      [quote=\"MotherHen\"]DD just finished her nygh interview. She said it's a really big group of about 20 girls, and she didn't have much to say. She felt that her chances with nygh has just gone down the drain...:(


      DD had her interview at NYGH yesterday. It's only a group of 6 gals to 2 interviewers (the principal and the vp) and they have to do group discussion while the interviewers observed. Only 2 questions were asked (1 in English and 1 in Chinese). They only took about 20 minutes in total.

      Basically, there are 2 groups of interviewers yesterday and the gals are group into 6s.


      May I know is your dd in the gep or mainstream? thx.

      Did your dd enjoy the interview?[/quote]Ge

            Dd applied thru GE. She enjoys the interview as their group was very co-operative even thought they do not each other. Furthermore, the principal was also very friendly and able to make the gals feel relax.

              Great to know that your dd enjoyed the interview.

              It's nice to know that the principal is very friendly and makes the girls feel relaxed.

                Yes, dd commented that Mdm Heng is really good and very eloquent. For those dd or ds who has yet to attend the interview, all the best and good luck.

                Just remember to remind our kids to stay calm. Basically, the interviewers just want to see how confident is the kid.

                    One forumer shared that English Domain in RGS contains 15 girls. Some girls tend to talk a lot without giving chance to other girls. This shows that facilitators are lousy, do not know how to control the class.


                    Worst to worst, ask the person who talks so much to SHUT UP (it is usually dominated by one of the races). This is not being rude but survival. Don't need to be well-mannered or raise hands, just interrupt whosoever wants to talk. Otherwise, the chances to be selected are slim, if the 'quieter' girls chose to be quiet and let the 'noisy ones' to win the race.

                    Lets not mention any race here and spoil the good sharing spirit among parents . Beware children also read this forum , this includes my DS. To be chatty or quite in nature is not specific to race.I hope moderator delete relevant posts. Sry if I hurt anyone.
