No post today, possibly Monday.

Four years ago, DS1 has received the offer letter on a Saturday, didn’t get an actual result.

wangxiaosara, good to know that you already have one child at MGS. Would you mind sharing your son's experience at MGS?
My son has received an offer with a bursary but he scored well in AGSB as well for out of catchment. If he gets offer from AGSB too it would be very difficult to decide which one to choose and why.
I would appreciate your opinion.

congratulations to your ds. We were in the exactly position 4 years ago. I am sure your ds will thrive in either schools.

We chose AGSB at the end. It was a tough decision though as both are amazing schools.
