DSA 2011

Zann:
Heard for the batch of 2008, majority of GE boys , who are also high scorer in PSLE, from my ds's sch put HCI as first choice while offered both CO from HCI and RI. Not heard of the situation last two years though. For last yr batch, my ds could find some in HCI and some in RI uniform when they visited school on teachers' day.sunflowermom:
Am not sure is this a stupid question.
May I know any one who has CO from RI and not putting RI as first choice?
As for girls, most of them are in NYGH school uniform according to ds. Very very few in NUSH uniform.
I know some ASC(P) boys select ACSI and reject RI CO. They are ASC die hard fans.
They apply RI just for back up. -

At least now we have closure. We have all came into this DSA together in this forum and we all felt the relieve as well.Finally received the NJC rejection letter.
Well at least there is a closure to the whole saga.
Time to move on.
Best of luck to your DS in the PSLE, look forward, take the DSA as one experience for our children, and us. ε²εοΌ -

[quote=\"verykiasu2010\"]I think all the IP schools has class size not more than 30/class
No leh, some got >30 per class. Don't know where the expensive fees go to... :skeptical: :moneyflies: If they charge so much, they should maintain all class sizes between 25-30 max.
Hi
Suggest to go ACSI. 25 students per class and all class rooms are installed with air con. So your school fee sure worth it....[/quote]Good suggestion! Will put ACSI as one my ds choice for S1 posting...provided result permit :xedfingers: -

Emmmmm ... Really ... Who is he
and worse, some after started to wear the grey uniform still decide to switch to white shirt with metal buttons plus khaki shortsSnow Crystal:
Given NJC's more selective stance this year, getting a CO is not easy. Your son has tried his best. And you are a rare good dad to follow up so closely and accompany him for his DSA journey. :imanangel: So, give yourself a pat for being a supportive parent and move on. All the best to your DS PSLE! :rahrah: :xedfingers: To be fair to NJC, it could be a case whereby they have received many rejected COs in last few years and so has reviewed their selection process. After all their IP does not have a long history so they are still rightsizing the DSA COs and fine-tuning the process. The more established IPs had their fair share of teething problems at the start too. Don't forget your son's morale so do encourage him ... Add oil!

it seems that if the students have received an offer in either RI/HCI they will get rejection letter from NJC. THink they might have checked it out with the two schools tt's why take so long to reply.Finally received the NJC rejection letter.

One of my fren's son was rejected by HCI DSA but got NJC CO offer. After PSLE he still based on T-score to switch to HCI. However, for all his classmates who received HCI dsa offer, all got rejection letter from NJC after going thru the entire DSA phrases with NJC. -

That doesn't seem fair to the students, especially those who would prefer NJC to HCI. I also think NJC wouldn't sell themselves short like this. If they really want a student they should just make him an offer and leave it to him to decide if he wants NJC or HCI, rather than reject him because they assume he'll take up HCI rather than NJC.
