RI/RGS/HCI/NYGH/DH etc.

I thought EESIS is offered to the top 1/3 of students enrolled in IP schools. Not top 3% of cohort.

We gone through this last year...and we knew it is for top 3% after all the calculations.

Saw a statement, \" Your child/ward is offered EESIS as he/she has been offer DSA to IS.\" Not sure if all got into Independent school via DSA, whtehter GEP or not get EESIS?

261 (so far) for EESIS is the same as last year. So it is safe to say that COPs for top schools should be either same or lower (if someone can confirm he/she has EESIS below 261) than last year.

So, may be it's for DSA? BTW, now me and DD not sure should choose IP school or not? If yes, then would be DHS which DD very scared she cannot cope, me too.. worried for her, so thinking of Chung Cheng, we staying East, is this school going for IP ? But also heard that this is a very stressful school too, so we are very confused and afraid DD cannot cope with the very Chinese environment, her Chinese not strong. :?

It's offered to top3% and GEP students who meet the criteria.

Did anyone with 260 get EESIS?
