        Hi parents, I tried searching in this forum for Visual Arts DSA / AEP, not much. I am interested to let my son try for VS DSA Aesthetics. Saw their IG, pretty interesting to have an inner view: https://www.instagram.com/vsaep?igsh=NjJleXF6ejVneHlu -


        Anyone can shed more light on the school experience?

            Hi, just wondering what are the chances of being successful for Leadership DSA (CHIJ St Nicks), if my child is holding the position of Lead NE ambassador? She’s involved in many school wide activities, such as being emcee for various school events, being 1 of the 2 in the whole school to be selected for interview with Minister during school visits, and also responsible with sharing current affairs to the school.


            Academics wise, I don’t think she can score in the low single digit, she is somewhere between AL 9-12, and also not in the prefectorial board.

            Thank you! 🙏🏻

              I don't think anyone can advise on the odds & chances but I would suggest a few things:

              1 - going to CHIJ SN open house (good chance to find the teachers and ask the questions you have)
              2 - speaking with your child's teachers on her plans for DSA (most of them would be very supportive this one I am sure)
              3 - start compiling her activities and include anything and everything that would demonstrate her skills in the said category

              AL 9 to 12 are great scores! Good luck!

                A few years ago, DD's classmate got in by DSA leadership. Her classmate was a head prefect in her primary school. She was subsequently elected as president of SNGS student council in her Y3. Another girl coincidentally from the same primary school (also DSA student) was elected as VP of the student council. Both are very strong academically but beyond school results, the ability to articulate and present yourself well during the panel interview is very crucial. I think your girl stands a good chance. No harm trying.

                    Do you mind sharing if your DD and classmate from any of the top few primary schools?

                      DD was from SNGS Pri but her DSA classmates were from another girls' school. Not exactly the top few schools though (if you are referring to NY, RGPS, Rosyth, Tao Nan).

                        Just making wild guesses… the 2 DSA girls were also from another IJ school? 😂 if I’m correct, then I roughly know who they are! :evil:
