jtoh:
Or maybe it was last year..I'll post the link tonight. The news report has a Bukit Panjang High cover boy who has 266 t-score and has chosen BPGH.
Is this new info? Where did you get it from?WeiHan:
I am not sure forumners have already read this piece of info.
Apparently, 500 students with t-scores more than 250 have opted out from the IP system and have chosen the O level, more structured, route. -

Assuming TOP 10% of 48500 students are above 250, with 4000 IP, it would mean 800+ students would need to go for O level program, this will push up top O level schools cut off point quite a fair bit.

Glad you found it. Is your dd applying for an IS school?maychang:
dd normal meanstream with T-Score 263+3, PSLE Result doesn't reflect the status of EESIS.
Yes. I have checked again the PSLE Result as what Jtoh advised, indeed my dd is eligible for the EESIS.
Yup...NYGS is the first choice of school. :)[/quote]

Elsewhere in the forum they've placed the number of IP places at about 4200/4300 and that's not counting the IP places at SOTA. So it's about 500-600 students who score more than 250 who will seek spots in the O level route. But that's assuming everyone wants to go IP. Not everyone does. -
Noticed that in 2009, when population is highest, the COP for all school is also highest; so I guess, this year COP will be higher.

That is based on the assumption on the number of places for O level in the good schools remain the same. As far as i know MOE controls and decides on the number of classes/students for Sec 1 in schools (Independent could be excluded?) and I am very sure some of the schools will have no choice but to increase their intake to accomodate the bumper crop of dragon year babies. -
They seemed to have gone down since I took my PSLE in 2008… Dunman had a COP of 260 my year, now it’s 257. Hwa Chong was 26something now it’s also 257.
