Hi,

I'm new to the forum and very appreciate the contribution from yall. I applied pgde during Aug/Sep window, went to interview on 12 Oct. I just checked the email n found an update from MOE:

This is an update on your application.


You may wish to note that we are still processing your teaching application, and would provide an update on your application status once it is available.

has anyone received similar Email also? is this the message that im not shortlisted for now, and should I still have hope?

Waiting is like killing :((( I'm planning to change job, really want to teach, but heard the processing time is sooo long...

I have received this email before back when I applied in Feb window this year. They rejected me 1-2 weeks after sending this email.

are you fresh or mid career?


need to wait 6 months between applications or can just apply consecutive batch?

I am a fresh grad. Yes, the 6 months rule seems to be true. I am only shortlisted for interview on my first and third application.

I went on 22 October too and I think we will only know the results 4-5 weeks after the interview as they have mentioned. It’s a waiting game and I guess we just have to be patient and have faith haha

Hello periwinklebreeze. Thanks for replying. What subject did you applied? Mid career switch or fresh graduate?

Hi periwinklebreeze, i was selected for the same subj. When&how was your intv?

Hi Valvani! My interview was on the 22nd of Oct and I think it went pretty well (however the interviewers were really friendly so I think it’s hard to tell whether it’s good or not) 😅 What about you?

Hey guys, i just completed my interview last week.
It was really good(compared to my first interview). the interviewers were so nice. During my 5 min presentation, they didn't even interrupt me at all.
The interview was rather short and sweet , they just asked 4 questions.
Why do you want to teach?
what struggles do think you will expect to face when you teach?
Why a career switch from Engineering to teaching?
question on my ethics essay.

The whole interview lasted about 10 mins (excluding teaching presentation), compared to my previous interview of 30 mins(which failed), but i left the room with the feeling i got the job in the bag.

The HR did say that the next step would be the EPT.
I assume that would mean that if im shortlisted , i would be selected for the EPT.

For my last interview i wasnt asked to go for the EPT. My GP grade for A levels was 'B' and O levels was 'A2' for those who are wondering.

Anyway , its gonna be a long wait for me. Good luck all!
