My daughter got 226 for psle. Is it wise for me to put my top 6 choice as


1. nan chiau
2. Chong Cheng
3.Katong Convent
4.Tkgs
5.Tks
6.tamasek?

Thanks

Sry, so just wanna ask again, is it wise for me to choose those choice of school?

Do you mind if I were to tell you the truth? :? The truth hurts, but I feel that you have made very unrealistic choices based on your score of 226, unless of course, there was a typo error and you had 236 instead of 226. I am assuming no typo error and that your score is 226.

My reasons - will touch on a school by school basis :

Nan Chiau - COP 231 but you have 226. I know that Nan Chiau is becoming a SAP school soon, but I am not sure if the HMT points takes effect with this year's PSLE cohort, but EVEN if they do take that into consideration, your enhanced T-score of 228 is a bit off from Nan Chiau's 231.

CCHM - COP 236, even higher than Nan Chiau's so if you cannot get into Nan Chiau, what are the chances of getting into CCHM with a higher COP than Nan Chiau?

CHIJ Katong - COP 228. You are 2 points off from CHIJ Katong's COP. CHIJ Katong is not a SAP school, so the 2 points HMT cannot be used, so you will be entering with 226. Okay, 226 is only 2 points off the COP, can try, but no guarantee.

TKGS - COP 233. Same senario as Nan Chiau and CCHM. If you cannot even get into Nan Chiau with a COP of 231, how is it possible to get into TKGS with 226, which is 7 points from their COP.

TKSS - COP 234. Same senario as NCH, CCHM and TKGS.

Temasek - COP 230. Again very unrealistic for a score of 226. Yes, Temasek's COP dropped from 232 to 230, but even with 230, you are 4 points off.

So my advice is to exercise your 6 choices VERY, VERY carefully! Do not anyhow dump and waste your choices. You will regret it.

Thanks! but there are no choices in the east side except those.:( I am appealing for my top 2 choice of school. since both schools are asking for my CCA. choosing school is a headache...

Sorry maid, for both cases, I was looking at COP 2008 PSLE.

ok RI COP 2009 PSLE was 259 and DHS COP 2009 PSLE was 258. Still, your chances better at DHS due to the +2.

Aiyo, no need to say sorry lah, we are all trying to help. :love:

Seriously, it is not that big a headache if you exercise your choices wisely. One has to be realistic with the choices, otherwise, it's regrets all the way .... Sorry, I hope I am not sounding too harsh here.

I suggest you erase everything & start on blank page again ... think carefully & re-evaluate the schools COP versus your daughter's T-score.

I would remove nan chiau & CCHM since your daughter's T-score is \"quite far off COP of these schools\" - be realistic.

OK since u r 2 points away from Katong Convent. U can try but please put it down as 1st choice. Please do not waste your first choice on some \"unreachable target\".

How about St Anthony's Canossian Convent - what is COP for this school? It is located in the East too.

Yes I agree...I would not like to get into a school based on the exact cut-off, should cut some slack....in order to balance well in the chosen environment.
