Like to ask about NUSH DSA.


Have paid for the selection test and input the info online. So that's all right? Next is to take the test and wait for result.......no further action required right?

And a reminder to those applying to NUSH....last date of registration is 17Jun'12. I nearly missed it......today already 14Jun.

I heard that if if you pass the test, you will be invited to go for a day camp which is the2nd stage of test.

Can I ask what other schools did you apply for your child? We applied RGS, ScGS, BPGH, NusHigh,MGS

You've applied for many schools, across a spectrum of tiers. Which of these would be your daughter's dream school? And what would your dd do if she was offered a confirmed offer from her 5th choice school? Would she still accept it given that she might be able to get into her first choice school via her PSLE results?

To my DD and I , all the above 5 schools are schools that we like. If any of the 5 accepts my DD, she would gladly accept the offer. Cos' we dont want to think about she might get into her first choice kind of situation... Nobody knows what will happen to the result!!! Even though she might be good all these years from P4 to P6, but PSLE results is so unpredictable.... BTW the 5 schools above are not in order of favourite 1st choice, 2nd and so....

Would it be stressful going for DSA test/interview for 5 schools? Would appreciate if you could let us know your experience and what kind of questions asked during the diff interviews.

That's why I am also applying DSA for 3 Schools for my DS. So far, he has gone through an interview for a school and will be sitting for GAT for another 2.
