NUS High School of Mathematics and Science (Diploma)

Thought of just putting things to perspective ... NUSH cohort size is like 170 vs 800~900 for the other top schools.

Are they still having many DSA applicants?
I remember about 10 yrs back they had a few test centres for their 1st round written test...think estimated about 3k~4k applicants IIRC.

Not sure too...this year I think there's only one centre at NUS.

Another centre at NUS High

[myrick88]

Oh really! So total how many applicants this year?

During the recent open house, the VP says NUSH is giving opportunity for everyone who wants to attempt to DSA into the school. If there is not enough available LTs / Halls within NUS High and NUS, they will also arrange to have the selection tests in the neighboring primary/secondary schools. But don't know whether it did extend to the latter.

Another centre at NUS High

Think howting was referring to the test centre.

There were 2 test centres this year : NUS High premise and 3 halls in NUS. Not sure about the total no of applicants... but Clementi Road was sure very packed last Saturday.

Any idea when the invite to the selection camp will be sent?

Do they send only to the shortlisted candidates?
Will those unsuccessful ones get a "thank you for participating" email?
