      Nowadays, parent so poor thing. Parent do all the admin work and need to do so much research but yet children not appreciating, still takes thing for granted. Prelim is coming soon and yet my dd still walking up and down, relax and hope miracle can happen............. :salute: :mad:

      Ya, I also wonder how to get them learn to be appreciative? May be the more appreciative they show, the more thing we do for them, and the more thing we do for them the more they take things for granted. 😂

        No interview for GEP domain. SA1 >75%, no GAT, No HAST no Interview. Just submit form and wait for reault.

        Really? So good??? How many GE class do they have in Dunman High? Never considered this sch as it's too far from my place. & the school is also a bit inconvenient.

        It is the same for the other new IP schools also. So GEPpers who score <80% might want to include these schools for DSA.[/quote]I think the problem for geppers is that they wish to continue with IP schools that offer SBGE. In this case, there're only 7 of them & Dunman High is one of them. Based on what GoodDad has mentioned, does it means Dunman High is the easiest route for geppers who score > 75%?

          Hi,


          For those who have yet to attend the interview in RGS, you might like to take note that the interviewers might ask the gals to choose their own topics instead of asking them questions. The gals were asked to choose their own topics to speak during the interview in RGS. The kids were being counterattacked by the interviewers when they mentioned something.

          All the best

          wow!!!!! meaning they have the freedom to choose. Even its about the topic of winning a competition?

          Yah, you are right. They can choose any topics to talk.

            What kind of topics at Rgs interview? Care to share:) tx

            The questions are quite wide. It can also be out of the box question or questions like how many school did you applied for DSA, why should we choose you etc.

              Anyway, GEPpers who score <80% may still see RI/RGS/HCI/NYGH as dream schools and securing a place in the newer IP schools or other IP schools means giving up a place in their dream schools.

                  Seems like DSA via sports recommended by coach is easier. No need interview and test at all. The one I know, he is 2nd in the singapore swimming team. Not sure what sub-team, because when I search thru swimming team members, don’t see his age group in there.

                    I have called up SCGS on Monday and they mentioned that emails/phone calls will be sent out starting this week for the selection interview. Have anyone receive any call or emails yet? :scratchhead:


                    Yes, my girl got shortlisted for interview on 1 Aug 3.30pm. SCGS said the interview last only 15 mins. Anyone know what questions will they be asking?

                    Did you receive via email or telephone call? I am also curious to know what questions will they be asking.

                      Which school did he DSA into?

                        Received via phone call. SCGS will confirm whether are you able to attend this session. If not, they can give you another date. If ok, they will drop you an email.
