Hi
Does anyone know whether it is possible to go for 2 different sports trials for DSA to NYGH via sports?
Thanks. -

mama_10,
I heard from someone who had done GAT test at secondary level (at a boys’ school) that GAT test is like the final round of Gep screening test.
DecJan,
I think most mummies here don’t do dsa for two sport trials. Giving the school a call would give you more accurate information. -
Thanks, VALyap & rains.
I called the sch before posting on KSparent. The person who answered told me can only try 1 sport (after asking around the office, so I thought she might not be very sure). -

Unfortunately my girl cant finished the final round of GEP test questions. So i think no big hope on this GAT too :xedfingers: -
Mama_10,
Don’t lose heart! My kid’s classmate told me she didn’t pass even the first round of Gep screening at P3 but she dsa-ed into nygh via academic after sitting for the GAT test. -

Thanks for yr encouragement
May i know how many question and the time allocated for the GAT ? do they need to take any other test other than GAT for Nanyang?
:thankyou: -
mama_10,
I am afraid I don’t have the answers to your questions. I vaguely remember the girl told me she had to sit for English and Maths papers as well as the GAT.
I was only interested in knowing how she managed to dsa into the school so I didn’t ask her about the time and number of questions. -
Getting through the GAT is only 1 of the hurdles. There was a girl who made it through to the interview session (sports) and was rejected as the interviewer assessed that based on her P5/6 results, she has a high chance to enter NYGH via S1 posting. Apparently, the school would rather reserve those limited DSA (sports) vacancies for athletes whom they assessed would have a low chance of entering via S1 posting.
Well… it turned out that the girl did well in PSLE and got in via S1 posting.
But what a waste of money, time and effort trying for DSA !
