        Yes, it does sound quite that way. It's good to be confident, but humility is a virtue too.

              Waitlist is as good as waiting for your PSLE results. That's why when someone said mainstreamers got \"equal\" chance for DSA in top schools as Geppers, I do not think it is not really true. A lot of \"top' mainstreamers get into top school via their PSLE score, not DSA as those places are taken up mainly by Geppers.


              Granted, there is always this argument of Geppers having a more rigorous P4-P6 with their enhanced and project-based curriculum. However, to determine if a child is gifted with just 1 P3 streaming exams and accord them the \"privilege\" is not exactly a fair system. I have seen so many truly gifted child being \"by-pass\" by this system, and the \"hothouse\" ones get the privilege. :shock:
              sorry eng ga lish not very good, what u mean by 'hothouse' ? πŸ˜‰

                        Hi,


                        During the open house last Sat (22/5), the principle, Mrs Lim mentioned that over the last few years, RI has taken about 150 GEPPERS through DSA out of the 225 places. I have spoken to the person in charge of DSA through Sport talent, he mentioned that RI will take in 45 +/- sport talent pupils. Out of these 45 sport pupils, RI will distribute them based on PSLE score. Should the pupils score able to meet the COP of RI, the pupils will be joining the rest of the mainstream pupils. The rest of the sport talent will be put under one class.

                        From the above situation, the balance of about 30 places will be given to mainstream pupils.
