      so RGS will send email to notify those who are going for selection tests/interviews and also those they rejected. But for us who didnt receive anything as yet even though I know they already started sending notification for interview? Just keep waiting for the email? My girl applied for Science and we didnt get any email as yet. Understand someone received email notification already for Science. Anyone knows why its like that?
      Yup we are waiting too. A few also received rejection for EL or CL if I’m not wrong? But we didn’t get anything… 🙁

        My girl doesnt have any science olympiad. I didnt fill in anything for external awards, just used her school results. She has consistently scored AL1 for Science since P3 till now. That's all. She wanted to try and apply and hopefully get more exposure in sec sch. 😉
        Ic, science is difficult to score AL1. Your girl is good 👍

        From earlier sharing on RGS DSA VA , it seems academic result is important factor to be considered for selection test. Believe your girl academic result should be good given she is applying for academic domain.

        Maybe what make a difference is the awards?! Guess only

          Would u mind sharing what’s your girl’s Overall AL score for all subjects? I think they take into consideration the overall as well? Thanks.

              She scored AL6 for mid year. AL1 for both Math and Science and AL2 for EL and CL.

                Are you referring to final CO/WL/ interviews or selection camp? For our kids who never show up during camp means game over right?[/quote]
                Yah I am referring to selection camp. For those who never show up, game over as of now but they can still apply through SIE. Good luck to your HCI selection 😉

                  If she has no science related awards, does she has other non related awards or leadership roles?

                    She's a prefect. But other than that, nothing else. I guess that's why she's in the back up list. 🤣

                      Looks like filling up the 10 rows is important criteria to be selected even for selection test :scared:

                        Oh was thinking selection camp entry ticket purely based on first round result as lots of students do not participate in any Olympiad competition.
