      Hi,
      I am new here and I am going to DSA into Hwa Chong using either Math or Science. What are the chances of me getting in? I have these achievments during P5:
      High Distinction in RIPMWC
      Bronze in SMOPS
      Silver in Mathlympics
      Bronze in NMOS
      Silver in SASMO
      Silver in SPSO

      I also had gotten SASMO Gold in P3 and P4
      Thank you if anyone can reply!
      If I remembered correct!ly,must have at least silver for SMOPS. I suggest you try for Science DSA since you did well for SPSO.And less competitive than Maths.

        I am participating in SMOPS, as well as RIPMWC again this year so I will try and do better for it! If I do not get silver, I will heed your advice. I will see whether there are other answers.Thank you for your reply!

            Could it be due to the length? It looked baggy on DS when he first tried it on. I hemmed up the length and it looked better. Still slightly baggy but acceptable.

              If you want to tailor made Hwa Chong pants, it is at beauty world if I am not wrong. The phone number is 64665697

              Please call them to check the operating hour and address. I remembered they open from 12pm-8pm.

                  I did send my boy's pants for tapering+shortening. There are a lot of alternation services around. One convenient one is a shop in Bukit Timah shopping centre area. I found a home-based service as it's more affordable since I've a few to do.

                    Thanks xjysg! One silly question - even after you had tapered the pants, they are still pleated right? as in, we can't change them to flat front pants right? 😛

                    ok I got to bring the pants to the alteration tailor. Son looks like he's swimming in some women's wide leg pants at the moment lol!

                      hi all,

                      Hope can help me as I am quite confused and blurred.
                      May I ask is the history subject will be tested at the end of the year or in the mid year?
                      When come to sec 2, is the content of sec 1 for the all subjects ( science, history and Geo) will be retested again?



                      Thanks first.

                      Thanks.

                        For Sec 1, history will be taught in first half of the year and tested in mid year. Second half of the year will be for Geog. The subject order will be reversed in Sec 2. The Sec 1 content will not be retested specifically in Sec 2 but will be the foundation for the Sec 2 curriculum. Hope this helps.
