      (1) For those who get to interview, half the battle won. The school probably want to see you in person to see how you present, see how confident if you are ready for their school & interview performance will determine if the school wants you or not. At this stage, if you are not call for HDP, that means you no need to be tested on academic domain. Probably the school have confidence in your school results or credentials that you submitted during the application. Then, you just have to wait if you will be further notify or not. Just pray hard get CO after this stage.
      (2) For those who have interviewed before, and was asked to attend the domain test again, chances are the school probably have doubt in your standard, may be half-convince, hence the test will reaffirm their confirmation if the students' standard are able to be on paw with their school's standard. If the students make it through in their test, chances are high for the good news too.
      (3) For those who just called up for HDP to take domain test - also 50-50% chances. This test will filter away those weaker ones & students who did exceptionally exceptionally well - will get noticed by the school & call up for interview. Those who stand-up from others will get further notify if the school is keen to speak with your child.

      The above is my guess only...don't shoot me huh! Actually this DSA is also like speculation game, making parents guess here & there.! πŸ˜‚


      How accurate is this? πŸ˜‰ and what made you derive these guess?

      I also thought this is how they select....

                    I hope it's latest by this week as well. Seems like the RI DSA process this year is slightly different from last year. From last year's forum, I read the interview is held before the HDP. But it's the reverse for this year. Wondering if there's anyone who skips the HDP and goes direct for interview? :scratchhead:

                        I guess no. I suppose all were called for HDP. (Reason for my guess) My DS spoke to one GEPper during the HDP.
