Hi all,


My DS had applied for NUSH via Phase 2.

May I know:
1. When will we receive the Registered Mail on whether he’s shortlisted for interview?
2. When will the interview be? We were only told that it will be next week.

Thanks!

Those turning 13 years old, heard highest score was 4.8/5.

Anything above 3.5 is considered very good. My friend’s child has no tuition can score 4.5/5. She was one of the top 3 students from a neighbourhood school. Her dd scored Chinese, Math and Science A*, English A in PSLE 2014. Her score could have qualify her for RGS or NYGH but she chose NUSH instead. NUSH is really for those whose PSLE get A* for Sci and Math and all the best students are in this school. Very competitive. Another friend’s friend’s son didn’t do well, got depression.

Hi sembgal,

Heard from the mentor that anything below 3.5 is consider no good. So 3.5 cannot be very good. The average in ds class is 4.1

Usually for Phase 2 interview (based on T-score entry) :
NUS High tend to select those students for interview, who scored well A* in both Maths & Science subjects, in PSLE T-score

Thanks for sharing.

Even though is year 1 at NUSH, I heard from the child's mum, who mentioned anything above 3.5 is considered very good.

Of course below 3.5 is no good. But every class average could be different.
