[quote=\"Mrs Ong\"]Hi,


Can anyone tell me about RGS DSA? I heard must get a T score of 240 even they accept the child under DSA. Then how to opt for the school as the child's T score is not out yet?

Who did you hear it from? The only information you should accept as truth is from the school. If the school stated in a letter that there is a minimum acceptable T-score then that is true. If the school didn't state anything, it is just a rumour.

This year, there is provisional offer, states that PSLE T score must be >235, but I am not sure whether the score requirement is same for all provisional offers.[/quote]I believe it's a case by case basis. The \"unconditional\" DSA offer only requires meeting the minimum national cut off for the \"express stream\".

Cheers

[quote=\"AMAS\"]Hi,

Comparing VS and DHS
Anyone got information please advise
My DS is stronger in EL than MT but he seem keen of DHS.
DHS is further away then VS from the place we stay and scare we will struggle for the MT in DHS.
Thanks
AMAS

Please advise
:imconstipated:

AMAS, if you're worry abt MT, I can tell you that VS's MT is not as easy as well. I think, most of the HCL in sec is not easy. My cousin's DS is very strong in MT during primary school. Now he's in VS, he only manage to score 50+ for HCL during his first year in VS.

Hi BrownBelt,
Thanks for your advise
By the way how are the sch respond when your cousin's DS get 50+.
I don't want my DS got to much pressure on HCL
Thanks
:thankyou:
AMAS[/quote]AMAS, this I'll have to check with my cousin. I didn't ask much on it.

In the past PSLE has always been released on a Thur (2* Nov), so hope this year result release on 22nd Nov (Thur) latest.

Some of the listed schools are all IP (eg: RGS).

I need to understand on the 3rd language policy


1. is it has to be decided when PSLE results are out. can we join after joining the secondary school.
2. is it a paper that students have to pass to get o-level/a-level/diploma.
3. can they just join the 3rd language just for getting to know a new language.
4. for joining European universties is it a must to know one of the european languages . what is the advantage ,

please advise.
