Hi floppy,


Ooops, wrote wrongly. Yes, CO in Hockey for VS IP.
If i understand your message correctly, my son's placement with school is secured if his PSLE score is within 20 and not COP of 9 based on the link?

This is what i am confused about. To me if my son need to achieve AL score of 9 to get into VS even with CO in Hockey, then why bother with DSA at all..

Thanks

Hi,


CO received from VJ Hockey (26th Aug2021) sent via email. No calls from VJ

I have a question, in the letter, it mentioned that my child must still be eligible to attend the Express course offered in VJ based on his PSLE results. The cut off point mentioned in enclosed link for for VJ is 9 points (O Level Results). In my mind, if i am very confident my son can get this score, i dont i need to go through the trouble of DSA?

Greatly appreciate any advice.

Hi,


My girl is in Sec1 this year and just curious, is it necessary to provide them with a laptop even though we have a desk top at home?

Thanks in advance for sharing

Hi,


Think it is not too safe to keep books in class. Moreover, if not wrong, locker rental fee is sgd10 per year, so better to rent, then kids can also keep a set of stationery in the locker… My dd has been complaining about her heavy bag

Hi, I will. Thanks

[quote=\"oosh\"]Hi,


Need some kind advice here. Initially i thought i had it all worked out until my daughter's friends and teacher start advicing my daughter on her choice. My dd score is 249+2 and below is our initial choice:

1) DH IP (Last year COP 256, 5points off)
2) Cedar IP (Last year COP 258, 9Points off as HMT 2 points not applicable)
3) Cedar Express (Last year COP 249)
4) SCGs Express (Last Year COP 248)
5) AH Express (Last year COP 243)
6) TKGs Express (Last year COP 235)

I know DH and Cedar IP is a far shot but we understand that there are 8 more schools offering IP, does that translate to more vacancies? Then again i also recognise that there are more children this year, being the dragon year. Is my choices wise?

My daugther's friends and teachers adviced her to drop her 1st two choices but we would like to try and will it impact her chance of getting into 3th or 4th choice if someone with same score put 3rd or 4th as their first choice. how likely will there be another student with the same score as my ds, quite likely me think?

Really headache.. deadline is tomorrow and still considering. faintz.

Will greatly appreciate any kind advice from people who knows how this thing really works.. Thanks

DHS and Cedar IP are out of your league. You will need at least 250 to try for any IP school, so given your dd's score of 249+2, her only option for IP is a SAP school and a new SAP school = SNGS IP. Your third and fourth choices are okay. It seems a waste to put AHS ahead of SCGS, which is a very good school and until recently had COPs of low 250s.

A few years back, a couple of students with 249+2 t-scores manage to get into RV for IP and are doing very well thereafter, even better than students with 260+ scores. One of the parents is still in the RV's thread.

I am not trying to ask you to place RV as a choice as i guess you might be staying in the eastern side. Just trying to let you know that lower t-scores may well turn out doing better later and there are such examples.[/quote]


Hi, thanks for your advice
