I thought the number of CO for NJC is about 70-80? So about 50% chance if managed to be selected for interview.Rivervalekid:
looks like this year many parents have DSAed their kids into NJC, will be a tough fight. As for any one who has news from MGS can pls highlight here pls. Thks!
Don't think this year will be as tough as 2014. That year 700 over applicants sat for test, shortlisted about 100 over, should be less than 150, for interview and CO 50 students. -
Has Cedar released results across all domains? So far only heard of Math & Science from this group.

Sports too. -
Anybody know how many applicants apply for NYGH, & roughly how many get selected for interview?
During their open house, the slides did show their cohort students for 2018 will be 390, and the school will admit up to 50% for the DSA students, so will be 195 students from DSA domain. Any parents who know or have prior experiences can share what are the chances of getting CO if selected for interview? -
Anyone knows if HCI gives WL for Sports this year?

Most geppers DSA for RI or RGS. Outcome not out. How to say rejection higher? Not fair to say geppers free rider. They are taught less of the PSLE stuff unlike mainstream and do more projects? Most still score above 250. Most awards won by geppers. Please be sensitive in your comments.
Some rejections already out from R schools. Obviously I based on anecdotal evidence that it appears that more GEP received rejection this year as compared to the past. There were some talks that GEP students appear to be getting a \"free ride\" if you look at past years' DSA discussions on KSP. There has been cases of some GEP becoming complacent, and it is only human nature that some will slack off once convinced that they are \"gifted\" and hence no need to work hard. I would suggest that one should try to understand human nature and find ways to deal with it, instead of shutting down uncomfortable views. -

According to my knowledge, geppers do not need to go through the first round test for some top schools, eg. NYGH for the past years DSA. Correct me if I'm wrong...Yngmng:

I totally agree. Why said its free ride for them. They take the same test, go to the same interview like other MS kids. The school choose the candidates not the other way round. They are just 12yr old kids like any of the MS kids. They work equally hard as well. Please spare a thought for them when you pass bias comments. Thanks.
