Hi,


Would like to share that i have friends’ kids who scored AL10-12 (P5/P6), prelims AL11 was offered CO to RGS via DSA. PSLE, absent.

Another one applied for st nicks, was offered IP when O level was e option chosen by the parents. Scored AL10-11 (P5/6), Prelims AL12. PSLE AL6.

Hope it helps.

Hi


Does any one know if one requires HCL in order to DSA to NYGH/IP schools?

Thanks.

U have to weigh your own chances carefully. Go suss out how successful your coach thinks u will be for DSA at your desired school(s). And then decide whether to chiong for the competitions, or just focus on academic cramming. It is true, some of the exam components (eg prelim Oral or LC) may not have makeup sessions arranged by your school.

My DS had many classmates who gave their all for NSG, both individual and team sports, one team sport even won the gold spot, but only less than 5 team members were successful in their DSA. The rest (medal winners or top 5) were all sorely disappointed. Should they have focussed their efforts on improving their academic grades? Nobody knows whether the time spent could have pulled up by few AL bands or not. Sad to say, contrary to how those well-meaning folks who console u that going in by PSLE score is better, no CO/WL dont be sad, etc…i can tell u so many cases couldnt go in by PSLE score.[/quote]

Hi,

Agreed with Zac's mom. U got to weigh your chances carefully and how are you gg to beautify their DSA's portfolio.

For NSG 2022, my girl's sch team won 3rd placing in their zone.

U12 selection, 6 of them got thru.

6 of them applied for DSA, 5 of them received CO or had their WL converted.

Some popular schs will only consider kids with such portfolio. But even with such portfolio, there is no guarantee that you will get in too. Other than the selection trial, i think e interview plays an important part where they will detemine if the kids suit the school environment not.

Hope it helps.

Hmm.....is your DSA netball? I wonder if this has got to do with @Tick16 giving up SCGS CO which allows your WL converted to CO :idea:

Hi,

I know every school will have their list of WL submitted to MOE, rgdless of domains/IP/O. They shared the same listing with their unique ranking.

Hi all,


SCGS WL converted to CO.

Robotics DSA usually requires competition awards & trial, on top of interview.

DD2 participated in FLL (2021) and NRC(2022) but she did not manage to get any award. Does that means her chance of getting CO is very low?

Hi


Can anyone share what are your kids’ portfolio like for Robotics?

My DD2 is at P4 now. She is strong in Maths and Science.

Am thinking if she should DSA robotics or Maths.

Does one need to achieve outstanding results in the olympia Maths in order to get shortlisted?

Does the child need to go thru interview if we DSA Maths?

Thanks all for your kind inputs.

Also have similar question - whether anybody got CO from IP schools via Math/Science with overall AL around 12. My DS has Gold in NMOS and SPSO, HD in RIPMWC but Top 20 in none and getting about 70+ in languages. Should we be even expecting a shortlist for IP.

Hi,

for IP prog, i was told that the kid must be strong in their languages.

Hope it helps.

Hi,


we received WL for both MGS and SCGS, O Level.

May i know if my child requires to achieve AL8 or better (based on COP 2021) in order to enter their express stream (Subj to availability).

OR

So long she achieves within AL20, her WL will be converted to CO (If there are vacancies).
