Jazzie:

Can you apply to few school via DSA concurrently so that your chances of accepting into one of them is higher?
Eg. Apply to RGS, NYGH, NUSS concurrently. Is it allow?

Yes, it is allowed. However, I think it puts too much of a burden on your student to prepare and appear for multiple schools' DSA, while also preparing for the PSLE. (Not to mention the financial cost of so many schools' application fees. )

Jazzie:

if you apply via DSA to NUSS and got selected and you accepted it. Then upon receiving your PSLE result and realize you qualify for RGS. Can you still make the switch?

If your child accept the dsa offer from nus high, you cannot make any switch over to rgs secondary later on, after Psle results are released in November. You have to honor your commitment to nus high - because you have already accepted her dsa offer. Rgs secondary will also not take in your child, knowing that she has already accepted a dsa offer from another secondary school - be it nus high or any other secondary school.

Thanks.

Yes, you can apply to 3 concurrently. But you need to prepare her psychologically in advance that - if any one reject her after interview, she should not get upset, nor let it affect her mood in preparing the actual Psle. Tell her is just an experience to go through in life.

In the event all 3 happen to offer your daughter dsa offer, then you need to decide. You Can only accept 1, out of the 3. But once you accept, you have to honor the offer, cannot switch over to another secondary school, after the Psle results are released in November.

In the event your girl is not successful via dsa in one if the schools she likes very much - never mind. Encourage her to work harder in Psle. If her actual psle score is good, ie. can meet above the cop (cut off point), she can still enter via merit Psle results.
