Secondary Schools in Hougang: Which Schools for AL 10 to 22
Hougang has 8 secondary schools. Below are all of them with three years of cut-off points, then the schools within reach at AL 10, 14, 18, 20 and 22. Schools in other areas within 3 km are included, because many families choose across area lines (7 nearby schools, marked "nearby").
Categories assume a Singapore Citizen: PRs and international students come after citizens when a score equals the cut-off, see PR and international students.

How to read the tables
- Reach: 1–2 points worse than the latest cut-off; possible, but don't count on it;
- Match: meets the latest cut-off, but not every past year;
- Safe: at least 1 point better than the cut-off in every year with data.
A cut-off is the score of the last student admitted; a smaller number is harder to get into.
