My daughter said that today’s interview was really hard. They had only 1.5 min to present their personal character information such as: What’s ur strengths and weaknesses, the CIP you did, and how you are going to cope with the stress in the coming PSLE, speaking in chinese. Then they will have a debate and a group discussion and you need to present it. ><

Even trained pigeons take less than 8 hours to fly from west to east of singapore, including stops to poo and pee.

Seems tough. Consists of a self-intro in Chinese(weakness & strength, how he cope with stress), a debate in groups of 3 & a pic conversation/presentation.
Hi BeContented,
How is your DS's interview in RV? Whether today's interview is only for academic students? How many shortlisted applicants do you think are there? I'm just curious... ... :?
Not sure the category today, but DS & classmate belong to academic. According to DS estimation, he thinks there ~70 candidates for today's session. -

Just to find out though my DS is only in P5 this yr. Must a child that has been offered a CO accept it and confirmed immediately with the school?
I understand that there's a form to be filled up after PSLE for those who are applying thru DSA indicating your choice of preferred schools (whether WL or CO).
Whilst i understand the logic for VS asking for acceptance early, I thought the above mentioned by Lilac66 was the procedure set by MOE too. Rather confused. Is this the first time VS is asking for early acceptance? Have other schools done the same before? -

I guess VS IP wants to sieve out those not keen on their school and give the chance to other boys really hoping to go to their school. They may even offer more WLs downwards to even more boys if many reject their COs.

Other secondary schools have been asking kids with COs to step forward and reject if they are not keen in their school. But :slapshead: very few have done so..can you imagine some kids are hanging on to 3 or 4 COs? I am sure some may even heard of more :yikes: Some one posted that the parents will say undecided or not sure if can cope in the dream school etc etc... But another boy who is genuinely interested in a particular secondary school but ranked just outside its WL list has been denied a DSA chance :sad: Also most of the time, the kids are only deciding between Sch A vs Sch B :evil:
There is much fine-tuning needed in DSA process....

Fine-tuning in mindset of kiasu people, more like.

Restricting applications to not more than 3?
Asking kids with more than 1 COs to decide their choice before DSA exercise closing in order for the school to grant CO to others on the WLs but this will be a tedious exercise because the one who is on WLs for school A might also already have one COs so will he/she have ample time to exercise her choice.
It also depends on how fast the school announce the results.
Unless we computerise the process by a central system like S1 posting where you need to indicate the choices by priority. -
