Im sure its not just watten that has more breeding grounds.. the weather has not been favourable and rains unexpectedly....The schools are nearby each other and nayang has ongoing construction . I still hope they will check and fog the schools nearby more often ( NJC included )since they are next to nanyang. Previously when the condo, Hillcrest was under construction, the students at rgps used to complain of mosquitos but at that time ades mosquito were not that popular yet.

Hi, I am a Secondary 1 student who went to National Junior College by DSA.

For your studies, NJC is not only A's. Most of the time they require A stars, and a lot of people cannot go in because they did not do well for the test.
In case you still want to register, You can go and online and register and the test topic will be about english comprehension and mathematical reasoning.
It is very hard, so good luck! :dancing:

How to improve the grade for LA at Sec3?


We spoke to the teacher who told us ah boy has all the points during class dicussions but is unable to link these points coherently, smoothly in his essay.

Other than this observation, she is unable to advise how to improve on this shortcoming.

hi, can you share the info on the format of the selection test, MCQ or short answer questions? Thanks.

Hi, NJC's DSA application closes 01 July 2016 5pm (according to the school's website). As the deadline draws near, I would like to share experience.


Phase 1
I can't comment on the specifics as dc has (unfortunately) clean forgotten everything. However, if I were to conjecture, 2015's was mostly MCQs coupled with short answer questions.

Phase 2
The impression we had of the 2015 interview was that the school wanted to be assured that the DSA CO student would eventually accept the offer. This year 2016, the section (literatim):

Addtional Information
For information only, NOT part of selection criteria.
I have applied / intend to apply to other schools under DSA. List of school:

is added to the online application form. This seemed to be absent in 2015's. The school had obtained this information from the student through the interview process. At this juncture, it is a personal recommendation that the student DOES NOT lie. Rest assured that even if you are shortlisted by other IP schools, & you candidly report these facts to the interview panel, NJC will still offer you a CO if you fit the school's requirements - this is personal experience.

Hope this helps.
