      I think what NUSH does is most convenient for kids and parents.

      They fixed the date for the test right from the beginning 25/6/11 this year.
      And they have multiple test centres on that day, including primary schools like Nan Hua, Henry Park, St Hilda etc and their own campus.
      Just do everything online, including payment for the test.
      No need to post any form or go down to the office personally.

      The most well runned DSA programme among all the schools that we have checked out so far.

        krtc I do not agree with your view on DSA and PSLE.

        PSLE is after all a placement exam for secondary school.
        As long as the student get the school of his choice it really does not matter that he did not do as well as expected in the PSLE.

            Mwahahaha XD:


            I heard dhs is 85% for general, 80% for performing art and 75% for sports (non gep) and gep student is all -10%.
            Is that right only 10%? Not 100%? was told all gepers who apply to dhs dsa does not require to sit for any interview nor test. Then how they select?

              Hi, is 75%, 70% and 65% respectively for gep students. Not sure about this interview as they stated \"Interview, when school deems necessary\".

GEP students apply under GEP domain so all the categories for performing arts/sports etc wouldn't apply to them.

                  Also the most expensive. It was >$100 previously. Not sure about now.

                      The first round DSA Testing same as most IP school -> $50. If you made it to the 2nd round DSA Camp, need to pay $90 to attend the assessment.
