DSA 2023

[topboy]

My girl would like to apply under 2 domains for same school. I understand only 1 CO will be offered if successful. However, would she be given the chance to go for trial selection/ written tests for both domains ( if shortlisted) ? Thank u!!

My DS did it last year, went for the trials for both domain. However, it was 1 academy and 1 sports domain.

provided u are short-listed, for both domain, applied for.

If u are short listed for only one single domain, not both,
then

u attend all the tests involved, for that short-listed domain only.

Whether u can be short-listed or not, that will depend on how strong your other P6 opponents or rivals are, for the same domain applied for.

I don't have experience on leadership but just based on what i heard from friends who applied via leadership. I know of kids who are head prefects and exco members, scoring AL5-6 but they were not selected for interview for the top tier IP schools (R and H schools).. so i think the competition is very stiff, since there's so many potential candidates. You will need to showcase a lot more for leadership, on top of their usual leadership duties. However one of them managed to get a CO another dual track IP boys school. So it really depends on which schools are you are targeting and the profiles of the candidates that applied ie the competition. You can browse through past DSA threads and read up on those successful COs for leadership to get an idea, their profiles were VERY impressive.
Good luck!

Thanks for your information.

Like that even it is shorlisted for interview, the chance is quite low for IP school.

have a gym cca only gives you that cca to enjoy in school.



However,
Dsa is competed at a totally different level - sad to admit, depends a lot on the parents’ wealth. (Of cos the kids talents also la)

Full RI 200th founder’s day ceremony recording.


I personally like the part where 4 generations of students shared their experiences of RI spirits. Especially the 1st one (scroll forward to 2:26) from class of 1954. He revealed how RI selected it students back then when there wasn’t a national PSLE exam.
