      i have a cousin in rgs. she used to be in rgs, she’s in uni now. she was from a chinese speaking family but since she entered rgs she didn’t want to speak chinese, when my aunt asked her why, she said it was embarrassing to speak chinese there. until she came to uni and there are people from different backgrounds, only then did she start to converse in chinese again. i was shocked when i heard this. 😮

            hi all


            i've submitted the S1 form.........1st choice : DHS 2 nd choice : NYGH
            these few days, while i was trying to convince myself to put DHS as 1st choice, on the other hand, my gal was trying to please me (i know she's trying to please me) by saying, \" if u want NYGH, then NYGH lorr......\"
            in the end, i go with her heart, by saying, \"Confirmed! DHS as 1 st choice\", immediately i saw the gleam in her eyes.........
            i hope to see the continunity gleams in the eyes down the 6 yrs......... 😄

              hi nothing2do
              no harm trying, just like what hugehugesmileyface said, u can try to appeal if u're unsuccessful.

              but just to let u know........
              when i was at the open hse, the principal ever said that the COP for DHS is always ard 259 /260 for all these yrs, if below that , don't waste yr choice....
              but then again, it all depends on the overall cohort of this yr, that's y i shd say, no harm trying if 1-2 points off the COP.

                you have a good gal! But like what you said earlier, if your gal has already set her heart for DHS, why do you want to insist NYGS for her?

                I'm sure she will enjoy her time there. You should be happy that your gal can go to a school of HER choice for studies. Quite a no of students cannot get into their choice school... 😢

                  thks tree nymph, yes i’m all the while happy for her choice…as both choices are fine with me.


                  before the results were released, i told her, so long above 260, i am happy. (as this was what she aim for in oder to go to DHS)

                  yes, u’re rite, i could understand how the kids feel when they cannot go to their dream schools. saw some of her classmates cried on the results day.
                  frankly, as for this yr, i see most students failed to perform within their expectations by talking to some parents.

                    In fact, I know a Ms Lee from NYGS commenting that how come their (NYGS) results are not able to beat DHS's. :oops:
                    tree nymph, could be pl elaborate on the above sentence........ (who is ms lee, a teacher or a student?? u mean their academic results or what)

                        Hi Augmum,

                        Is your dd from RGPS?
                        hi Dharma
                        no, my gal is not fr rgps. she is fr a all girls' sch. (why.....???u mean rgps girls performed below expectations for this yr)
                        prob, becos they are girls, they cried more easily as compared to boys when they saw their t-score not meeting the COP of their dream schools.

                        oh......btw, dharma, what are the choices of yr gal's school?? ( i remembered we did chat b4 the results were released)
