        "summary": "Parents of prospective new students have been visiting SMA Negeri 1 in Cirebon City to lodge complaints about the new student admissions system. Issues raised included missing names in the system, server disruptions, and sudden changes to student scoring. The high number of applicants, reaching 1,030 for only 504 places, has also intensified competition for places at the city's most sought-after state school.",
        "content": "<p>A number of parents were seen visiting SMA Negeri 1 in Cirebon City.\nSeveral complaints were lodged. At the New Student Admission System\n(SPMB) service post at SMAN 1 Cirebon City today, Tuesday (9\/6), it was\nseen crowded with parents of prospective new students who were visibly\ncarrying supporting documents for their children\u2019s registration at the\nschool. \u201cI came in person because my child\u2019s name is not in the system.\nI wanted to ask directly here,\u201d said a mother who declined to be named.\nThere were also parents who complained about the server often\nexperiencing disruptions and changes to student scores which became\nhigher than before.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Chair of the Cirebon City School Principals\u2019 Working\nConsultation (MKKS), Maman Dermawan, explained that SMAN 1 is indeed the\nstate school with the highest number of applicants compared to other\nstate schools in Cirebon City. The high number of registrants means\nprospective students must compete fiercely to attend SMAN 1 Cirebon\nCity. The current number of registrants has reached around 1,030\nstudents. \u201cMeanwhile, the quota is only 504 students,\u201d said Maman.\nFurthermore, students who are not accepted will be channelled to their\nsecond and third choices.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the addition to student scoring, Anna, one of the SMAN 1\nCirebon City SPMB committee members, disclosed it was because the\nAcademic Ability Test (TKA) scores that had not yet entered the database\nwere finally integrated. \u201cIn the initial stage, the system only\ndisplayed report card grades without combining them with the TKA\nscores,\u201d said Anna. After all the TKA scores were entered, the scores\nautomatically increased and changed the scoring of the provisional PPDB\nstandings. In fact, until now, Anna continued, there are still some TKA\nscores that have not been read by the system and to anticipate this, the\nschool has carried out data collection by directly contacting the\naffected students.<\/p>",
