2010 DSA(Direct School Admission)

obsession:
Shucks too late! DS had to submit it to his form teacher by today as they will all be off for a 3-day camp. I didn't duplicate a copy and I can't recall the DSA pin no.!
Best to submit online. Less human error.jtoh:
[quote=\"obsession\"]After submitting the DSA School Preference Form through one's Primary school, would there be any verification slip given?
Am concerned now as a verification slip could be printed out if you submit your preference online. Even more concerned if the school loses the form or if the clerk enters the info wrongly :shock:[/quote]Call the school office to confirm.

It seems that the DSA criteria based largely on P6 SA1 results. In my opion, the GAT and interview must have certain weightage (especially for those P6 SA1 below 80%), if not, what for they set up the test and interview?
As for T-score, for DSA case, as long as T-score above 200 and ranked high enough in waiting list, it is good enough.
Do note that someone mentioned DSA to NUSH also need Maths and Science A* in PSLE. Can anyone confirm this?
PS. Sun_2010 and nymom confirmed that DSA to NUSH only need T-score above 200. -

Just to highlight, the RGS DSA process is a little different from RI's. There's no waitlist for RGS. That being said, the P6 SA1 results are important for RGS DSA. As is the interview.

Not true. Some schools also set their own minimum score - eg. 230 for students who are offered DSA. So there are students who cannot make good their DSA offer. This happens in my boys' school.
