on the new yellow extended Circle line mrt - which is the nearest mrt station to NUS High ? if there is, will be great.


from Geylang / Aljunied, your child can transit at Paya Lebar mrt, hop onto Circle line mrt.

it can be Buona Vista / One North / Kent Ridge

Thanks all for the reply My younger daughter is giving me headache...I'm afraid that her PSLE score would be to low to get in. Heard from one of my friends that her daughter get into SST her PSLE score was almost the same as my daughter but i was told that SST and NUSH is different as SST take \"O\" level, NUSH is IP. So the standard would be higher after all. Btw, is there any good tuition to intro?

Maybe u can borrow the textbooks from current NUSH S2/S3 students （as they use one combined textbook for their year 1 and year 2）, and ask their guides to buy what kind of assessment books for your younger daughter to practice.

Hi, my daughter who scored 220-230 for PSLE would like to try to get into NUSH next year(2012) which she will be sec2 and apply for admission in year3. She has great interest in Math and Science is there any possiblities to get in?

think the process will be much the same as those applying for DSA at P6. Gotta get ready all your achievements, past yr results etc highlighting your strength in the subjects.

meanwhile, it's all good for you to find out what the nush yr1&2 have covered and run thru their notes. from there, u can roughly judge if u have much to catch up, or u can flow with the existing pupils.

all the best!

hi Restless_Mum & those parents keen to seek transfer for child into NUS High AFTER Sec 1,


i rang up NUS High.

a) to address your concern - can your daughter still have any chance get in NUS High?

here is the reply:-

\"We do not take in Year 2 admission. Admission to Year 3 is based on the selection tests and interview outcome for shortlisted candidates only. The PSLE score is secondary, since past.\"


b) what Secondary 1 Science subjects are available ?
here is official reply:-

\"start from Year 1 - it is compulsory for students to take all 3 sciences in depth (pure Chemistry, pure Biology, pure Physics).

We do Not offer any Combined Science nor General Science, offered by mainstream Secondary schools.\"


c) any further inquiries, may call up school to ask.

谢谢phtthp给予的上述这些资讯。


我周末去了NUSH的一位学生家取经，NUSH的S1的物理，化学，生物是各自分开的，不是合并在一起的，她们孩子是今年的物理奥林匹克和化学奥林匹克双料冠军，当年PSLE282分，从他们家拿到了物理的textbooks和workbooks，这样中学1/2年级的物理整套的教科书，参考书，以及习题本很齐全了，一套textbook是中1和中2合并用的，they use one combined textbook for their year 1 and year 2，这话就是在这样的情况下出来的。可惜的是生物，化学，数学的textbooks和workbooks都刚送人了！论坛里面有没有S2/S3的孩子，可以把化学和生物的textbooks和workbooks借给我们吗？

NUSH在S1时候，数学，物理，化学，生物这四课，就学完Secondary Express的S1/S2内容，然后在S2就学完O level的内容，是很超前学习的。restless妈妈的小女儿如果跟着学校的进度，自己在课外可能需要赶进度提前学习了。我这里还保存着2010年和2011年在S2阶段DSA的两位学生家长的一点经验和教训，明年你小女如果去DSA，我发给你参考。
