If she has no science related awards, does she has other non related awards or leadership roles?[/quote]

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:

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

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

Seems like it’s harder to get in by DSA than by PSLE lol

I totally agree! Haha... My girl prefers NYGH. She did went for the selection tests on 9 July in NYGH for Math and Science so now we wait for 28 July for NYGH to notify if there is any interviews. But most likely, i think she has to use her results to get into NYGH. They just have to continue to work for it.

Kind of don’t really want to receive results, especially rejected / unsuccessful results.. While waiting is like still possible to receive positive results.. 🤣🤣🤣

Actually for me I rather the rejection letter come early than the uncertainty of waiting. Then at least we can move on and 💯 focus on PSLE. It’s abit distracting, as much as I try to forget about it.

Good luck on NYGH application ! Given your girl never do any Olympiad competition, how she find both the science and math tests in NYGH?

And this is the \"criterial\" (I think..) for final decision on CO/WL/Rejection

NUS High School considers various qualities and attributes and does not focus on students' past achievements alone. The selection tests, camp and interview assess the understanding and application of mathematics and science that have been taught in schools. There will also be general knowledge questions to assess how widely read students are in the fields of mathematics and the sciences. We also look for qualities such as problem solving abilities, passion and motivation, independence, creativity and communication abilities.

Hope this help!
