      soda:

      There're 40+ girls. They registered at the CLC then proceeded to different rooms for their respective tests. 18, 11 & 15 (Eng), three groups. Not a crowded event.


      Such a small crowd ! πŸ˜‰
      I guess 18 for math and 11 for science.
      Does this mean higher chance to get shortlisted?
      Also, is there a quota for each domain?
      Anybody in math and science? Can share what happened?
      Thank-you.

      small crowd does not mean easier to get in

      not to pour cold water here. reality is DSA admission is not driven by supply and demand. there is no minimum quota to be taken from each domain. last year i understand none got CO from HMT domain DSA. students must be able to demonstrate ability beyond their peers to have a chance of getting CO

        I heard sci domain, today selection test is out of the world.

        WHAT ? :yikes:
        Then how to pass ? :shock:

        out of the world is really the term to describe it

        that was how my DS described it last year for the math domain test too (for RI)

            The kids took this \"out of the world\" test head-on.
            They deserve a pat on their shoulder. :rahrah:

                    Don't give up until you hear from the school. Good luck!
