LMC or CKY?

wallpaper...

can't agree more...my favorite out of all, if i were a kid again, i also want my parents to send me there

wallpaper...

but then i was discussing this with my husband last night, if he's really good, he can always try to switch in or apply again when he is older for secondary, or mid - of primary, or even next year. Don't have to give up or lose hope yet even if we dont' get in this year. It's always easier and less competitive to enter for P.2 or above...at least u are not competiting with a few thousand of kids, there might be just around 20 ppl applying next year or for the years thereafter, isn't it?

what i've heard is that if you plan to enter any famous schools by "cutting in", you child must process outstanding academic or other (music, sports, etc) results.  in other words, yes, opportunities are always there, but i'm not quite sure whether the chance would be higher, coz tho u you are not competing with a couple thousands of other 5-6 yr old kids, you will be competing with some very smart (or superboys) for a few available seats.

阿仔in 完十間, 包括名校, 最like 都係 CKY, 我地都覺得好合佢, 尤其識的小朋友都讀得好, 可惜學費係最貴.. 同埋比較遠, 如果課外活動冇校車就會好煩.. 所以真係有機會收都要再三思.. 12年的投資.

CKY is like a dream school to us, but pretty expensive, yet quite competitive to get in.

missuet: i was referring to LMC in that case.
As for CKY, needless to say, the language ability of their students is way beyond average...!! I have encountered a few that seems very smart, intelligent and carry themselves very well, probably knows even more than I do.

Hi wallpaper, I think I'll most likely go to LMC for 1) it's indeed easier (less than 1,000 applications vs 2,000 for cky, according to the info provided by the net fd here).
2) less finiancial burden compared to cky

forgoing the dream school opp is a painful decision.

how abt you?  get any response from smc yet?

thanks for asking i really couldn't decide which to go...and there was no mail yet today, so I called up smc just now, and asked about the interview result... they said they will call me back, i hope they will reply me today...then i will see if i will go to cky or lmc....feeling really desperate, heart pounding.... lucky my blood pressure is normally low...!!!

hey relax.... just a game!  even if we flunk all the attempts, it doesn't mean our kids won't have schooling opportunities.

i've learnt to calm myself down so much these days.  in fact, earlier this week i got the notice of flunking smc.  when i opened the envelop, i felt so disappointed, yet a few minutes later, i went " the hell with it! tmr will be a better day!"
