@Poohwei heard from DD’s classmate (whose sister went for rgs sco trial 2 years ago) that there is no second round for rgs science. They are asked some questions during the trial and teacher scribe down their answers and observations during the performance task. We were glad to hear this becos speaking to people is not one of DD’s forte.
Anyone knows roughly when RGS will starting handing out offers / rejections?

@Nanzzlim absolutely.
There are also many cases where some parents purposefully seek out private coaches who coach the teams of dream schools, for years of private classes. There is definitely a conflict of interest here, when the coach has had business from these kids for years, and might continue to.
I think MOE really needs to look at this to deconflict interest.

@Nanzzlim actually the way the sports trials are conducted are really quite strange. Logically it should be a proper match or competition where they pick the top 3 scorers/winners. Isn’t that how sports (including Olympics) works?
It’s weird how the PSLE is a one-off chance for the kids to enter schools via S1 posting. But DSA sports trials are not objectively selecting the top 3 winners (but rather, deferring to the coaches’ subjective judgement on who is a “better” overall long-term player that has “potential” to win C div for the school). Hearsay some badminton trials are like just coach walking around while the kids spar with the senior players. Not even a full match with points.

If a child applies 2 DSA domains at the same school and gets shortlisted, will there usually be 1 or 2 interviews?
Anyone has this experience?
