As long as he met the minimum requirement for express course i.e PSLE T-score 200, so it won't be a problem. Qualifying thru DSA means he is OK for the pace and the curriculum, but he's really need to work very hard if fallen behind.Yeah, the results is out and my son got in!! We are going to the preview this Saturday. My son attended Camp 1 and Camp 2 but didn't get called up for interview.
All the best to all for PSLE, regardless whether your sons / daughters got in or not...
I just hope my son can now be less stressed over PSLE. He has been having insomnia this year (PSLE year for him).
Does anyone know if he can still get kicked out of this DSA if he doesn't meet a certain criteria for PSLE? -

Dear walterp, Thank-Q for that information! Yeah, think there is no problem for him to score above T-score of 200!. Phew! 1 less stress is always a good thing...

According to my knowledge, it is very difficult to get the DSA of RI for a non-GEP via the academic domain, about 10 or so? -

Saw from the other thread under DSA there are a few girls who get CO from RGS via academic domain. Guess should be non-gep. Not sure whether academic domain boys stands a chance to get RI CO

Your statement about NUSH - GEPer is absolutely correct. My DD was in GEP in 2010. Some of her classmates did'nt not make it to round 2 and some did'nt get CO after the round 2 camp. It's far easier for GEPer to make it to RI/HCI and RGS/NYGH than NUSH. That's a true fact.
And chances are for those GEPers who have the NUSH COs, they are also multiple COs of RI/RGS/NYGH and out of 10, 7 will probably choose the prestige of RI/RGS and hence for those on NUSH WLs (not many) it is almost 100% guranteed the COs on PSLE result day provided they choose NUSH as no 1 choice on DSA Preference Option.
Why I said that ? The NUSH Cohort size every year is always less than 140 (out of the intended 170)
That's also a true fact.

OIC, your boy applied RI, HCI, and NUSH.He is a GEP, so he almost can get these three COs. Nush CO is the most difficult one to be get. My boy is non-GEP. Though he took part in the 2nd round of RI. But others said only 2~3 COs will be given from the 60 pupils applied in maths domain. For Non-GEP, RI is the most difficult one.
:congrats: Ur GEP boy!
