Hmmm me thinks RI still enjoys an edge in terms of reputation and prestige among many parents and is the preferred choice especially for most top non-Chinese kids and their parents.Assuming one has CO from both HCI and RI, which would be the choice?
Not sure about past years, but for 2017 DSA, HCI has imposed a very high standard for Maths & Science domains. Must be gold or platinum winners at Olympiads in order to be even shortlisted for HDP. Thus, there will have many top-calibre Maths/Science students to spur their schoolmates. Additionally, HCI has traditionally been known to strongly promote Chinese culture, language and values, which (in the current China era) is a big plus point. So I guess (just a guess) HCI has an edge over RI in terms of DSA acceptance. -

I was (logically) referring to Chinese-speaking applicants. Agree with you on non-Chinese-speaking DSAers, but they also have an equally strong (if not stronger) choice in the form of ACS. Again, just a view.
