One boy in my class has NUS High, RI and HCI 2nd round on 24th July. It is the only good news today so far.

how come did not submit application earlier so that there is a chance of getting an earlier DSA test, esp for HCI & RI ?[/quote]Look, he's is the blur-blur sort of idiot, teacher scold for forgetting this and that. This is exactly what I would expect of him.

hi Ykiasu,
Just inform NUSH that your son is leaving early. From what I know, NUSH is very flexible.

Thanks justbehappy! Great suggestion :idea:[/quote]Did NUSH indicate that their camp is from 7am - 2.30pm ?

On their website, it is stated that the camp is 7 am - 5.30 pm

MdmKS:

Is HCI DSA phase 1 having greater chance than those in phase 2? In past years, any confirm offer to Phase 2 pupils? What is the chance of those got waitlist under phase 2? Can someone pls share?

If my memory serves me correctly, during this year's Open House, the spokesperon explained that there is no difference between Phase 1 and Phase 2 and that this is done to ease their manpower constraint in administering the DSA exercise.

mine was the blur kind of chinese teacher who did not understand english but managed to get 10 min out of her not sure for others.
