        Hi All


        How come no one would be dare to share what questions will ask the students in DSA interview part? Is it confidential or ......? :roll:
        From What I understand ....
        Interview Q and Method may be different for different sch ....

        Some Do interview Singly, but I think Majority of Sch R doing in Groups nowadays ....

        RGS P shared with us during Tea Session that the sch conduct interviews in Groups, and the Students May be Asked to choose from a range of toys, and Explain their Reasons for their Choice ....

        My Gal told me during the DSA talk in her sch, their P mentioned some interview Q like If U can Choose bet a Pen and A Pencil, Which One U Rather Be and Why ....

        So We would expect some unexpected Q, to test the kids response and their reasoning power, and how well they can handle and Articulate themselves ....
        😉 😉

                Hi Funx3

                I think this is very different comparing to their age at K2 and now. We made the decision on behalf of them when choosing the primary school and now they are big enough to observe, discuss and question more on the Secondary School that they wish to go.

                Let's hope the dream come true lah. :celebrate:

                    Me think you have got your priorities right. Ideally, a pupil seeking admission thru dsa sholud have standards no more than 15 points away from cop.

                    No point attending famed schools if kids are struggling to keep up. Not forgetting all students have to sit for A-level exam.

                    What happen if a successful dsa applicant is actually more inclined for applied education or beter suited pre-U education thru O-level route? Wasted opportunity and time wasting just for a top school place.

                    Personally if a kid is unable to produce a T-score(mid-term) of around 245 and above, top schools are unsuitable for him/her.

                        Thank you. Me just an ordinary person passing on my experience, nothing major to contribute lah. Hope that your girl shall eventually find a suitable good school to develop her potential.

                        Those unsure best stick to O-level route, its safer. Alternatively, attend A-level results release day in one of the jcs and you will understand what i meant.
