      ex-teacher:
      Hi, this is my first time posting but I have been reading kiasu for a long time. Thank you everyone for sharing so I thought I should give back. My dd was interviewed at RI yesterday. While I was waiting, I noticed that there was either a vice principal or prinicipal in every room, so I don't know if the students were grouped differently. My dd's questions were:

      a) What world problem would you like to solve?
      b) tell us about your project/portfolio
      c) What difficulties you encountered as a leader?
      d) Would you choose RI or HCI?
      e) What is one personal strength?

      I hope this helps. Good luck :lovesite:
      :welcome: ex-teacher and Thanks for your sharing!

        Congrats Orangejuice.


        You are right, many will tend to be eliminated in second round.Heard from dd's classmates many who went for RGS 9th July selection test, but never get any news at all.All of them are taking it as no news is no more hope.

        Regards

        Congrats OrangeJuice....nice to hear news of mainstreamers being selected...hope ur DD will pass her selection test....all the best:)[/quote]

        Thank you thank you...so touched by all the well-wishers here :lovesite:

        heard many girls will be 'eliminated\" after half day selection test, I told DD just do her best and even if she didnt get selected after the whole DSA process it is still OK, just have to be focused and work hard for PSLE.[/quote]

          To jitoh,


          Your calculations were right! It all started with where, thru wat??? After her school open house on secondary schools, she set her mind on a particular school which we strongly disagreed but after consideration, we supported her as that was her dream school, than she was supposed to pick another school just in case... N one after the other she wanted to try, so we went ahead. but I believe too that it might b stressful for some kids, but my DD enjoys it, to her it is just another tests, not a study subject, so do her best.

          But I must admit, I am the one who is more kang cheong of the outcome after I was introduced to the kiasu forum and this is a GREAT FORUM!!!

          Hahaaaa ... I think my p3 girl might be like your girl in 3 yrs time especially knowing tt her brother has undergone the DSA interview process... But I will
          restrict her to 2 or 3....as her mummy no stamina... Dapula tahan πŸ˜‚

          Hi vlim,

          Hopefully by her time, things didn't change, as I realized that some schools shares the same GAT , but they might still require student to take again, so if get thru one, will get thru the rest.
