2ppaamm, u r rite! Firstly, b4 the interview, ones must be good enough to be invited for interview … not the cart b4 e horse !…..
Best is to study hard, get high T-score of 265 or more, then u r the one calling the shot, u choose the school & not the school choose u! :imcool: -
Hi,
My DD is above average in her school, has a sliver in NMOS…we were not keen to take up DSA except for NUSH since the chances for mainstream students are quite slim. But now not sure if it’s a waste not to try out? Thinking of trying out RGS under Maths domain…should be no harm cos first round is GAT and if she does not get through, at least we said we’ve tried…what do you guys think? -
ASLMUM:
you sound half hearted ? NMOS Silver is not a good indicator. Math domain in RI and RGS is extremely tough, not even HCI's SMOPS top 20 platinum has any chance.Hi,

Ya, exactly. Just felt that perhaps should focus on PSLE instead then to try out for the DSA and be dissappointed. Did not want to DSA for other schools since my DD has set her eyes on RGS or NUSH.
Well, will have a think about it… -

please don't DSA for the school with the idea of a back up but has no serious intention of ever attending the schoolYa, exactly.

Well, will have a think about it....
also no need to DSA for school that can use PSLE result to walk in -
RGS sport dsa process was tedious: from the 500 words statement of achievements -> GAT -> Sports trial -> interview by a panel of interviewers ->informal interview on parents for their commitment n support by teacher in charge.
it was surely stressful.
but if your child has something outstanding to offer, can give it a shot! :xedfingers: . otherwise you may feel sayang, but pls manage your child's time efficiently -

same here, my DD only has eyes on RGS after attending the openhouse and also her seniors are there. Only one school to try dsa; one or nothing......quite a gamble :nailbite:
we made that one choice jointly and we made it :celebrate: -
