But for 2011batch, Smops platinum also get reject from nush, lor. But interestingly RI offer . :)[/quote]For 2009 batch, SMOPS platinum was rejected by RGS and accepted by NUSH.
In 2008 batch (current sec 3), heard SMOPS platinum were given tea session to join NUSH. They might or might still have to go thru the camp which could be free for them.Zann:

Depends on the colour of the award and which school you are aiming. If SMOPS platinum/gold, better chance at NYGH. If silver and bronze, not much advantage. If you are aiming for RGS, all girls must go through GAT then go through Math domain selection tests. No guarantee.
Not sure about NUSH and other schools.

Used to be that SMOPS Platinum would be assured of a place in RI/HCI/NUSH. Then it became an offer by NUSH but rejected by RI. Now not even an offer by NUSH but possibly RI. Guess SMOPS is no longer the golden ticket and you have to get SMOJ.

Haha, vlim, you still sore about receiving the photostat copy VS the real one with red HCI logo? Maybe they read our comments the last time so they decided to use their official letterhead this time.
Other then email, they also mailed out the letter with original letter with red Colour HCI logo ... Not a phtostated one ....MandyMummy:
Just received email from HCI to attend the Hwa Chong DSA Parents Symposium on 22 Oct 2011 (Sat) at the Hwa Chong Institution High School Auditorium.

Parents whose kids applied for NJC DSA, have you received the HAST test report ?
Just like to know is the ranking against the same cohort that took the NJC HAST test ?
Or is it against the general population that took the ACER HAST test ?
