Chinese oral needs a lot of time, for example must go through every term such as walking stick, wrinkled face all these in Chinese. My son is like a banana boy who since young call himself an English boy, so when it comes to Chinese oral and compo is a lot of work. Chinese main is easier, he can study the Chinese text and handbook himself. Anyway what new info will they give in tea reception? It is just a persuasive session, nothing new right? Let me know if I am wrong. Thanks

Same here. Once there was a picture of a nurse and he said 服务员。His Chinese teacher shook his head and sighed . Sorry to bring this up here but anyone knows how to prepare for Social Studies prelim paper ? Have not seen any notes just stacks of articles.

According to my DS, two of his group mates didn’t turn up for the NUSH camp. He said the name sounds foreign. So maybe foreign applicant who decided not to continue their applications.

Just felt it was such a waste. Not sure whether they paid up for the camp or not.

Just cusious what do the boys do during the camp? tough? Like RI/RGS test, which is out of the world questions?

Any interview after the camp? or this is the last round?

Observed that the selection camp for NUSHS is very international, quite a number of Koreans, PRC (alot), Indian, Nepalese (?). Felt so foreign when I was there.
