Thks cwc. I saw my Ds name in the list. The strange thing Maths Hub called me to inform that my DS is selected for 2nd round. But, DS did not attend Maths Hub before. Wonder how they've gotten my number??? As such, I tried KS forum to see if I can get info to confirm. Indeed, I manage to do so. This forum is superb!!!!!! :lovesite:

Yes, Maths Hub has a way of contacting parents of students who made it through to NMOS Special Round. I think they produce some Math magazine which a lot of kids subscribe to so they have a database.

That's an invasion of privacy IMO.
Whether a child gets into the 2nd round, he/she will know it eventually through the school. There is no need for Math Hub to call the parents (if their kids are not MH's students) to \"inform\" them. :roll:

I was contacted by Math Oasis not Math Hub a couple of years ago when my dd got into NMOS Special Round. I think Math Oasis publishes some magazine that primary school kids can subscribe to. I was so blur then. Didn't even know that there was Math Olympiad training classes. My dd never attended any MO classes nor practised any papers. Just went and sat for the test and still got through to Special Round.

Looks like not only Maths Hub, MathsOasis too. Got a call from them as well. But since DS school is gonna conduct some classes for them, guess I'll stick to Sch lah.[/quote]Wah, your ds's school is so good. My ds's school has not informed ds that he got in the 2nd round yet.

I scan thru the special round past years questions. They're so difficult!!!

Your ds' school hasn't informed him that he got into Special Round yet? That's odd. Better call the school to check. If they don't run regular Math Olym classes I don't think they will run special classes just for the special round.
