[quote=\"scm292\"]Choice of school for DS or DD should NOT be based how the school select students during DSA. While I agree that the schools mentioned are all \"good\" in the public's view, I do not think that DSA is a fair basis to determine which is better/best.

True. Just to share.. I know 2 boys who got DSA offer from NUSH. They're not high achievers. Never gotten prizes in Science or Maths. Only got a bronze in NUSH's math olympiad competition. One got in last year and one this year. We're quite surprised for their DSA results but happy for them.

wah, macham like that these 2 boys dilute the academic quality of the school leh....lidat people will think all NUSH students are same as these two boys...if you see them on the street, how to tell.....? not fair right ? :evil: :evil:[/quote]DS had a choice between NUSH and DHS via DSA. Now in DHS which offered him first (long story). Lidat he has diluted DHS academic quality?

Oh no; siao liao lah ....... Like that hor, my DS will be the third boy following the trend liao. Chin jia lat leh; Cos he has CO via DSA and will join NUSH next year. I hope he will not dilute the academic qualities of NUSH as he only managed a Bronze in his P5 NUSH Math Olympiad; He did not do well in the other 2 Math Olympiad he took part in P5/P6, also got Bronze award for both.

DHS - smooth sailing.
NUSH - had to go through his most feared 'hurdle' - interview.

Sure diluted DHS academic quality as he did not even smell a bronze.

Yes.

Hi nightrace,


Yes, I just don't subscribe to there being one 'best' school. What I regard as the best school for my dd may not be the best school for another girl.

seems like stressful to be in schools like Dunman, RI, NUSH … because like expected to win minimum bronze cert in competition or better, just to keep up with the keen competition, because fellow classmates are all so good.
