may be for those NYPS girls whom Mdm Heng already known them, esp these few years before she moved to NYGH?
NYGH has been known to give COs to GEP students without even seeing them - ie no need for interview nor test.

This was before Mdm Heng's time. I believe NYGH is still continuing with the practice under Mdm Heng. It's a blanket thing for GEP girls who meet certain criteria. Nothing to do with whether they were from NYPS.

jen72....go try
DS achieved a 93.87 percentile in the Raffles World Maths Contest,though I am quite proud of him but it is just a certificate of participation. If he could have achieved slightly better like a Credit, he would have feel better about RI or maybe chances would be higher... Take it as experience.
SMOPS platinum very good!!
DS managed to get a Credit for RI Maths Contest....but only Silver for SMOPS, so hard to say which is more difficult. Some forummer commented before, SMOPS and RI test differently. Me opposite from you, trying for HCI but not RI. -

Jen72, lets keep our fingers crossed. :xedfingers:MotherHen:
Congrats to Jen72 and Yukilei's DS's on being shortlisted
Just wondering if any girls have received notification for interviews?
Thank you MotherHen!

Did anyone try for DSA via asthetics this year??? Pls share your experience.
My dd1 is P5 this year so I started looking through the selected school websites on their requirements.
How many schools should we try for???? Was thinking of 2-3 is that too much?
In one of them, saw that they asked for grade 5 practical and theory in western instruments. I felt :nailbite: . Called the school and acknowledge that I am kiasu so asking ahead. They asked about her background and then told me that the grade 5 thingy is a nice to have. But what is going to make/ break is the actual audition..... she is definitely eligible to apply. But I thought good to do homework earlier so that we can prepare. Also, I am going to show her those requirement eg. overall average cannot be lower than 70%, etc... so she has to work hard.
Asking her piano teacher if can position her for grade 5 theory.... practical is definitely a stretch. But good to learn that it's not MUST have but nice to have. -
As MGS & SCGS is going IP, is it true that even entry via DSA also need to score at least 250?

When you apply, do you have to specify if the DSA meant for IP or Non-IP ? Think if it is for IP there is GAT right? Whether need 250 or not think need to ask the school.
How does ACS (I) do it? Seems like only those 252 and above go IP even if they got DSA offered. Can someone who know clarify? -

In case you miss their T-score cut-off and you can still go to that school lah. But whether for sure IP or not, good question .i3mum:
