I wasn't in the last row.[/quote]Anyway, he didn't say anything special. Some more, never answer to the point. So in the end, never get to have the answer to the questions asked!

You and your child will know best which schools he/she is best suited for and hence may want to try DSA for. We can't advise you as we don't know your child's abilities/interests. If you could list the schools on your radar and your child's talents, maybe parents could give you some idea on how difficult it might be.

His dream school is HCI and ok with NUS High. But now his friends want to go RI, so he's wondering.............

Actually I would like to do HCI and NUS High only, as I heard RI is very hard for non-GEP students. He likes to read science related books and not bad in math.

Hi superann,

I have no experience in HCI and RI. If your son is keen on NUSH he should definitely give it a shot as most of their intake is by DSA. And non-GEP students who are outstanding in Math and Science stand a good chance of getting in too.

Hi Funx,

Not all schools have waiting lists so in that sense the kids who are offered COs and have no intention of taking it up are depriving other kids of a CO.

Is that so? I've not heard of schools that don't have WL. RI & HCI & NJC all have WL.

RGS, NYGH do not have waitlists.
