      Hi ChipnDale,


      Really appreciate your answers to my many queries. Grateful 🙂

      I saw the Open house at St Nicks was in Dec last year. Do you mean there is a separate one for DSA in May?

      One more question:- My HB was asking what if after IP track (A levels), child decide to go Polytechnic but dun hv O levels?

        Dec Open House meant for all students in general.
        It has DSA Open House for students vying admission through DSA around May.
        If decided to switch to Poly, shd approach Poly admission office to enquire the criteria, and if there's any more vacancy left after admitting O level students.

            The polytechnics conduct individual Direct Admission Exercise for students with 'A' level certificates. For example, the application period at TP was 1 Mar 13 to 5 Mar 13 whereas it was 2 Mar 13 to 6 Mar 13 at SP. The range of courses available differs from poly to poly and some of the courses may be completed in 2 years instead of 3. In fact, they also cater to students who have completed year 4 of the IP programme and those who have completed the IB programme.

            You may refer to the website of the 'a guide to Polytechnic Education' for more details.

                      Though my son’s badminton coach has connection with one of the top schs. Don’t think i want to dsa thru sports. I mean he has other activities not whole life dedicated to badminton. He will join badminton CCA in the future sec sch, but won’t commit when there are competitions.

                      I would try dsa thru academic instead. What to prepare for academic?
