congrats!!


For past and present CO NUSH holders, may I know if anyone is NOT an MO winner (Silver and below). I got the feeling that NUSH only offers CO/WL to MO (SMOPS, NMOS and RIPMWC) winners (biased towards boys?) only.

Actually I know quite a few who got CO with no Gold/Platinum in MO.

I also know of 2 with Gold who were wait-listed , and one with Gold in SMOPS/NMOS who was rejected few years ago

My DS just got invited by NUSH to DSA Tea Session and Preview.

how to tell whether it is a CO or WL?

troubled:

Hi, anyone knows what's the chances of WL converting to CO and the PSLE score required? Thanks!

Hi phtthp,

Thanks! Hopefully WL can successfully convert....

My son is rejected. I know since the day he was interviewed because one of the teachers pretended to be sleepy, meaning they aren't interested in what he was presenting. Anyway it's a good experience for him.

Oh... What he was requested to do? Teacher so unkind? It is a good experience and good achievement to reach to interview stage.

No

Dont think they will tell.
Not even how many WLs have been given out

Thank you v much

On the brighter side, all WLs have been converted to COs historically.
There is no guarantee that it will be this year too but it is highly likely it be confirmed.

Even last year there was a supplementary intake after PSLE results, so that means not only were the WLs were confirmed, there were some vacancies after that.

Honestly you dont have much to worry, breathe easy, and focus on PSLE.

Hi Sun_2010,


Thanks for the advice! So the impression is that normally NUSH will offer a number of WLs & COs that slightly fall short of the required 170 students per cahoot ?? I can already visualise myself trying to count all the students who turn up for the DSA tea session. (!)

Really hope that all the WLs will converted to COs after PSLE results. I personally dun feel very ‘secured’ but also dun want to stress my kid too much before Orals/prelims this month…

For those DC on WL, it will be another long wait again.

How could our DC be able to concentrate on PSLE? :slapshead:

sigh, I can barely concentrate on my work now with all these question marks ??...but regardless of all status (rejected or WLs), let's all give our kids a hug for their efforts and cheer them on no matter what :rahrah:


* for us parents, let's give ourself a pat on the shoulder for trying our best for them too. :grphug:
