          if not mistaken they normally have more than a thousand applicants
          The worst part is that RI doesn't shortlist from your application, like some schools, eg. DHS. So waste time for some students. And the teachers/instructors' time for being at the trials/auditions.

            Dear All,


            Krtc Marine Parade has just posted up a new post on Direct School Admission (DSA), giving some valuable advice on which school you should choose and what that should be based on. At the same time, emphasizing the great need to focus on your PSLE journey.

            Also, do make use of our Question and Answer service (http://krtc-marineparade.blogspot.com/p/post-your-questions_21.html) where you can ask study-related questions as well as questions about the range of tution and enrichment classes we offer.

            So, check out our blog right now!

            http://krtc-marineparade.blogspot.com/

            Thanks,
            Krtc Marine Parade Branch

              oh is it...so all who submit application will go thru test and interviews? :roll: ....For HCI, they shortlist applicants for interview and test.

                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\".
