      A dance school posted on their IG on 17 Aug 2023 (almost 3 weeks back) congratulating one of their students for her successful DSA application to DHS. She's not my DD. So not sure if those successful have already received call. You can check the post here https://www.instagram.com/reel/CwB5EiwJlkQ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

            I understand your concern as I had mine during my kid's time. If it's tuition you're worried about, isn't it better that there won't be any available for NUSH curriculum? The only way for students to clarify their doubts is to approach subject teachers. This being the case, parents get to save money, and we know that tuition fees do add up for the family.

            Rather than be concern about the availability of tuition resources, I feel that a more pertinent question is gauging how passionate your kid is in Math and the Sciences. From my observation, kids' interests do change as they grow up from tweens to teenagers, and exposure to non-STEM domains may appeal to some of them later on in life.

            You have a happy problem. Good luck!
            Thank you. What you highlighted is also my concern. I fear now might be too early at 12 to dive into something so focus ( which can also means narrow). Now he has deep interest in Math but I am unsure if it's accelerated learning and it gets too complex, will his passion persist or his interest might fade?

            For now, he is very positive abt NUSH but we won't know till the path is taken.
            May I know for your child, did he/she choose NUSH in the end?

            Thank you again!

                Mine is already serving NS and so his was way back in 2016. That's quite some time back. 😄

                In the end, he chose another IP sch which is also strong in Math and the Sciences. As a parent, I agreed with his choice as I preferred him to become more of an all-rounder than specialist at such a tender age. Looking back, it was the correct decision as his passion for MO slowly gave way to other interests as he progressed through sec sch and JC. By the time he reached JC, his MO interest has totally vanished and he didn't even bother to compete in SMO.

                It's strange but when I look at my niece and nephew, they are obviously linguistics students but ended up being mildly interested in STEM while for my son, it's the exact opposite. Mabbe too much exposure from a particular domain can turn people off (he was heavily involved in both internal and external MO prg in sec sch) unless one is truly passionate about it in the first place.
