Funx3, I think it's a shoo-in for your DD. RGS and NYGH looooove gymnasts.

Anyone knows if RGS and NYGH accept DSA using Ballet?

If so, I am sure there will be TONS of girls doing that! Ballet is so common nowadays and getting Grade 5 or above by P6 is not that impossible.

Don't think either school has DSA Ballet.

Grade 5 ballet is minimum for DSA to some schools. By P6, lots of girls would have taken Grade 5, if not Grade 6.[/quote]Does anyone know which sec schs accept DSA ballet then?

Which one does he prefer?

Tentatively is RI...

So his interview answers for RI are straightforward. Problem is for HCI interview when they ask him \"If you were offered both RI and HCI, which would you choose.\"[/quote]yup jtoh...I was also thinking about how to answer this question :idea: ...should he say still considering? ... see who can offer him more things (just joking)...

SCGS, MGS. Also a couple of schools in the East.

IMO, I thought both SCGS and MGS have a high % of their affiliated pri students in the sec sch, maybe RGS as well to some extent. So personally I don't prefer my gal to enter these schs for fear of being the odd-one-out.

Maybe that's why NYHG is popular coz it is sort of a melting pot.

Oops, a bit :offtopic:

Wonder why good old-fashion-schools like RV, Cedar, Crescent girls' etc don't have performing arts (dance-base) in their list of DSA ??? Why it seems like it is concentrating at those 'elite', more 'english' sec schs?

Don't know about Ballet specifically, but for Dance perhaps? Last year's can be used as a guideline, and hopefully it doesn't differ too much for this year?

Well, Cedar is only interested in Sports DSA. RV does have under performing arts: http://www.rivervalleyhigh.moe.edu.sg/cos/o.x?c=/wbn/pagetree&func=view&rid=31399
