You might have a lot of applicants, but if they are all (for example) 234-245, then your COP will be 234 if you can take them all in, or higher than 234 and probably around 236-237 if you can't.<br /><br />From historical analysis (which you can do if you have the time at MOE's website), the COP seldom varies by more than 1-2 points. The only exceptions are when a school changes status or programme very suddenly. That normally means a stronger 'pull' factor and students with high t-scores will enter the queue. If enough of them are 'pulled', then the COP will likely rise.<br /><br />Just think 'market forces'. You can also think of DSA etc as 'market failure'. <img src="https://forum.kiasuparents.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f642.png?v=f4f27f6278e" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--slightly_smiling_face" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":)" alt="🙂" /><p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/310213</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/310213</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[autolycus]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Dec 2010 09:38:38 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to PSLE COP 2009 on Tue, 07 Dec 2010 09:29:24 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p></p><blockquote><b>tisha:</b><blockquote style="border:1px solid black">Who decides the COP?

Essentially, the reported COP is the lowest t-score that a school has accepted that year. The COPs are not decided by the schools.<br /><br />To conclude: COP for a given year is established AFTER all students have already been posted. It is then reported to give a crude guideline for the next year's intake to think about.<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/310205</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/310205</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[autolycus]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Dec 2010 09:29:04 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to PSLE COP 2009 on Tue, 07 Dec 2010 08:45:43 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">Who decides the COP?
