[quote=puffermash post_id=1924325 time=1564480410 user_id=81153]I screen shot php’s post and whatsapp’ed my friend but she still thinks hers is a rejection group because the interviewers seemed perfunctory ... i told her unlikely they call you to interview to reject you. Can just reject without interview.

If your friend’s dd DSAed via CCA/Sports :-

Individual achievement - Top 3 at national level - CO almost in hand already ...
From SAP school - plus points
Good in Chinese - plus points

BUT P5/P6 results must not be too bad ...

Whether or not from nyps is not important ...

I think so ... lol ... been through that 4 years ago ...

She was calligraphy. Very accomplished but no competition taken part in to date. Yes, from SAP school, HCL merit level. Results ok high 80s. What do you think?[/quote]She DSAed via calligraphy?

What do you mean \"Very accomplished but no competition taken part in to date. \"?
Are you very sure NYGH called her up for interview knowing that she didn't take part in competition before?
Last year NO offer of CO for calligraphy ... Used to be only 1 spot for this CCA ...

I can’t say the same for academic domain, but for CCA n sports, during the trial, there was brief interview with the teacher in charge and the coach/trainer/etc ... the teacher in charge would submit those names who they intended to offer the CO to the DSA panel .... and the panel would them up for final interview....

Gut feeling: observation during interview day at NYGH
CCA & sports --> 2 sheets of papers with names, each sheet of paper around 33-35 names
Academics --> many sheets of papers (5-8 estimated from the thickness of stack, not sure), each sheet of paper 23-25 names
You may do your math but I think it is all about luck.

Good luck everyone!

Those students under CCA and sports who were called up for interview are VERY VERY likely to be offered CO ... unless she messed up the interview (very unlikely becos simple questions to answer) or the panel doubt her ability in handling the IP programme ...

May I know what is the min reqt to do 4 H2 subjects in HCI? is it MSG 2.5?


Thanks …

Dsa interviews timings are very tight for the school. If any particular student tries to dominate the session with own sharing, won't it be unfair to the others? I don't think interviewers will allow this unless they happened to ask related question. Plus I think not allowed to bring anything into the interview room unless they informed beforehand.

A bit paiseh to say this now, but that’s exactly what my boy did for 2 schools’ DSA last time - and he had 2 positive outcomes! I reasoned then that the main purpose of DSA interview is to show passion in that domain.

He had the good fortune to undergo a special program to do a research topic (to prove some cheem Math theorem) last time. So I printed out the research outcome and prep him for DSA.

Told him the cue is this - anyone asks about your interest in Math or anything similar, just flash the slide and share your findings. No, he didn’t dominate the interview as it took just a min to share the research topic, investigation method, and finally the outcome. If teachers want to know more, they can ask.

I tot that if there’s only 1 vacancy left and if he’s up against an equally strong candidate, then being able to present something concrete would create a more lasting impression on the interviewers. They say a picture (or an item in this case) is worth a thousand words right?

But yes, I get what you mean. Just don’t bring that nuclear reactor your scientist dad did for his work for the interview as the teachers will definitely know it’s not done by you.

Bro, u very selfish lei...never teach my dd last time ... lol ...

Justice Bao:

Hi! I am puzzled with the rude and defending mode in ”Ganjiongspider”

I am a Sec 4 parent.
The P did a very sincere apology and “damage control” job. My heart goes to her and thumb up for her.
But it does not take away the fact that a teacher unbuttoning the girls in location ( unknown), motive ( unknown) and where is form teacher?
Were the parents exactly brief where, what and how it happened?
So by asking questions, I don’t think Chic Lil is wrong.
In addition, I agree with Chic Lil that we need to fact find rather than sweep in under the carpet’s approach. By the way, I am an old girl, I love NYGH too.

What unknown location and unknown motive r u talking about? Sweep under the carpet, how?
Where was the FT? The FT is a male teacher ...So u expect the male FT to be around when the school conducts undergarment check?

My dd is from the affected Sec 4 class ... We parents knew exactly what happened on that day ...
The teacher already apologised to the whole school regarding the incident ...
The P also updated all parents and apologised to parents via email ...
And the P again updated and apologised to all parents during Friday PTM ...

So r u really a Sec 4 NYGH parent? I don't think your questions were appropriate ...
