        Hi lovemama,Kiasucy, All


        just came back.

        * There were total 5 rows (3 group of chairs in each row) so 45 students I think today.most of them came with a file for project explaining.
        * we waited in the 1st floor and kids alone went to 2nd floor in batches.
        * My DS and 2 other kids (3 of them some how are friends) was interviewed by Principal
        * Students were asked to explain their project. Questions asked what subject you like & what other schools you applied. They were not asked why.
        * Interview was about 30 mins.
        * More I find is they want students to speak from heart rather prepared one.

        in the permises, (not my DS group) one of the kid told he was asked why he wanted for apply RI and what schools applied and another told he was asked how much you want to join RI.

        The teachers were around so kids were scared to talk much in the permises.

        also my DS said Principal had asked any thing kids want to know about RI .the 3 had good chat with her on this topic .

        hope this helps. All the best.

          First test is on MO type of questions.
          More difficult than SMOPS.

          The second test has only a few questions but requires pretty lengthy explanation; for instance, need to explain why the given mathemical statements are true.

          All the best!

            Just happened to get some statistics on how many students from my DS GEP class got selected to NUSH selection camp. more than 35 (total cohert is 42) . This is just one school I am talking about . Selection criteria is going to be tough I think sigh πŸ˜“


            leeven,
            not to worry, at least for my DS's GE class, not many of them has opted for NUSH DSA. If I'm not wrong, < 50% has applied for it. Good Luck!!!

            thnx yukilei.

                      πŸ˜„ best of luck to all who is going for tomorrow's interview. it was more like a chit chat so not to worry to much ( I was imagining too much today)

                      Parents who go for RI interview for next few days share your experience and how many kids were in (we can see the stat / chances our kids have)
