        Hi yolksg,


        My dd got CO.

        I’m not sure how the HOD knew, I’m assuming that NYGH sent the list of DSA applicants and results to her school.

          :hugs:

          I look at it as \"divine intervention\" - My dd has always been a \"fish n chips\"(sorry snow crystal, I am stealing your line) cum grilled salmon girl rather than a xiao long bao girl. Almost everyone whom I know says that she might eventually land in rgs. It was only after the gep fiesta that she became interested in nanyang. Her reason? - that's a place where she can improve her command of chinese language.

          Throughout the whole dsa process, she has told me on several occasions that she would choose nanyang if they accepted her. Actually, I have been quitely worried that she might not fit into nanyang. This is because even she herself has said that her personality and profile are better fits for rgs than nanyang. So with this outcome, at least I can lay fear to rest.

          Agree with you that the outcome is a little perplexing. Based on what she told me about the interview, I thought she was quite ok. Perhaps from the interview, they could see the initial \"rgs\" etched on her forehead :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

          Congratulations to all KSPs and DDs who got CO or WL from NYGH!
          My dd got rejected by NYGH but luckily has a CO from RGS. Like cluelessmama, I too, think my dd had 'rgs' all over her. Probably didn't help that she told NYGH that her siblings are at Raffles :roll: πŸ˜‚

          It seems like NYGH is very careful in the selection this year. Will it affect the chances of WL converting to CO since they're striking off girls showing the \"rgs\" factors?

            Or the HOD reads this forum. :evil:

              You have a point there. It appears that NYGH is offering COs to students which it thinks are less likely to select other schools over them --> fewer students giving up NYGH CO ---> less likely for conversion of WL to CO.

                Unprecedentedly, three such cases this year so far.... Yes agree with divine leading!

                Was just told of another case. ε‘žηΏε€±ι©¬οΌŒη„‰ηŸ₯非福.[/quote]Wonder if the rejected cases were from RGPS ? NYGH might think RGPS gals won't go there πŸ˜‰ Still remember there was big group interview and small group interview... so are all these cases from the small gp interview ?

                  Was there a difference in the calibre of the students who attended the big group vs small group interviews?

                    I don't think so. DD was from the small group interview.

                      Kind of remember now ... it seems small group interview are for those cases which they picked for \"closer talk\" to see if they really want to join NYGH. Big group was something like tea session .... or vice versa.(correct me if wrong)

                        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:

                        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. πŸ˜„

                        If it's goes by choosing the Stars, I prefer Jet Li. :rotflmao:[/quote]How about this :
                        If you have a super rich man and a super smart man going after you, who will you choose?
