      Need some advice please!


      My daughter was posted to her 2nd choice (<10km away) of school which was nearer to our home as compared to her 1st choice (25km away).

      We appealed to her 1st choice of school on the day of S1 posting announcement. I have called the appealed school numerous times and was told that they are still shortlisting. They refuse to disclose if there was any withdrawal from the school and informed me that they will only called for those successful appeals by 1st week of January 2013. I was told that they will not inform those unsuccessful appeals because there were too many mass appeals for 2013 intake. FYI my daughter's COP was lower by 1 point to her 1st choice of school.

      My daughter told me last night that she decided not to wait for the appeal and will stay onto her posted school considering the location factor. She asked me to proceed buying the school uniform and books.

      What will you do if was in my position? To wait or not to wait?
      May I know what are the 2 schools and her t-score.

              Frankly, no principal knows how many students are appealing and will be successful in transferring to another school. It has to be new seats been added or set aside for appeal cases by some schools, that starts the ball rolling and causes the ripple effect throughout. This movement or transfer process could last into the 2nd week of January.

              With every transfer case, an opening elsewhere is also been created. So, there is nothing one could do but to sit out.

                    I am also curious to know.

                    In the HCI's enrolment list, there are 440 students, that means, they have reserved more than 10 places for appeal cases. I have heard that t-score 258 has successfully appealed into RI. Appealing seems a mystical process and is up to the school discretion.

                        have to mention that both of them are National sports finalists, maybe that helped.
