      hi jtoh,


      besides demonstrate exceptional ability over subjects like Maths - how about other subjects like Science, English or Chinese ?

      are these 3 other subjects also considered, or the DSA panel of decision makers only interested in Maths ? Thanks for info.
      Students can apply to any of the above academic domains for DSA. The specific requirements are stated on each school's website.

        Because for RI DSA academic domain is under specific subjects, hence the exceptional ability beyond peers is applicable for each subject domain

        So it is a fallacy to assume that other than math will be easier to get in. It is misguided if any parent were to think so

          What Mdm jtoh said is correct

          Last year my DS also same situation, among the top in smops platinum ranking etc, got international awards in others cca, though he got HCI CO, he later used his psle to appeal in to RI, we got phone call from RI right after the psle result was submitted to RI

          So please tell you son to cheong psle and aim for RI

          Sure got hope, don't forget the other half of RI intake is via psle
          :thankyou: Verykiasu2010 I will show yr post to my ds
          I m sure that this can motivate him to cheong all the
          Way to his minimum πŸ™‚

              Rumors only

                Phone call with good news for my boy first thing this morning. Nothing so exciting, not premier school, but comforting news nevertheless. I thought not to let him know so he won't be too \"proud\" of himself, but got to go for meeting tomorrow. ;(

                :congrats: to ur DS. :rahrah:
                May I ask which school?

                CHS. It's actually the school he wants to go .[/quote]Double congratulations on getting a CO from his dream school. :rahrah: :rahrah:

                        It's no secret. We've known it since vk2010 told the forum a long time ago.
