Looks like not many good news from the appealer today

Feel Sad :frustrated: So is it good to DSA ???? :stupid: If not would have already got in ideal school.

Actually I also feel that the whole process will be much simpler and less stressful if there was no such thing as DSA. In terms of workload and stress, I think DSA actually creates more of them . Firstly, parents, students and schools all have to put in time for DSA. It costs both money and a lot of time to apply for multiple schools. Students and parents both get stressed out. Then, when DSA results are released, there is also stress when you don't get offer from the school you want.
Finally, when results are out and knowing that you meet COP of your dream school, there is the stress of appealing. Schools are also stressed with more appeals than before.
I think the most important about DSA is make sure you only apply to schools that you will really consider going so that there will be no regrets.

DSA need not be stressful or time-consuming if you just apply for the school you want to get into. Okay, if you're kiasu, 2 schools. No more than 3. And all these schools should be schools you would want to study at. That way, if any of them offer you direct admission, you take it and that's it. No more stressing over transfers.
