PSLE score 27: which secondary schools?
AL 27 is in PG1; all six choices are made in this Posting Group.
Posting Group 1
PG1 covers AL 25–30. Counts use 2025 and earlier non-affiliated cut-offs across all of Singapore, with no distance limit.
Reach: the latest cut-off is 1–2 points better than your score. Match: you meet the latest cut-off, but an earlier year was stricter or you are exactly at it. Safe: at least 1 point better than every recorded cut-off, but no more than 4 points, or the school had vacancies (28).
