EH? Increase? I thought all the while the people inside there has all along been 9 pointers or below? But no harm trying. Best is if you can go for their Open House (if they have) and check with them what is their cut off last year.

No... the book shows 12. I didnt go to their open house cause I was scared going in to ITE.

The guide book shows the average of all poly. Not just SP's. SP generally has a lower cut off than the rest of the Poly cos they are the more established one. Trust me, that's from all my senior years of working for SP's open house when I was a student there.

Are you referring to the average COP for the Optometry course? Because at the moment SP is the only poly that has that course (NP is starting it this year so it has no COP yet). So i doubt that 12 is the average since there are no other Optometry courses at the moment I beleive?

Yea. It also depends on the intake vacancies.

But all the while Optometry has been a single pointers course in SP all along.
12 could be inclusive of NP and SP overall intake as a whole.

But I'm not sure of the COP thing, it's always not accurate, just an estimate, best is to visit all the Open House and check with them.

COP is just the gauge . it's the score of after the deduction of bonus point . no harm trying ((:
