GLORYmum:

RGS email is out.

A consoling one.

:gloomy:

GLORYmum, :imsorry: stay positive...we still have tea party to look forward to, keep stretching our necks...it's a good exercise though

Consoling one = WL?
Look at it positively, my DD said the DSA interviews are like trial run for PSLE Oral and I am sure your DD enjoyed the process.

Many things could have happened during the selection. During one of the interviews, DD said there was this girl who talked non-stop, dominated the whole interview session and all out to impress. When the interview was over, that girl was \"scolded\" by the other 4 girls (exclude my DD lah) for talking to much and interrrupted other girls when they were talking. Worse of all, based on sitting position, that girl was always first called to answer and by the time it gets to the 4th, 5th, 6th girls, everything needed to be said have been said by 1st, 2nd, 3rd child.

Come, come, I give you my shoulder to lean on...I may need yours when party invitation is out :oops:

Sorry to hear that. Did your dd try out for other schools? I hope she gets good news on the other ones or does well in her PSLE to get into her desired school. Is your dd mainstream or GEP?

Not sure if you can hold the news from her as her classmates might be discussing this in school. Maybe it's good to let her know, at the same time, give her some encouragement words.

Hi all,

It wasn't easy at first for me to accept the unsuccessful email at the start of the day.

Fortunately dd was ok and took it quite well.

After all this is not the end of the world, right?

Thanks folks for your outpouring kind and comforting words especially to you who had shared your past experience on overcoming the disappointment.

Can I ask something???


Is it that once a school offers u and u accepted under DSA, u cannot change anymore subsequently?

What if later on (touch wood), never do so well in psle and fail to meet the CO marks?

Thanks

GLORYmum, a big hug from me....
I understand the disappointment, my DS got an NO from NUSH 2 weeks ago, I cried myself a river... I have so much regret :stupid: ....regretted that I did not sign him for MO courses thou he begged for it since since P4; regretted that I restrict his excessiveness of spending hours daily on Maths and Science and neglect his other language subjects, the list goes on....
It's my DS that had to console me, :snuggles: DS and me had learned a great deal in this DSA episode, and we are just glad that we had the opportunity to gain the exposure....
Now I am glad and proud to say this, though he failed his NUSH DSA, but DS fought a good fight (NUSH); with his non-exposure to Maths Olympiad and Science Olympiad, he managed to clear the first round and entered the Selection Camp. We will see how he fair in his PSLE, or Sec 2; we may still have a chance. :xedfingers:

Wish your DD ALL THE BEST!
