        [quote=\"cylg\"]I think there r a lot of surprises for this yr RI DSA!...some with less than 80% got CO & some got low 80% got WL/rejected....so really dont know what's the selection criteria....some kids fall under the \"talented\" or \"all-rounder\" category by many parents' standard...but still got rejected...kinda scary right 😞


        I also very curious to know what's their selection criteria...
        Maybe for gep > 80%, sa1 result grading 1-10, cca grading 1-5, other talent grading 1-5, leadership role 1-5, DSA interview grading 1-5 etc et c :scratchhead:

        may be you want to give a call to HCI ? :rotflmao: :rotflmao:[/quote]Aiyo I am referring to RI la .... Maybe u insider know huh :evil: .. When u meet mrs lim next time, pls find out from her 😉

              Don't think so lah.
              Maybe the one with SA1>80 but got rejected was the one that answered that he wanted RI becos of parental pressure.
              Or the child told them during the interview that he preferred ACSI/NUSH/HCI..........

                I know you were referring to RI, but I could also see your neck just got longer and longer waiting for the postman from HCI even though you got RI in the bag alredi :evil: :evil:

                  I’m trying to find out how my DS’s two schoolmates who went for the RI interview in their PE attire fared but so far DS didn’t get any info on them.

                      cestmoi,


                      Your dd's Chinese is very impressive. Knocked my socks off. 🙂 Did she apply through Chinese DSA for RGS?

                      :salute: Hi jtoh,
                      Nah, DD preferred to apply under English as she felt that it was more 'powderful' :rotflmao: (actually more confident & comfortable)....
                      She is linguistically inclined but needs more time in maths & sc usually. 😄

                      Your dd is indeed talented, cestmoi. 🙂
