You have to be staying at the address BEFORE applying for P1, and stay in it until your child is in Primary 2 if balloting was involved for the school. That is reflected by the address in your NRIC.

Chief,

But if they were to move to another location within the same distance category, or even closer to the school, is it not allowed?

...

automatically get converted, to become a H1 subject, during your computation of RP, for uni admission.

Also, if score poorly in Physics, perhaps some Engineering faculty, cannot get in.


I dare not imagine, that degree of great competition, fighting to enter uni ( NUS, NTU, SMU)

Ya, in the beginning, sounds very nice to hear students telling people around them,

\"hey !
I am taking 4 H2 subjects, not 3 H2 ... \"

Wait until, the time comes ... when u compute your RP.


RP : Rank points

For a student taking 4H2s, the worst performing H2 will not be \"automatically\" converted to H1 and rebased to 70RP. This will only be done if it helps improve the RP. If it doesn't improve the RP, it will only be 3H2+GP.

Hi qms,

Your son or daughter studied before in NYJC. You have contacts too, right ?

Err.. I wished my son or daughter had studied in NYJC. Then I would be able to provide information on their past years' A Levels results rather than see the posts made to and fro here.

Furthermore, I would have shared the school's statistics if I had them.

So, will you be able to provide such information next Friday? :please:

Is easy to get insider info, about NYJC.

Why ?

Because

some of my close friends' sons + daughters, are already inside NYJC now. So during house visiting or casual chit chat, when they talk about what's happening inside their respective JCs, already know a lot of insider info about NYJC. All the more, because NYJC is the talk of the town now, esp. over this most recent saga about patching the ... loop hole thing. Is all over in some other forum, too. You may read here too :-

...

You have all these contacts? Then should have asked them for NYJC's A Levels results for the past few years...

Can you ask your contacts? I am sure members here would appreciate such insider information immensely since it's so difficult to obtain it.

Goodness. It seems like we need a phd to understand all the rules for admission!

In any case, @phtthp's last post sounds plausible to me. So it seems that she is saying that some nett 5 students do get in NYJC, but not all. Am I right?

Yes.

Just like for RI. The COP this year is net 4. However, some net 4 students didn't manage to get in. The cut-off could be 7-3 so those 8-4 didn't get in. The cut-off could even be 8-4, but because there were fewer seats left than the number of the 8-4 applicants, some of them didn't end up being balloted in. Please note that this is just my example because I do not have any evidence to prove that the net 4 students who didn't get in belonged to the 8-4 group.

For NYJC, as long as there are vacancies left for net 5 students, those 6-1 will get in first, followed by 7-2, etc. So, as long as there are vacancies left after accepting all the net 3 and 4 students, and the remaining number of vacancies is higher than the number of 6-1 applicants, all 6-1 applicants get in. So, in a sense, there's no risk for the 6-1 applicants? Again, it depends on demand and supply.

Hi @phtthp, someone reported the following:
\"Net 5 scorers still get admitted to Nyjc.
Admission is by Merit.\"

Can you please confirm your findings? Thank you.

Chief,

COP for NYJC (Science) this year is net 5. However, we do not know the raw score of the last net 5 student who managed to get in.

Hence, phtthp mentioned that it was\" safer\" to put EJC (Science) rather than NYJC (Science) if the student scores net 5 and only wants to take Science.

Of course, the net 5 student has the right to put down NYJC (Science) if he or she wants, but it's risky. That doesn't mean that no net 5 students got into NYJC (Science).

That's how I interpreted phtthp's post.

Mr Pang Choon How, the new Nanyang JC Principal who came on board wef this year (2024),

hailed from ex (former) Hwa Chong . He was Hwa Chong Principal for past 6 years, from (2018 to 2023).

With the removal / elimination of the loop hole newly implemented, seems (looks) like ...

Nanyang Junior College has become a ...

2nd Hwa Chong #2.

:roll:

Not exactly removal/elimination. Other schools require students to enter by Science COPs if they were to take Hybrid subject combination.

A step in the right direction, nevertheless.

Let’s hope with the new principal, NYJC, can align their A level results disclosure and be more transparent like the other JCs.

Maybe he will implement the same policies that make NYJC so popular? :siam:

Wow! That's like tiok bey bioh. I can never remember when they start issuing the tickets. Was it in May?

Application started in end May. Collection of tickets started last week.

This year there seems to be so low demand that I will close an eye. You game for a ticket, qms?

Chief, I managed to get 4 tickets so shall give other members a chance this time.
