      Congrats! Is she going to accept the offer?

      Not sure, wait till get results from RGS first.[/quote]Curious, do you and DD prefer RGS or NY? NY COP for last year was higher but I know that many still prefer RGS (My DD was one of them).

          If I were to have this happy problem, I'll ask myself which school I will choose if both make an offer. If the choice is not a clear RI, then I will go for NUSH camp since missing the camp means giving up the chance of getting into NUSH totally (I assume so since I am under the impression that NUSH takes in 100% of students through DSA) while there is always a chance to get into RI through PSLE. However, if the choice is clearly RI, then you have your answer. πŸ˜„

            Actually, the chances of getting into NUSH after PSLE is easier than getting into RI after PSLE. The cut-off for NUSH is lower than RI using PSLE results. Last year's cut off for RI was 259. For NUSH, it was 256 (but must score A* in Math and Science.)

I would consider the culture and academic programmes of each school and what would be best for my child to make my decision. Cut off points really don't matter that much.

              Which school did your dd choose in the end, Mummyjoyce?

                  Almighty , congratulation. At least u have the dilemna that some of us wished. I got the invite for NUS High for round 2 but not RI (dream sch) and was hoping that maybe they sent to wrong email or the mail did not reach me.
