Agree!!! :salute:[/quote]Of course! HCI & RI are equally good schools (in their own unique ways), so no need to compare them always.. Furthermore, there are many other good schools in S'pore too, besides RI & HCI..
thee are also many smart ones choosing to go HCIverykiasu2010:
[quote=\"KS4Son\"]
If you are referring to RI as the other good school, I totally agree with you. No need to kidnap, students dream to go there.
no doubt about it
What I meant was, the boys who chose to go to the other goods schoolS, all went there on their own accord.. They were definitely not \"kidnapped\" from HCI, by the other good schoolS (plural noun hor).. -

but not surprising, during GE2011, part of King's Road - Charming Garden is zoned Tanjong Pagar (no need to vote), part of King's Road (NYPS) is Holland-Bukit Timah, and across HCI, Watten is zoned Moulmein
won't be surprised even if they zone NYPS in the east or north :evil: -

I think they need to balance out all the schools somehow equally.Interesting!

You will notice many interesting scenarios too, Pei Tong Primary which is in Clementi is in South 2.
Mayflower in Ang Mo Kio and Yuying in Hougang is in South 1 while some other Ang Mo Kio schools like Deyi is in North 6 while Hougang Sec is in North 1. -
Hi! Can anyone advise me? My boy is currently playing Cello in Chinese Orchestra. His school is going for SYF soon and he will be taking grade 4 exam in June. He would like to apply DSA but his results are quite average. Which secondary school can he try? What must he do to apply DSA? How is the application like? Thanks!

Quite a number of schools to apply under DSA for Chinese Orchestra. Depends if you want IP or non-IP and where you stay.
eg. Dunman High, River Vally High, Catholic High, Chung Cheng, Pasir Ris Secondary, Ngee Ann Secondary., etc. -
RI Primary Math World Contest Round Results out liao. My DS did not manage to get into top 50. He was ranked around 84th percentile. Was initially thinking to apply to RI DSA Math domain. Now, thinking whether should we just give up the idea. He is from mainstream. Heard that getting into RI via DSA Math domain for mainstream boys is practically zero. Anyone can advise? TIA.

RI Math World Contest is just one of the olympiads. There's also SMOPS and some primary school students now take SMOJ as well. And your son may also have taken the olympiad by NUSH plus AMC? He scored in the 84th percentile for the RI MO which is good. Don't give up. If he does well in SMOPS and the DSA selection test he still stands a chance.
There is at least one parent here whose mainstream kid got into RI via Math domain. Don't despair. -
