              I believe these cases happen in all top IP school...NUSH is not alone lah

              Didn't say it doesn't happen elsewhere. Just saying what I know to be true of a specific school in response to parents' posting that if their kids were not successful via DSA they would reconsider sending their kids to NUSH, even if their PSLE grades allowed them to. However, given that NUSH is a specialized school with its accelerated Math and Science programme, it wouldn't surprise me that there are more students having a tough time in the later years compared to other top IP schools which are more broad-based in nature.

              Having said that, there are a number of brilliant students in NUSH who thrive in the school's highly accelerated environment and continue to surpass their teachers' expectations.

              ....but not all students got to study the accelerated one right? just like RI...only some are selected to join RA programme right?...i m still blur lah hahaha[/quote]That's why I say that there are likely to be more students struggling at the higher levels at NUSH compared to other top IP schools, because of NUSH' accelerated programme.

                      But NUSH says they strongly encourage the rejected students to reapply again with PSLE score. In a way it may give false impression to the kids and parents so they reapply with PSLE score.
                      If a kid can get into NUSH with PSLE score, the kid can get into almost every other school too.

                      NUSH's condition is that the student must have scored A* in both Math and Science. I guess that helps in selecting students who are strong in the two subjects. But it doesn't mean they'll do well in NUSH.
