Expected, received rejected letter from ri.

Hope ds will not lose his confident and keep working hard for the psle.

This was exactly how I felt when we received rejection letter from RI last year.....it was just days before PSLE oral... I was worrying that he would feel demoralized. But it was the opposite, he worked even harder..he is in RI now.

Don't worry too much, they can be stronger than us in this kind of situation.

I can't agree with U more !!! Thanks for the moral support :thankyou: :goodpost:

[quote=\"ngbrdad\"]Pleasantly surprised when DS called me and said he received a WL for RI.

Well at least it's better than rejection............

Thanks.
Do you have any inside information how many COs and WLs were given this year ?

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: where got insider info ? :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

WL is as good as confirmed. Just put it as first choice[/quote] :congrats: sound like insider information to me.

Just recvd rejection email from RGS..

Hi Cestmoi,
First of all, I wan u to know that I (many too) am very impressed with yr DD achievement. It's \"their\" lost not yr DD, I strongly believes that yr DD will excel further with NYGH! A fine lady in the making! :imcool:

Hi Maisu,
DD read ur post & wanted me to THANK YOU! for believing in her. :snuggles:
She said that she would continue to work hard & would not let this affect her. :rahrah: :thankyou:

Just recvd rejection email from RGS.. Scratching our heads why DD is rejected...DD is a mainstreamer, top gal in a neighbourhood sch, scoring above 90% since P1, has UNSW High distinctions & other awards, won at least two individual trophies for National Competiton in sports since P4. During the last interview with RGS, DD felt she had done her best & her classmate who was in the same interview as her, witnessed the interviewers being visibly impressed with DD & she congrats her for her superb eloquence & quick thinking. DD as usual in her humble self dismissed the praises.

Luckily, we hv set our eyes with NYGH ( of which a CO has already been recvd :rahrah: ) way before & there was just no deep sense of disappointment but full of WHYs huh? :?

Hi cestmoi, sorry to hear that. I'm sure with your dd's credentials, she will excel in any school she chooses to go.

Ya, sorry to hear and the good thing is that she had secured a CO. Yes I do agree that it's rather puzzling as there doesn't seem to be a norm to this year's DSA. Cousin's son achieved NSW High distinction in math, SMOPS Platinum, RIWMC Distinction, NMOS Gold and yet was rejected by RI too. :?[/quote] :thankyou: for ur understanding, gracy! DD will bounce back in no time! :siam:

If The sch Allow .... Gym + Shooting.
She Tried it During Open House, and It was Love at First Trial!

Possibly her hitting a Near Bull-eyes on her very first Shoot got something to Do with It ....

Go for the Shooting trial, then if she's selected can write in to ask permission to do 2 CCAs. Looks like your dd's got her days planned for RGS. :rahrah:

Actually the Coach ask her to join the Club if she gets in to RGS ....
Even took Down her Contact details during the open house ....
