Hi there,

My boy is selected for the camp on 5/July.

Can anyone advise what kind of stuff will be tested, Maths and Science ?
And preparation is appropriate ?

Thanks

Hi, you can scroll down on this end of the page and go to the 'display period' search from 1 year ago. There are posts that other were talking about 2014 selection camp.

Hi there,


May I know when will the outcome of the selection camp be made known?

I read in the FAQ, the LOO will be given on 15 Aug 2015. Any idea if they will inform those successful or non successful applicants before the selection interview date ie 5 Aug? last year, the result was made known on 1St Aug 2014 from the previous posts that I have read.

Last year, camp was on 19 Jul, DSA results was given out on 1st Aug, which is about 2 weeks, so probably will be immediately after 5 Aug this year. DSA Preview is on 15 Aug where CO/WL will be given out.

It was a stressful period for me last year when my DS1 applied. DS2 will try to dsa too next year. I can’t imagine myself going through it again.


The waiting time and anxiety is horrible… 2 weeks feel like 2 months of waiting.

Based on last time, they would send out notice to those who are required to be interviewed first, before sending out notice to those who are either confirmed or unsuccessful.

Then, in a few years time when your DS is in year 6, there will be stress again!
