      Coincidentally, both president scholars from SOTA were from dance. Just curious, is dance the biggest faculty in SOTA And has the most number of students? How about facilities and teaching resources wise, as compared to other art forms?

          A curious Google search revealed that both of them were Valedictorians of their respective year (2017, 2019), and both had been award winners in ICAS and AMC. That does say something about their academic prowess (hence President scholar material) regardless of their dedication to their art form...?

            Are these two girls (Cheri and Allison), in local or overseas university, now ?

                    biggest domain in SOTA is visual arts, about 70-80 of the 200 per intake. not sure about dance, but probably 30-40 at most?

                      Just wondering why the two President scholars did not choose to pursue their passion in Dancing in some renowned university after spending 6 years in SOTA but instead chose to take up courses in International Relations etc.


                      DH says maybe it’s fine to take up Dance as a hobby but it cannot be treated like a profession as the local market is small, so have to be “practical” about it 😂

                        hi,

                        my dd is p5 this year and is considering applying to 2 domains in SOTA next year for DSA. Does anyone here know if applying to two domains will reduce her chances for each? thank you.
