My five-year-old girl and I will be having our medical examinations at SLEC Tuesday next week. I've hear different opinions as to what time is the best time to go. Some say really earlyin the morning, some say after lunch. My daughter is not a morning person who has not much appetite for breakfast, and I do not know how she will take to having to stand in line at dawn.

So...what is the best time to go to SLEC?

Hi Gracey! My only concern in going after lunch is that may take more than two days to finish the medical. And even when I came back after the lunch break, queues were still long and as I told you in another post I finished my first day at 7:30pm. I guess you have to bite the bullet on that one. But perhaps others who have actually recently started their medical after lunch may shed further light on this. :star:

Ooh! I I just remembered that I've noticed the cashier was closed after lunch which means most probably you can't start your medical after lunch. I could still be mistaken though. Anyway, bring lots of cookies and include some for you too! Wishing you the best in your medical. :)

I am checking into the hotel probably around 2pm Monday Nov 24th and I plan to go to SLEC after checking in just to have an idea where it is. I guess it won't be bad if I bring the passports and photos and the appt letter, just in case we can be accomodated? Oh...and is a copy of the appt letter ok?

Yes. A copy of the appointment letter will suffice. The staff at SLEC will just indicate that it is a copy.
