Wow. This year they sure need a lot longer time to import the tea leaves.


Hm... Wondering if drought in US has anything to do with this?
:boogie:

Or maybe they need corn to make the cakes which is also in short supply!?!

The giraffes' necks would have stretched and reached to south africa by then.

Waiting outside é school gate now, none of them release yet! Hopefully DD can make it to RV thru DSA, otherwise hv to worry till end Nov:-/

Hi Kiasuursula,
have your child finish her interview with RV? Heard some interviews were held yesterday. Care to share what kind of questions do they ask during the interview?

:congrats: BeContented.
Mainly group discussion and debate. As long as your DS is open-minded, it should not be a problem to your DS.

But you must learn to immerse yourself in Chinese culture and traditions when you enter NYGH. Discard the diet coke. Embrace the long jing cha.

I just wonder how many students or parents will give up a CO from RI, instead take up the offer from other schools? Maybe a few percent.

I have seen, also heard many parents and students who received multiple CO mentioning \"not sure which one to choose\", \" my DH and DS and DW perfer other schools but my son want to follow his classmate\", \"my heart is with my Alma mater, but my head telling me to go with RI\", ...etc. In the end also go to \"Bishan Hill.\" :? :? :?

well said. I asked the same questions few days before any one choose NUSH for RI no replies hmmm.

I am in same boat . I am :please: praying my DS takes wise decision and comes to reality that Brand name / Alma mater/long history/Friends wont help him to craft his future the way he wants.

at this juncture, it should be wise for the parents/kid to do research on the curriculum of each of the IP school that has offered CO and then compare and make a decision before last week of October.

putting away brand names - to choose a suitable curriculum for the child in an objective way. any of the schools has great tradition; but friends are not unimportant ..... don't want the kid keeps saying 'aiya, all my friends are there...i am here alone' ..... though they will grow out of it and make new friends and lasting friendship. some of these sec school friendship will last throughout lifetime
