Dear parents,

Anyone applied for DSA through Violin? What is the expectation from RI? My DS is in P5 this year and planning to try DSA through Violin. He is in ABRSM Grade 4. Any advise or suggestions?

Hi RI parents,


I’m posting here to say thanks for all the supportive parents like iRabbit as well as the useful info in this thread. DS managed to get a spot for the interview phase. Hopefully he clears the interview stage although I’ve reminded him how fierce the competition will be. More importantly, he’s very motivated to continue to work hard after reading some of the posts here.

If I'm not wrong , I think you will stand a much higher chance with dip

Are there any parents with sons in the MEP or Band CCA who can share their experiences on the programme/CCA? Are the teachers nurturing and creative? What does your son enjoy/dislike about it? Thank you.

The requirement for dsa music was ABRSM grade 7 distinction and above a few years ago. For the past few yrs, Ri only accepted 1 music dsa students and it may not be violinist. It's really competitive!

If RI had only accepted 1 music DSA student in the past few years, it could have been somebody that DS knows. That boy has diploma in voice.
