It is sad that there are so few places left for sports and performing arts. Some are taken up by students with sports DSA. Indeed true that the CCA chooses the students and not the students choose the CCA.

yes , CCA chooses the students. My daughter was keen on dance with dance background since primary school , but did not get through the second round of audition and cannot join. she was very dissappointed.
Should't school give all students a chance during sec 1 selection ?

However all the popular CCAs have limited places especially performing arts and sports

My Nephew who is in Sec 3 of Maris Stella High says that MSHS is a very good school. I recommend that people whose Son are more interested in computer than to studying should post their son there. My nephew really started doing his work because of the MacBook!

My son have just entered MSHS this year… He seems quite happy there! Maris Stella is doing quite well Academically right?

Is these type of cases very common? Its making me quite frightened for my Kid ._.

My Niece got 9 points for her L1R5 (after deduction of CCA). Which JC would be good for her? Her school have an affiliation to Anglo Chinese JC which gives her an additional 2 points off. Is ASJC a good choice?

I have just joined this forum and read this thread... So i understand that to get minus 2 points off for 'o' levels my son has to get at least 20 points through the LEAPS system. But is there a preferred CCA my son should join to ensure he gets the points from participation & achievement (Representation, Accomplishment, Attainment)? Or he can join any CCA he wants to? I am asking this because i am rather doubtful about his CCA choice, He is is Maris Stella High and he wants to join the English Literature Society(ELS) ELS does debate & scrabble (YES THE BOARD GAME xD), If lets say he wins the scrabble competition will he gets the Achievement points?


Thanks a lot
