      To other parents whose kid applied to SJI, please share if you have heard from SJI.

      Have not heard from SJI so far. But I am rather impressed by the way they conducted the selection test/interview. Very professional. They even provided the kids with drinks and bread and each of them even received a book at the end of it. And this is for just $30 compared to a much bigger amount some other schools charged.

          Hello, I am new here. Did any of your DS/DD receive any news from DHS? Heard that no news from DHS for interview or test = to no chance?

            Not sure. My dd's classmates interview is next tuesday.


            Hmmm....in that case, probably DS not selected too.

            BeContented, you should call them up. All her classmates call up this afternoon to check themselves.[/quote]Hi Shurley, thanks. I just called RV. DS interview will be next Tues too.

              Yes, I called them and they told me that they will call those who are shortlisted for interview. You may try to call them. My dd was not shortlisted.

                      sweet concerns πŸ˜‚ .
                      1. we parents feel for my DS, ACS (I) is better as ACS (I) is more relaxed than RI .
                      2. To me RI for excellence, My DS need to work hard for every thing including to get in to CCA he wants . πŸ˜“
                      3. currently got NUSH CO . waiting for ACS (I) & RI results :scratchhead:


                      Agree with Leeven. πŸ˜„
                      The ACSI boys do look like they have a lot more fun. Haven't seen many muggers there. Great sense of humour and eloquent speakers. Definitely looks more relaxed..
                      And this is coming from ex-Rafflesian πŸ˜„

                      πŸ˜„ julialai , can you share your experience as ex-Rafflesian on getting the CCA's / RA subjects that you preferred. I got to know that students need to go for audition/test to join the CCAs . How hard is for the students to hope up when they dont get the CCA's /RA subjectsthey want to have . Will they be forced to pick any CCA/ RA due to this and affecting their career. for example RA english is given to a student who wishes to go for Medicine / Finance related.
