      My ds is under smops for hci dsa this morning. According to him, only 35 boys, were divided into 5 groups for interviews. His classmate with gold medel was not shortlisted. Just wondering how they shortlisted the candidates since we only submitted very little information to hci (p5&p6 sa1 result). Any ideas?

      DS also went for HCI this morning under SMOPS. Not sure the grouping, but DS said there's 200+ in the hall (GEP + SxxG/SMOPS + Sports). His interview has only 3 boys in a group including him. He only remembered questions were about him, why HCI, what if he din get offered, garden bay etc. DS cannot remember his response :faint:
      As for CL & EL test : compo & compre. Apparently, DS is the only from his Sch, din see anyone he knows.

      He's damn relieved it's over even tho he blank-out, cannot remember. Now playing XBox happily with neighbor. πŸ˜‚

      πŸ™ hopefully will hear good news ;). All the best to others too.

          Dear all,


          DS went for HCI interview tis morning. According to him, there're 800+ applicants this year. 250 from GEP. There're about 7 students taking turn to go into the interview room. The question he get is all abt himself on why he want to go HCI. The interviewer continually to ask more base on his answer. so to him, it's more like chit chat session. His classmates were ask abt the response test ans n current affair.
          Your ds so lucky lor ... mine kenna a very aggressive student leader that asked a lot of challenging qns, from info about himself to current affair, some in Mandarin too. Duno wat he is out for, must terkan my little boy ... 🀷 ds stay :imcool: and got to ε…΅ζ₯ε°†ζŒ‘ πŸ˜“ πŸ˜“

                  My DS think he is lucky. He said maybe he elaborate a lot on y HCI. Those questions asked are really drilling into his answer. When he said \"a\", they ask what make u say \"A\" & why \"A\" and so on. However this does not mean he has done well. Just that he felt relieved that he can answer. Good luck to our DS!
