Hi, I am a Year One student tis yr n I am interested in transfering to NUS High School in year 3 as I didnt make it last year during the psle phrase(i am on waiting list). As I already know, selection yest for year 3 admission will be taken in year 2(for me is next yr). I really want to get in this time so can any one provide me with the details of the test?

Not very sure abt the test for the y3 intake but suggest you to take a look at the subjects and syllabus covered in yr 1 and 2 in nush.

So if she is not good at Chinese, will it be safer to just take Normal Chinese so as not to pull down her total marks. Unlike Primary school, HCL is calculated separately. Any advice ?

The con is you still need to take A Level MT if you opt for CL instead of HCL. If you don't mind, it should be ok to take CL.

Thanks dagong99. Will seriously consider. Do you know if we try HCL in the 1st year, if 2nd year want to change to normal chinese, it will be alright ?

Oh, I'm not too sure about this as DS1 & I are quite determined to 'finish off' MT at Year 4 so that DS1 can concentrate on his triple Science as core subjects. DS1 doesn't want MT to affect his Year 5 & 6 results. He's rather weak in languages, now relying on his Math & Science subjects to 'pull up' his CAP.

Ok. Thanks for your help…Will seriously think of it.

Any students or parents can share their year one results so we can know how the academic standard the NUSH year one students have?

Hi
You're able to drop HMT with HOD's consent as far as i know.
The other way is to do so badly they kick you out of it

What is the textbook standard?

What age?
And what are the topics they learn.

DSA Phase 2 - PSLE results are out. Our DD managed to get through. Such a relief for her. I hope others have succeeded, too.
