      What are the chances for those who attended the interview but not called for half day program at RGS? Any idea?

      Thanks

      No clue at all??

      Hi Ansa and Honeywell, can i know your dd from MS or GEP?
      My dd is from MS and at least 4 of her classmates(after interview) are also selected for HDP, just wondering are there any GEP going for HDP. Or GEP can skip HDP??

      Hi scotia , my dd is from MS and applied for maths domain.

        Dear parents,


        Has anyone heard from VS Concert Band or NJC Band for interview post- auditon?

        Half of me wants to move on, the other half wants to hang on to whatever hope in DSA that's left. 😓

        Thanks in advance!

          [quote=\"myteapot\"]I agree this will be good for parents, but I think the schools will need the domain tests to do one round of selection, otherwise it will be too much for them to interview all. Somehow, I really appreciate how HCI conducted their selection, at least for the domain my DS applied for. Two rounds of interview in one morning, and it's waiting time all the way till end Aug for the results.


          Hi Myteapot, Do you mean HCi won't have paper test as 2nd round? Did you call and confirm with school?

          Hi smiling, no I did not call n confirm w school. But I interprete as such as there was no mention of 2nd round in their DSA website. Everything was spelt out so clearly even the date of interview notification, which was adhered to. Not sure though, if there's any paper test for the academic domain.[/quote]No second round interview for HCI. 2 interviews (1 general 1 domain) on the same day, domain test was included in domain interview, only a few questions. In total 2 hours including break.

              Hi Scotia, DD is GEP, but she have GEP classmates who applied for the same domain (EL) going for this HDP too.[/quote]None of DS's classmates is called for hdp after interview, but one schoolmate is, she is el domain. All are gep.

                  You’re most welcome, similing. For HCI DSA this year, it seems there is a shift away from written test to more interview-style. For my DS’s DSA category, there is no written test at all.
