Hello! I'm currently in sec2, and i am condsidering to try for NUSH year3 intake. But there are some things I'm not sure about, please enlighten me! firstly, I'm wondering about the school hours. What time does school in NUSH usually end? And Im not sure if I fit the criteria. What kinds of awards are good for the application? For example, math Olympiad, if you get, for example, a bronze, is it considered \"bad\" for NUSH standard? Help will be appreciated. Thank you!

I chose this sec school because it’s near my house, and also cuz of affiliation yup. Its not exactly "branded" like the top schools and it focuses on the arts.
Let’s say… I’m in an accelerated class for math and science, even in those classes I’m usually the top.
I don’t know what the numbers stand for, sorry but I’ve taken part in AMC and got a distinction, top 8%. And also and honorable mention(after bronze) for SMO(i don’t have training, unfortunately).
Ive liked math and science for many years and want to go to NUSH mainly cuz of their syllabus and "emphasis" on these subjects.

Err... Houddington, NUSH doesn't focus on the arts. It focuses on math and science. Not sure what affliation you're talking about bec there's no primary school affiliated to NUSH. Are you referring to doing NUS modules?

Is it once you register to take the test, you are confirmed sitting for it? Do I need to wait for any confirmation?

[gravityguy]

yes. no confirmation is needed for the test but u may need to check email or the nush dsa account thingy so that u can choose your test center. be quick, centers (schools) near you may fill up KINDA QUICKLY.
