      @revils_ling all the best to u too! based on my previous browsing in this forum, i think they do ask general questions like:

      1. do u have any tuition?
      2. what are ur hobbies?

      Not sure if its being asked for NUSH, some interviews will ask what are ur other DSA choices?

        From browsing forums I think ya those are the typical qn? Not sure for NUSH if they will ask science /maths related qn

          Hi,
          Wanna ask regarding RGS CYL DSA. For those who received interview email, are your girls head or vice head prefects?
          Also, are academic results below AL 10 ?

              @kylene from the email It does say to “ascertain your aptitude and passion in Math & Science”. I dont think they will ask math or science questions on the spot for u to solve but maybe some questions along the line to see how interested you are in Math and Science?

                  I came across on Reddit shared by an ex-applicant that he/she was also asked about his/her school results (why he/she didn’t get A* for Science, unlike the rest of the subjects?). This was likely from the 2020 DSA batch or earlier, since the AL scoring system started in 2021.

                        Hi parents, anyone can advise for visual arts audition? School’s email says bring along portfolio on the day of audition;

                        Do the kids:
                        A) bring in their portfolio of artwork (physical originals - but some are not possible to bring as too large), or
                        B) bring along printed copies or
                        C) just bring soft copies will do?

                        Have emailed the school but no reply yet. Wondering what is the usual practice? Any advice greatly appreciated.
