Hi Hiaweh,

Thanks!!
In order to get a better chance for interview, I believe edusave character, scholarship and eagles award will place the child in a better position. HCI likely will only shortlist 'Head & Vice head' candidates (prefectorial/CCA). *You may check out the YouTube link at 8:19)

Congrats to parents whose dd/ds successfully DSAed into their dream schools. Having dd successfully DSAed Bilingualism to NYGH few years back, now I’m keen to find out about HCI Bilingual domain for my ds. Would be highly appreciated if any parents can share this year selection test, interview questions etc for HCI Bilingualism domain. Tia.

Hi, anyone DSA Infocomms/Robotics & successfully got CO to HCI? Please share your DS's portfolio - CCA, academic & Robotics competition etc. Is there any selection test, to perform any specific task? If yes, what was involved in the selection test? Also what are some of the interview questions being asked? Was is group or 1-to-1 interview? Tia for kind parents sharing.

My boy got a CO for Infocomm to HCI, but eventually, he give up as RI math WL converted into CO. He chose RI because of the distance.

He learned Scratch, Python, and C++. Finished 200+ questions in codebreakers, and win a few MO awards plus an HCIC award. Forget to mention, we shared 200 C++ code files when asked to provide supporting documents.
The interview is a group interview of 2 teachers and 3 pupils. They are asked to do 2 logic & programming problems within 30 mins.

I can’t really remember since it was 4y ago and someone else’s son. I recalled it was local social topic and they are required to write an opinionated piece. Think of this as the upper sec compo the HCL girls need to write in nygh?
