Your Winning Strategy
1. By Priority Group
SC<1 (Singapore Citizens <1km):
- ✅ 2B: Near-guaranteed admission (0.05:1 in 2024!).
- ⚠️ 2C: Competitive but prioritized (SC<1 ballots first).
SC1-2/SC>2 & PR Applicants:
- ❌ All phases: No recorded success since 2022.
2. Pro Tips
- 2B is your golden ticket—apply here if eligible (PV helps).
- Relocate within 1km for 2C advantage (SC<1 fills all spots).
- Avoid 2C if >1km (historically zero vacancies).
2026 Prediction
- 2B: Will remain a safe bet for SC<1.
- 2C: Demand may rise further (prepare backups).
