Besides trying DSA for the top schools, anyone else tried for the neighbourhood schools before can share your experience please. Thanks.

Not every school has DSA and don't think that many applied for DSA to neighbourhood schools.
Once you apply and get it, it will be a big hassle if you change your mind and want to apply to better schools thru S1 if PSLE results permit.

Actually there are alot of neighbourhood schools that have DSA. But have to go to each school's website listed on MOE's list and look individually.

Hi is there any way I can find sample questions for NUSH selection test ?

And is there any info on the camp and the English essay that the students need to write in the camp ?

Hi ktc 100,

Oh your ds is already in acsi year 2. May I ask why did he choose acsi? Why did he choose the ib instead of the conventional A level? Does he enjoy the school and the programme? What would his advice be to a p6 boy who is considering acsi among other schools like ri and nus high? Thanks

He's an ACSian to begin with, so when he got the DSA, he didn't even think twice! IB, especially in ACSI which is tops in the world, makes sense, especially because he thrives on language, presentations, people-skills etc. He LOVES it so far. Only complaint - I hardly get to see him! Between activities, competitions, camps and project meetings, and of course, the new friends he makes in the course of all these things, he barely comes home! So far, no tuition or anything, he's also keeping his head above the water in IB as far as academics are concerned, so I think he has really grown all-round as a person. So sorry, can't compare with RI, NUSH as I have no experience or first-hand knowledge. Hope this helps...

Actually DS is very upset because he missed the 80 % by less than 0.5%. Anyway i told him life is such and he just has to go through it. Anyway all under GE will get GAT. Let's hope he will do alright.
