That's amazing ! She deserves a pat on the shoulder ![/quote]
She clocked 80 hours training per month and averaging 85 for all her subjects. I can't be asking for more.canadataboo:
why so stressed ?
sports DSA are meant for top few at national level for their respective sports
if you are outside the group....I would suggest you manage expectation and don't put so much hope - that is more detrimental. Just go study hard for the PSLE. grade A is a wide range below A*.
Guess just have to move on and seek alternative route.
That's why I understand how she is feeling now. -
Love iPad:
Dd attend interview at Nygh on Monday. What is the next step? When will we know the result?
Just wait and no need to do anything.
One of my DD friend asked nygh principal and she said school will release the result after PSLE oral test (17 Aug). -

I think the value of SMOPS has dropped. Too many out there. Throw a stone might hit a few students with SMPOS awards :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:[/quote]I tot only abt 70+ out there ? Maybe next time DSA schools expect the kids to know how to fly too :rotflmao:
Yes, rather surprising he got rejected with Platinum in SMOPS. Maybe he didn't do that well for the Science portions. Then again, there have been cases of students with Platinum in SMOPS getting rejected by other top schools too. Maybe there needs to be a Diamond award in SMOPS if Platinum is no longer exclusive enough. :evil:jtoh:

GEP & Platinum for SMOPS get rejected ? :yikes: Really scare meBut I do know they will only give entry to Einstein Club to those who perform well in NMOS/SPSO.....

I thot this actually reflect well on NUSH. It's not just about academics, they look at other aspects. On NUSH website, they did mention the qualities they look for during the selection camp - passion, problem-solving, teamwork & leadership etc.

No need to know how to fly. Just need to be able to build an aircraft propelled purely by wind and able to carry the applicant from NUSH to NUS campus. :evil:

Maybe next time no need buy cars from dealers, get the students to build one ! Save $$$ :rotflmao:

core CCA in sports also do about 80 hours of training per month, normal kids, not sports DSA kids -

He is good in Science too.
What about his science? Mayhe he/she did not do well for round 2 where the pupils are solely tested on Science.8228:
My ds's friend (GEP) was awarded platinum for SMOPS but was rejected by NUSH. Don't know what he got for NMOS or RIPMWC though.
Anyone heard of any pupil who has consistently excel in both maths and science but failed to get a CO from NUS high? -
Worriedpapa:
Hi, Worriedpapa, when did you receive the email informing you for interview? My DD is also DSA in sport, still waiting for RGS.DD is mainstream and she had her RGS interview today. However she is Under DSA Sports. Was a panel interview which was more of a chit chat.
Now the anxious wait.....
Gd luck all
Thanks -

Yes. It's depend on sport also. For competative swimmer, very normal for 8 sessions / week.
But 80 hr / month is no joke for kid, should give a :hugs: kid.
