I know it hurts but then you can obviously openly deny here that most of the low ses parents and boomers in SG, in fact, also cannot speak English fluently. Do it lor. State the obvious.
Keep on crying. Anyway it is obvious by last evening after this crying post of yours that what kinda “international” schools they were talking about and what I was talking about. Still want to go on whining. Then go right ahead maybe it can be some kinda therapy you need.
According to popularity rankings Rulang is #8 under non GEP primary schools and you did not know of its popularity yet nobody reacted about it yet just because I had not heard of some neighborhood non GEP primary school in some ghetto town like Yishun ranked #19 under non GEP ranking (this means that it can be safely assumed that all people generally all know all the GEP schools plus maybe the top 10 of the non GEP schools so in total 20 sure well known popular primary schools) and got so many ppl with hurt feelings cried and whines about me not knowing some ranked #19 non GEP school in a ghetto town that most people would not go to often. Even got someone replied by saying it’s the top in THAT town.
Not all ACS students are rich. I’m sure you know this too
I am an ACS old boy, but both my parents were chinese-ed, so all the assumptions flying around are amusing to me.
Nobody except you would refer to that so called ranking. I saw it once and totally dismissed it as rubbish. It’s not even worthy for me to point out why it’s rubbish. If you have ever participated in the craze of P1 registration before, you would know Chongfu IS the top school in Yishun. And it has been the top school for many years, probably for at least 2 decades. Yes, you may collect all your materials from the internet but nothing beats listening to the voices on the ground and going through the experience yourself. Do you have any idea which forum all Sg parents rush to for their info during P1 registration? I suggest you go read up that forum’s threads for the different schools during P1 registration instead of giving all your high and mighty theories and opinion here.According to popularity rankings Rulang is #8 under non GEP primary schools and you did not know of its popularity yet nobody reacted about it yet just because I had not heard of some neighborhood non GEP primary school in some ghetto town like Yishun ranked #19 under non GEP ranking (this means that it can be safely assumed that all people generally all know all the GEP schools plus maybe the top 10 of the non GEP schools so in total 20 sure well known popular primary schools) and got so many ppl with hurt feelings cried and whines about me not knowing some ranked #19 non GEP school in a ghetto town that most people would not go to often.

Do you think being the top school of Yishun is really a very strong credible trump card? Are you trolling, or serious?
I was not the one who talked about Rulang. Someone else did and you replied to him, not me.
You can use other rankings you can find online, they would all give you the same results. That’s because that ranking uses the level of over subscription to calculate popularity. If you have other rankings you can find that places Chong Fu the top school of Yishun in a higher place, feel free to show it. I will wait for you.
Who is that?
Being a top school in any neighbourhood means one thing: their PSLE result is the best among the schools in the neighbourhood. I do know the stats so Chongfu is very impressive for a neighbourhood school. It doesn’t have any GEP class and most kids from Chongfu, if selected for GEP, are likely to join a GEP school. So unlike schools like Nanyang, Nanhua and the likes, Chongfu’s cohorts are neighbourhood kids who shoot to the moon and stars during psle by their own effort.
P1 registration is not your BTO registration. There are different reasons why some schools are not more popular than others even tho they are supposed to be more popular. You only have one chance and parents won’t risk messing up that chance by joining Phase 2C if they think their chance is low. I have a friend who could enrol her kid in the school she was teaching in, and it’s a top school, but instead, she enrolled her kid in her alma mater because it’s a safe choice at Phase 2A. She might get balloted out if she were to enrol her child in her school as it’s Phase 2B. Then she would have to go to Phase 2C where the fight is even fiercer. I did something similar - enrolled in 2A because I didn’t want to risk the chance at 2C. Many people do the same thing.
What’s unforgiving?
In competitive exams like these the margin of error is very very small. Exams can't be used to differentiate and rank amongst 1000s of test takers. A small mistake can pull down the grades even though the kid is a bright child.
its always been a test to see who are more careful and composed. Not testing who are smarter
Definitely willHehe, Useless PSLE scores can initiate such a boring debate. As though the employers would be interested to see your PSLE grades before they employ u. Lol
Will your head.
Will your head.
And I’m still here airing balls right now with no fantastic PSLE scores or from any excellent pri school.
Don’t feel like debating this topic. Impractical and boring.
.
If the debate was on which property overprice, which property can buy I still find it more practical and relevant. Lol
