DD got co from Cedar but rejected by NYGH. DD says she may drop the offer from cedar and pursuit the PSLE route to NYGH. I am against the idea as in the end may end up 一无所有. Any opinions from all ksp.?

You need to decide. We faced a similar situation last year. She got CO from another very good school B but my girl's heart was set on going to school A. Finally we didnt take up the CO and waited for PSLE since I felt she had performed well (just felt but not sure). She got into school A.

Also know of a friend's DS who gave up CO to another gd sch and got into his dream school based on PSLE result. His PSLE score turned out to be the same as the COP though. They considered prelim results and how their DS thought he did in PSLE. It's a very difficult decision to make and my heart goes out to you. All the best to you and your DD.

Congrats to everyone who were successful in their DSA application!!


To me, making the choice between RGS and NYGH is more difficult than the DSA process itself.

Now which one to choose?

:congrats: to Neko and musette too! Yes, another one with this Happy Problem Let your DD decide. Let her go to school one more time to see and feel, pray for right choice! :dancing:

My DD is unsuccessful in NYGH DSA.
Now we need to working hard to get in through PSLE.
Very curious how good can be successed in DSA application?

SO sorry New Julie, yes, there is still PSLE. a handful top students from my DD's school didn't apply for DSA at all, as they are doing their best for PSLE. I think DSA is looking for special talents on certain areas. Don't be discourage by DSA, instead, chiong for PSLE. Wish your DD the very best for her PSLE and get into her dream school. :snuggles:

Good headache you have there.
One is fish and chips, the other is xiao long bao.
One is Angelina Jolie, the other is Gong Li.
Depends on your DD and what culture you want your DD to be immersed.
It's subjective, you go read the two school threads plus another thread RGS vs NYGH ...all the best to a wise decision. :boogie:

hahaha, snow Crystal, what an illustration. there is another thread comparing both schools. Oh yes, found it:

Not a difficult choice for dd coz she's accepted by rgs and unsuccessful with nygh.

The first case I ever heard of. But both are good schools. Congrats!

Snow Crystal,
I like this : One is Angelina Jolie, the other is Gong Li.
So for RI & HCI, it'll be :
One is Tom Cruise, the other is Jet Li. [/quote]Oh my, the list will go on....
