[quote=\"pinky88\"]Rec'd a 2nd email fm NJC on the Phase 2B interview...again something wrong with the date...this time lagi best....'pls confirm your attendance by 1 Jan 1970'...then when I log into NJC web, the letter says the interview is on 30 Nov 1999....Juz called them, they said the amended email is gg out now....aiyo, their system haunted by ghost or bugs??


The staff mentioned that the interview is on the same day as the day activity....also gd lah....settle it once & for all..

Hi pinky88,

I also received the same email from NJC. Was told to call back on Monday as person in charge has gone back.
Please do update should you receive the amended email. Thanks.

The first email (send this morning) I received for Day Activity is correct; no mistake :
--------
Congratulations for successfully clearing Phase 1 of the College's Direct School Admissions Exercise. You have been shortlisted to take part in Selection Phase 2 which consists of Day Activity and an interview.

The College would like to invite you to attend the Day Activity on Saturday, 20 August 2011.

Please click on this link to confirm your attendance for the Day Activity by Wednesday, 17 August 2011 using the login id and password provided below:

--------
The second email send 4 hours later for phase 2B interview has the same 1 January 1970 problem and the email does not state date of interview.

I have not click on the link yet.[/quote]Yup the 1st email no mistake but after u confirm ur attendance, there's a flw up email 'confirmation note of admission of day activity' whereby the date for the interview was stated as 19th May 2011.

:thankyou:[/quote]if the 1st choice is RI, then put it as first choice, even is a WL, can get one

Hi, has any one heard about mainstreamers, whether it be academic or sports, getting a CO or WL yet? Thanks

My friend’s daughter will be going to RV for interview. As it’s her first interview, she is feeling anxious. Can any experienced parents share how the interview is being conducted and the types of questions asked?

Hi Pinky88, at NYGH tea reception, Mdm Heng was saying that the sch received up to 1000 applications but only 210 places allocated to DSA. So again, she has urged the parents/dd to let her know early if they are not taking the offer so that the place can be given to WL.

If so why they bother with the GAT and interview for the rest ?

Try asking at the RV thread.
There are some active members there that are very knowlegable and very helpful.
