Is that a feedback from your child regardng the interview? Is it a panel interview? wonder what's the chances of being offered a CO if you 're already been selected to Phase 2.

That's from last year. My ds is already in year 1 in njc. It was panel interview last year. I was just waiting at the carpark and saw little kids coming out with their parents today, and guess must be for interview. Last year's interviews were conducted over several days too.

I'm not sure the chances? Among my friends and my ds' friends, some were totally rejected, but got in in the end with psle score, and some CO, and some waitlist (but got confirmed on psle results day - they put njc as 1st choice).

Hi Phankao,
From my understanding is that 200 students were selected from 690 from the Phase 1. There is 150 places which means there's a 70% chance of getting a CO at Phase 2. So are the ones rejected, from Phase 1 or Phase 2?[/quote][/quote][/quote][/quote]

I did mention they went for the interview, right? So that means they all went for phase 2. Somehow all my friends kids got into phase 2, but some were not offered in the end.

A friend’s boy applied for this year DSA exercise, so far her boy had sat for a test (on 1 day), gone on a day camp (on another day) and going for the interview (this Sat). Some classmates of her boy who also went for the day camp did not get select for the interview.

Not in boarding yet. That's next term. He likes the programme. Says it is probalby much different from the sec sch affiliated to his pri sch - which is probably true. Lots of projects and group work. It suits his personality. The cohort is small, so he gets to interact not only with his own level but those in year 3, 4, 5, 6 and learns from the seniors. He's been given opportunities like the MOs, the science fairs. He's in the music programme and given opportunities to perform too.

Anyway, he's enjoying it lots, lah.

I thought once you are selected for Phase 2, you will be doing the Day activity and the interview as well. That's stated on their DSA page.

I am surprised that some didn't get an interview.
