          both RI and HCI do not require personal statement. In fact, HCI does not even require nicely prepared portfolio.....same for RI.

          I know of people who last minute filled in the data online, print out, stapled the certs, and that's it ! One very interesting case for RI DSA - the boy only attached a catalog of his work in an exhibition and he got in

                      I always wonder about the 75%, 80%, 85% academic average that some schools say is needed for DSA application. But every school has different standards, so in this case, it seems like students in schools with more lax exam papers will have greater chance?

                        funny, now "quote" button is missing


                        replying to phankao

                        the selection tests set by the DSA schools will ensure they are measure by the same standard, regardless of what marks which school they are from
