        Our imported chinese sport stars must hve weighted their chances of making it to China’s national teams vs-a vs our national teams. Same can be applied to a pupil with Psle T-score of 265 without any art, leadership or sporting talents. His parents hve to weight the probability of their ds being recognised by RI as oppose to other good schs.

        I share the view of someone in this forum that mentioned what’s the use of a top sch winning all the national accolades if that is not his child.

          cylg:

          care to elaborate on \"we have too many of the same kind in one school\" means?

          Ok, I am walking on mine field now. If you have noticed and make an estimation from the number of GEP students that is attending the interview, with a session of 60 students per day, and interview dates are 18, 19, 20, 26, 27 July (was there any other dates?), we have about 300 boys from the GEP cohort, almost everyone are there. And the other cohort of mainstream top achievers getting in through PSLE, my guess work is that they also want to go this school in Bishan, we have the cream (this is the part that I might flame) of Singapore all in one school. All having the same learning ability, maybe some will be better, but the competition is always at the higher level. Don't think you going to see too diverse a learning ability.

          Oic...tks for elaborating 😄

            lagi more cheem :? :?

            imported sports talents : because we go out there to scout for them and use money to entice them and hope they win medals for singapore....some people buay song some people bo chap

            so if a top school win all national accolades = all belong to foreigners meh ?

            confusing comparison lah....liulian cannot compare with angmo liulian leh

            so must be his child then got count is it ? extremist !

                    I always have this feeling that those elite schools take in students via sport DSA is like hiring 打手 to make their schools look good. No right or wrong but just what I feel. 一个愿打,一个愿挨。
