My sibling is currently Y1 in ACSI, and from the Y1 mass chat I've noticed that currently no one stays close to us that're looking for the same as us. Please pm if you offer the aforesaid services or are willing to share. Pm for more details too, thank you! Additional info:

Pick up timing: based on route but would prefer it to be between 5:45am and 6:20am

If your sibling is willing to leave home at 6.20am, he can make it to school in 37min, according to the above journey planner. Slightly longer if he has to walk further to get to CCK MRT. Still can make it to school on time.

Red line MRT to Jurong East, change to Green line, alight at Dover MRT (fewer competitors), board either 74 or 166 (2 choices, shorter wait). Will probably reach school on time even after counting the jam along Dover Road. If leave home at 5.45am even better. Get to school early and have breakfast there.

You may also take Bus 188 from CCK MRT and alight at the bus stop outside NUS High School (AYE) and then catch Bus 196 to ACSI or
the bus stop outside NUS Fac of Engineering (Clementi Road) and then walk over the pedestrian flyover to the opposite bus stop (outside Japanese Primary school) to catch Bus 33 to ACSI.

Hi everyone,


Apologies if this has been asked before, I had browsed the forum for this information but did not get a definite answer to my question.

Wondering if any parent is able to share their sons’ experience with the Edusave Scholarship for Independent Schools ESIS test (for Sec 3)? My son is to attend the test coming up in a couple of weeks time, but we are all not sure if any preparation is needed, or is it a IQ type paper that doesn’t need preparation, or will it cover topics in Y1-2? What is the format, type of questions covered, difficulty level, etc, and the chances of getting the ESIS (i.e. is it top 50% of the ESIS test takers, based on Y1-2 results, etc?).

Any insights into this will be greatly appreciated!

Hello All, I am new here and I would like to ask how do I prepare kids for humanities interview. Appreciate your advice. Feel free to connect if your child applied under Humanities too. Much thanks.

Have you tried to ask the Year Head too? He/she may be able to give you more concrete reply.

From the grapevine, I was told it is like HAST instead of school exam. Difficulty level is really subjective. If you ask those who were successfully awarded, the questions were easy. Whereas those who didn't get it said they were hard. Logical, isn't it? So I prefer to take others' feedback on the difficulty with a pinch of salt or it may affect child's mental readiness.

Whether to prepare or not - it depends if you can narrow down to resources needed for HAST for 15 year old.
School will tell you no need to prepare but some will still prepare.
