cluelessmama:
The first case I ever heard of. But both are good schools. Congrats!
Not a difficult choice for dd coz she's accepted by rgs and unsuccessful with nygh.musette:
Congrats to everyone who were successful in their DSA application!!
To me, making the choice between RGS and NYGH is more difficult than the DSA process itself.
Now which one to choose? -

:rahrah: :rahrah: Well Done!!!isetan:
DD got co from Cedar but rejected by NYGH. DD says she may drop the offer from cedar and pursuit the PSLE route to NYGH. I am against the idea as in the end may end up δΈζ ζζ. Any opinions from all ksp.?
You need to decide. We faced a similar situation last year. She got CO from another very good school B but my girl's heart was set on going to school A. Finally we didnt take up the CO and waited for PSLE since I felt she had performed well (just felt but not sure). She got into school A. -

[quote=\"musette\"]Congrats to everyone who were successful in their DSA application!!

Now which one to choose?
One is fish and chips, the other is xiao long bao.
One is Angelina Jolie, the other is Gong Li.
Depends on your DD and what culture you want your DD to be immersed.
It's subjective, you go read the two school threads plus another thread RGS vs NYGH ...all the best to a wise decision. :boogie:
I like this : One is Angelina Jolie, the other is Gong Li.
So for RI & HCI, it'll be :
One is Tom Cruise, the other is Jet Li.
[/quote]Oh my, the list will go on....

My DD in similar shoes as yours. A bit perplexed :? because her results are quite good, and she did not think she said anything wrongly during the interview.
Anyway we are still happy, because I had always wanted her to go RGS. :imcool: -

I look at it as \"divine intervention\" - My dd has always been a \"fish n chips\"(sorry snow crystal, I am stealing your line) cum grilled salmon girl rather than a xiao long bao girl. Almost everyone whom I know says that she might eventually land in rgs. It was only after the gep fiesta that she became interested in nanyang. Her reason? - that's a place where she can improve her command of chinese language.
Throughout the whole dsa process, she has told me on several occasions that she would choose nanyang if they accepted her. Actually, I have been quitely worried that she might not fit into nanyang. This is because even she herself has said that her personality and profile are better fits for rgs than nanyang. So with this outcome, at least I can lay fear to rest.
Agree with you that the outcome is a little perplexing. Based on what she told me about the interview, I thought she was quite ok. Perhaps from the interview, they could see the initial \"rgs\" etched on her forehead :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: -
Agree with you... divine intervention. :hi5:
My dh told me this morning that he had been
for the DSA result to show a clear indication on where she should go. I think it cannot get clearer than this :roll:
Just hope my DD will not take it badly when I tell her later, even though she had always been quite neutral between both schools. :xedfingers: -

I like your analysis.
And I agree that sometimes things do happen by divine intervention. And possibly your 'RGS etched on forehead' reason may not be far from the truth.

Thanks! ... I'm asking on behalf of others. Hope it comes soon since it's already the 28th.[/quote]Still no news from NJC, anyone receive CO from NJC yet ?daisypod:
[quote=\"kiasumeme\"]Anyone has news of NJC, SCGS and TKGS?
Hi!! I'm also waiting for SCGS. Applied thru DSA sports & still hv not heard from them. -
:congrats: to all KSPs and their DDs who secured CO/WL at NYGS. Looking at the incredible timings of the postings, there were many sleepless KSPs across SG last nite!
From the outcomes of the HCI and NYGS results, the two schools seem to have the time to review all angles before deciding who to offer rather than looking at pure SA1 results.
Best wishes to all DCs for PSLE regardless of DSA statuses. They are many \"hungry\" P6ers out there aiming for the top.
Our DCs must be feeling our stress for the last weeks on top of prelims and PSLE stresses. They need our support and encouragements ever more.
Superksmum, I like yr DD \"can-do\" attitude.
BTW, not sure abt the Jet Li and Gong Li combi though? Can we find younger pairing?
