DSA 2024

[mc_007]

Can I check to DSA Leadership, will being a CCA Exco, class chairperson be enough to qualify? Not a prefect like other. What do they look for for leadership?

It depends on the school and the profile of the students who apply for Leadership in that school.

Some examples:-

Dunman High

RI
https://riadmissions.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/51000176705-how-will-you-shortlist-students-leadership-character-domain-

River Valley High
https://www.rivervalleyhigh.moe.edu.sg/information/faqs/


Schools will usually look at various factors other than the Leadership portfolio, e.g., academic, performance during interviews, personal statement (if required).

If it is the child's dream school, go for it.

All the best.

just visit the Secondary website that your P6 son or daughter is interested to DSA to, because

they requirements of \"DSA Leadership\", are all stated there, defined there clearly.

Hi all


Wonder what type of profile will stand a better chance for RGS or NYGS Maths DSA? Thanks in advance!

Hi I’m looking at the MOE DSA website to search for which school can my daughter apply for concert band.


https://www.moe.gov.sg/secondary/dsa/eligibility


Now I’m confused. Schools like NJC and TJC didn’t come out when I ticked for IP. But it came out as concert band without IP. I thought these schools only offer IP? The only school that came out when I ticked IP is SCGS. Please enlighten me, first time applying for DSA.

Njc website shows concert band for both IP DSA and JC DSA on their website. Another way to check is using MOE school finder and filter by choice of DSA

Both NJC and TJC are Co-Ed, when you search the moe website, the selection limited to only Concert Band -Girls (IP) or Concert Band - Boys (IP), but not for \"Concert Band - Boys & Girls (IP)\"

Thank you for the replies! I don’t see any option of Concert band - Boys & Girls (IP)…I wonder why…

[00skyblue00]

Coz TJC and NJC are not dual track schools, single track IP, so no need to specify. If you choose concert band boys IP, you will see schools listed offering dual track, hence applicants have to specify IP or O or no preference in their applications.

Hi parents,

Any of your child succeeded in using Science to enter
1) Temasek JC
2) Dunman High
3) NUS High

How were your kids scores like in P5 SA2?

Do they consider the Non-weighted assessment in first half of P6 Sem 1 results too?

For NUSHigh, the results from the selection tests are key . Then, they look at the following:
\"The shortlisted Year 1 applicants and all Year 3 applicants are to submit the following scanned documents in Jpeg or PDF format before attending the selection camp / interview.

1. P4 to P6 report books (Year 1) / P6 to Sec 2 report books (Year 3)
2. Achievements certificates (optional)
3. Awards & scholarships certificates (optional)
4. Any other activities outside schools that showed the applicants’ passion and talent in Math and/or Science (optional)

https://www.nushigh.edu.sg/admissions/year-1-and-3-admissions/year-1-admissions/
More on what they are looking for or to assess if there is a fit for your child
Do note the process for 2024 will include the selection test first - these talks were for Covid year but still useful reference about what their considerations on fit
