Hi parents, generally how many rounds of selection must the kid undergo for dsa academic? After the written and performance task, will there be round 2 for interview on another day? Thanks.

Each secondary school has its own process. Usually interview on separate day, some schools on same day and some schools do not need interviews at all.

All the best.

PSC wants to portray itself as being diversified, looking not just at grades. Same for Medicine. So they like to highlight a few non-JC recipients. But looking at this year's PSC recipients, the majority are still from the same schools. :lol:

The “chit chat” is part of the interview stage? Or prior?

You are right about diversity. They have reduced the proportion from more than 60% to less than 50% for PSC scholarships awarded to students from RI/HCI.

Any idea generally how many of the DHS CCA audition students will get shortlisted for interview? Say from an audition group of 30, how many will be shortlisted for interview? 50%? 10 out of 30?

Your question posed, is vague.

Which \" Cca Audition \", are u specifically refering to ?
related to Music

Or

related to dance ?

Answer
=======
Dunman High

DSA for
(string ensemble + guzheng + other Chinese instrument played ) \"Performance Arts\" music related domain -

Round 1 :
Initially, out of 20+ over short-listed candidates who have attended the Audition,

eventually (finally),

only 3 candidates got short-listed, have a chance to attend
Round 2 interview, with
( P / VP + music maestro).

This happened, 3 years ago
(DSA exercise )

depend on which Secondary school, u refering to. Each school has its own unique way, of processing the entire DSA process. No standard answer.

But,
if you are refering to Raffles Girls Secondary school for Academic DSA domain (Mathematics), then

Round 1 : take the subject (Maths) qualifying test

Those who did not do well in the test, game over !

Those who passed the test, will be short-listed to attend
Round 2 interview, on another day.
This was a \"group\" interview, together with rest of other P6 applicants, for the same \"Maths\" domain.

This happened, 3 years ago.

======================≈=====

Anyway, u can always call up the school (you have DSAed) directly and ask them
what's next,
since your kid have already attended the Round 1 Performance task test ?

Thank you for your well wishes, we’re now praying & waiting, it’s the final countdown 🙏

Totally agree that analytically NUSH seems to be the best fit, not under-fitting nor overfitting for my child’s persona/profile & passion; but all is in God’s Hand now.

I hope everyone will get good-fitting school for each kid, not a bad-fit and god-forbid misfit.

Wishing you and your boy the best for a positive outcome for NUSH!
I read your boy's impressive resume.
My boy is in RI Y3 and takes Computer Elective Programme. Though I can't be 100% sure, I don't think he is at your son's level.
I'm not sure what other schools you applied too but hang on k.. An ALscore of 9 is pretty good. He likely can still make it to TJC IP or ACS/VS/SJI O level program where he can switch to IP in later years.
NUSH also have Supplementary Intake Exercise (SIE) in Nov. So don't give up! Keep chasing!
Meanwhile, do targeted practices for his weak areas in EL and ML to lower his overall ALscore and to build a stronger foundation for IP/IB program.
Again all the best! :rahrah:
