        She also took exam on 15-July. Received the email today.
        Congrats! Care to share the subject profile and accolades? I would think SCGS MTs are not a huge domain, so she must be on a very short list of exam and interview. Good luck! :rahrah:

          Rejected after the submission of the personal statement, didn’t get shortlisted for the trial
          We also received the same, “not been shortlisted to the next phase of your application for STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Aesthetics and Mathematics)”. This is after submission of personal statement.

          As a future reference for parents, here’s my son’s personal statement that didn’t get him through: https://drive.google.com/file/d/13k95HK7sUs4YWo87lEUiJCLRQtTswrbf/view?usp=drivesdk

            Your son's achievements are very impressive. Thanks for sharing. If you don't mind my saying, I think he is much better suited to NUSH than NJC (or RI) anyway. So I wish you success for your NUSH application.

                Oh no. Your son's credentials were exceptional and it's hard to believe that he didn't get shortlisted. So sorry to hear that but I'm certain that with his capabilities, he's got an amazing future ahead. Wishing him all the best with his other applications and the PSLE overall!

                    Why would any schools reject this profile? Is their loss for sure.
                    Am sure he will strive in any schools that he goes to.

                      Hi ainunnajib,

                      Thank you very much, for your kind sharing.

                      Indeed, your son's achievements in (Information Technology and Mathematics) are truly .... outstanding and brillant, for such a young 12 year old Primary 6 school boy.

                      Behind your son,
                      we can also see that both your spouse and you, have put in tremendous great effort, to support him & groom up your son so excellently well, in these areas. Truly, as parents,
                      you deserve a big pat on your shoulder and a big round of applause from us, because all of us can see that a lot, a lot of hard work & effort had been put in all these past years, from kindergarten right up to primary school years, not just by your son alone, but also by you (parent) & your spouse, as well.

                      Perhaps,
                      you may want to ring up National Junior College directly, ask to speak to the key staff in charge of short-listing STEAM domain candidates .

                      Don't ask NJC why your son wasn't short-listed for STEAM domain, because NJC may not entertain this type of enquiry. But, you can ask them : is there anything not suitable (if any), found inside the Personal Statement content, submitted ?

                      Clear these clarification asap, so that going forward, if your son were to submit another Personal Statement next time one day in future, requested by another Institution of Higher Learning a few years later, you know how to correct & have peace of mind. Only NJC can provide the answer you are searching (seeking) for, deep within you.

                      If after NJC has answered you and you yourself are convinced at the end of the day that it is their loss not to short-list your son, then just accept it graciously and move on.

                        Not that I disagree with phtthp's recommendation but I think your child might be better off pursuing admission to RI and NUSH. If NJC cannot see the patently obvious potential in your child, then it's their loss.
