Just recvd rejection email from RGS.. Scratching our heads why DD is rejected...DD is a mainstreamer, top gal in a neighbourhood sch, scoring above 90% since P1, has UNSW High distinctions & other awards, won at least two individual trophies for National Competiton in sports since P4. During the last interview with RGS, DD felt she had done her best & her classmate who was in the same interview as her, witnessed the interviewers being visibly impressed with DD & she congrats her for her superb eloquence & quick thinking. DD as usual in her humble self dismissed the praises.

Luckily, we hv set our eyes with NYGH ( of which a CO has already been recvd :rahrah: ) way before & there was just no deep sense of disappointment but full of WHYs huh? :?

Hi Cestmoi,
First of all, I wan u to know that I (many too) am very impressed with yr DD achievement. It's \"their\" lost not yr DD, I strongly believes that yr DD will excel further with NYGH! A fine lady in the making! :imcool:

I second it cestmoi!!! :rahrah:[/quote] :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: Much appreciated, vlim!

Hi cestmoi, sorry to hear that. I'm sure with your dd's credentials, she will excel in any school she chooses to go.

Ya, sorry to hear and the good thing is that she had secured a CO. Yes I do agree that it's rather puzzling as there doesn't seem to be a norm to this year's DSA. Cousin's son achieved NSW High distinction in math, SMOPS Platinum, RIWMC Distinction, NMOS Gold and yet was rejected by RI too. :?[/quote] :thankyou: for ur understanding, gracy! DD will bounce back in no time! :siam:

If The sch Allow .... Gym + Shooting.
She Tried it During Open House, and It was Love at First Trial!

Possibly her hitting a Near Bull-eyes on her very first Shoot got something to Do with It ....

Go for the Shooting trial, then if she's selected can write in to ask permission to do 2 CCAs. Looks like your dd's got her days planned for RGS. :rahrah:

Actually the Coach ask her to join the Club if she gets in to RGS ....
Even took Down her Contact details during the open house ....

Hi cestmoi,

Sorry to hear that your dd didn't get a CO from RGS. Your dd applied under academics right? It's hard to say why she didn't get the offer. Maybe her interview and GAT weren't ranked as highly as some of the other girls. In any case, your dd is set on going to NYGH and she's got a CO from them already. So that's fantastic.

:thankyou: jtoh..Yes, DD applied under academics & the results came as a surprise to us cos DD felt much more confident in her RGS interview (although she was almost being sabo by a foreigner) than her NYGH interview. Her classmate who was with her in the interview was all praise for her as she cld see the interviewers being impressed by her answers.

Whatever the case, in my pm to one of the forumners weeks ago, I did highlight that before we embarked on this DSA journey, we have prepared DD mentally with the layman saying that when u wake up the next morning, u may find a higher mountain than before! :rotflmao: & SHE DID! :rotflmao:
