Hwa Chong's DSA phase 1 shortlist is out since Friday evening

Does anyone know if the DSA interview phase for RI has actually started?
- according to their official schedule, it is supposed to start from 28th Jun.

Besides sport trial participants, I suppose all the rest who fall under GE, SMOPS(at least silver) all get shortlisted? And if it is so, what is the rational behind the shortlisting process?

Maybe shortlist is only applicable for those mainstreamers who have no awards/didn't DSA via sports? Since they didn't specify the minimum % for P5 & P6 results for those who applied DSA under 'Other P6' category, they may just shortlist those with v good results.

the school say there is no guarantee even for GEPers and those camp finalists .... anything can happen right up to before the confirmed offer is made by the school

That's right. I was surpised to see the top GE boys at RI on Friday. I only found out then that they were attending the RI camp there. These are probably boys that average GE results above 90%.

Are you talking about the science camp held in RI on 24-25 June? I thought that was just a science enrichment camp during school holidays? If I'm not wrong, you need to pay for it and the camp was for both boys and girls.

Tomorrow morning DS has to sit for the NUS DSA selection test. I hope the paper won’t be too difficult.

HI Herbie


same here....in fact, i am getting nervous now...though i keep telling myself to relax and don't worry too much about it, i still can't help not thinkng about it....

[verykiasu2010]

that means those going for the DSA tests at NUSHS cannot go for the HCI one ?
