Just curious to know what qns those boys were asked during today HCI interview. Some of the qns my boy had were .. What r the tuition he has.. His prefect duty role ... His interest/ambition... He will choose HCI or RI .. And so forth ...

Seems that your ds was quite lucky leh to have no chim qns. How did he ans whether he will choose HCI and RI ? BTW have you heard from RI?

I think he said both are v good schools so is very hard to choose and both were to offer co to him.. He will then discuss with his parents again ....

Bo news from RI .... But having gone thru his first DSA interview with HCI , it serves as a very Gd experience and warm up for him.

Just cusious what was your DS's answer to the question will \"he choose HCI or RI? Why?\"

As for my DS's question. 2 interviewers to 1 student.

1) Why HCI?
2) Have you gone to any oversea trip with your school?
3) Do you love music and why?

All 3 questions were asked in Eng.

The whole process took about 10-15 mins

However, I checked with a few students who gather around the enterence of the all while waiting for my DS, they mentioned that PIER related to the MOTO and \"Behavioral Statements\" of HCI

Moto of HCI - 自 强 不 息
- Perseverance

INTEGRITY 仁义诚信
Be ethical in thought, speech and action at all times.
仁义诚信是立身之本，无论在工作或生活中，都要修身洁行，恪守道德准绳

EXCELLENCE 卓越表现
自强不息 - We will strive for continual improvement.
设订长远及持续发展性的目标，力争上游，精益求精，做到尽善尽美。

RESPECT 彼此尊重
Value self, others and the environment.
自爱自重、尊敬他人，爱护公共设施与自然资源，建设和谐的环保绿色家园。

I am not sure how this group of students know, they are good menz!

So dads who are old boys of Chinese High may remember his.
I remember the first one 自 强 不 息.
I was from HCJC, not Chinese High.

Hi


Anyone can share how was the RI math domain selection test? How tough is it? Tougher then SMOPS, RIPMW? Base on last year result how many could be selected from math domain?

Thank you

Just sent my DS to HCI for DSA, quite a big crowd there. All the kids look smart. And a long queue for GEP, probably all apply for it.

Saw 潘玲玲 and 黄世男 with their kids there as well!

Don't think all gep went for hci. My ds ge class less than half applied for hci but all applied for ri.

There were total 220 GEPers, 100+ SMOPS winners and 120 sports at HCI yesterday.
