My children are attending this private tutor tuition at Marine parade. They have been scoring very good grades, high band 1 and last time my elder kid's results are not that good. Great improvements and i think it also depends on how much our kids are willing to learn. She provides group tuition and i got referred to her by my friends who send their kids there too. heard that she has more than 10 years experience

Hi, can pm the details of this tutor? Address, contact...

Thank you

oic , so i think 247 also risky to appeal

Can try lahh, but St Nicks alr quite gd .

yes, decided on 2nd choice and shall move on from here , thot is was a close one - 1 mark from cop cedar , anyway thanks[/quote]hi, my girl also at st nic, class T. yours?? we also chose st nic & cedar in our choice, but hubby prefer sap school, so st nic our 1st choice & cedar 2nd.

if st nic cop is 246, anyone posted there with this score???

Went to both cedar and st nic's open house.

Cedar gave me a better impression as st nic was at the temporary site.
My marks could qualify for both.
But dint expect cedar's marks to be lower

No St Nic COP is lower. Just called them and their COP is 246, lower than Cedar 248.

Could someone kindly amend the list pls. Thank you.

i called school ytd and tdy, the staff said 246, but moe insist is 249. i'm also puzzled.

[quote=\"tryunited\"]advice from anyone?

Since your DD's score is close to St Nics COP last year, there is a risk. But no harm putting it as first choice, since posting is by merit. But I think you have to exercise your choice for 3rd and 4th school carefully also. Cedar COP is 246 last year, not sure if it will increase this year.

I'm making a gut-feeling guess that Cedar's COP will be higher than St Nick this year. If you can't make it to 1st choice, likely can't make it to 2nd choice either.

Bear in mind St Nick has affiliation to pri sch. So if St Nick pri cohort has done well this year and most of them are staying, fewer places are available for non-affiliate.

yes agree with lizawa your 3rd and 4th choice very impt.[/quote]thank you very much for your advise. submitted already, keep my finger cross and hope she can get in, prepared to appeal.

advice from anyone?

tryunited:

my dd scored 247 + 1 (HCL), my school selection is:
1. CHIJ St Nic
2. Cedar
3. TKGS

pls advise. risky to select St Nic as first choice???

hi,

can someone please advise.
my dd has 247+1(HCL) applying:
1. CHIJ St Nic
2. Cedar
3. TKGS

do you think the selection is risky since my first and second choice are borderline??(vs COP 247 and 246 respectively)

thank you
