      What Mdm jtoh said is correct

      Last year my DS also same situation, among the top in smops platinum ranking etc, got international awards in others cca, though he got HCI CO, he later used his psle to appeal in to RI, we got phone call from RI right after the psle result was submitted to RI

      So please tell you son to cheong psle and aim for RI

      Sure got hope, don't forget the other half of RI intake is via psle

      It seems that even a SMOPS platinum doesn't seem to impress RI consistently, at least for last and this year. In fact, has RI ever issued a CO on math? I wonder

      yes...a few get co under math domains (mainstream)

        Well, the girls' schools seems to like SMOPS platinum very much...I got it, and RGS, NY and NUSH all gave me CO. I'm not even a GEPper.

            Seemed like only the GEP students getting the CO from HCI. Anyone from the mainstream receiving the CO/WL from HCI too? I know it is near zero for mainstream to DSA to RI? What about the chances to DSA to HCI? Anyone know of any mainstream students getting a CO from HCI? Please share. Thanks.


            To those who had received the rejection lettter. Not to be discouraged. I feel that it may be easier for the main stream to get to RI/HCI through their PSLE score than DSA.

            Jia you! Jia you! :rahrah: :rahrah:

                TIA for your reply.

                      Ha ha no wonder someone had changed his initial position on honoring the CO accepted :siam:

                      No need to wonder! I have long ago gave my rationale for my change in position with regard to changes after accepting the CO.

                      The schools made it very clear to me they welcome it and they facilitate it. You got to experience it to realize how helpful they are.

                      You can try it if you don't believe :evil:

                        Not sure if it's true, but my ds2 said that his classmate who has RI CO was not given HCI CO. This boy has Platinum for SMOPS.
