Transfer from Non-IP school to IP school
Posted: Fri Feb 06, 2015 9:52 pm
Hi parents:) Ninjazz34 here!
I have intentions on transferring to a IP school this year for Sec 3 next year.I decided that I would apply to a few schools instead of just one so that I can try my luck.However,one of the IP schools I'm deciding to apply for doesn't have an entrance exam.Since its one of the top schools,for a neighbourhood school student,chances are deemed to be 0% as their criteria will be really strict and what's more,the whole curriculum will be different and such.
So I would like to clear the following doubts to reconsider my decision:
1.Is studying in an IP school hard as what people make it out to be?
2.What are the usual hours your child gets back from school?(excludes days that they have CCA)Do they have enough time to complete homework and projects?
3.Are they stressed out or depressed of the competitiveness in the school(if any)?
I hope that someone can help and answer these questions.Thank you!
