The DSA school preference is due 25 Oct - 29 Oct (by 3 PM). Last year most of the open houses were the weekend after school ended or the subsequent weekend (equivalent to 20 Nov or 27 Nov this year).

CCy is a sap school? More into Chinese?
Which sch does your dd prefer?
And most of her friends are likely to go?
You meant Chung Cheng High Main (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_A ... gh_Schools)
My DD received CO for NYGH which was a surprise to us really. Yes ! yes! we are definitely ecstatically happy about the offer but on the other hand we are worried about how academically challenging NYGH is. You see, DD is not great in her MT and barely surviving HMT (fail/pass type). Can anyone shed light on how NYGH MT program is like? Would they dedicate time and effort to those poorer in the language or would they zoom away as most kids there I assume are all very good in their MT. Has any parent's DD gone to NYGH with poor MT but manage to survive and even thrive in the language? We have heard that NYGH is a caring school with caring teachers and won't leave students behind but then again we are worried and don't want to put her in an environment that is so challenging and set her up for failure. DD is conscientious, hardworking and independent but just not good at MT and somehow not interested in it. Thanks everyone and good luck for the upcoming PSLE! Only 2 weeks away! 
1) Definitely Crescent Girls. While I do not have specific numbers of the o level results of both schools, I am quite sure CGS gives better results than CC Yishun.Marcus_Mummy wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 8:03 amHi everyone, done advices or contents needed.
My daughter was offered DSA based on her performance art both to crescent girls and ChungCheng Yishun. My daughter do not know that she was offered by both schools as we have a pact that she got to know it after PSLE exam. I would be glad to have some comments or advice from anyone of you out there about Crescent Girls and Chung Cheng yishun.
1) Chung Cheng is affilated to NYJC while no affiliation for Crescent girls. This matters only she choose to continue to JC rather than polytechnic after O level. This is something we are not sure now.
2) although I stay in Yishun, distance is far
. But this is not a concern for me. What matter most is that my gal can learn to be a responsible girl who can take charge of her studies in secondary which I see it in both my elder sons.
3) personally I prefer girls school and express only school, so less BGR and discipline issue.
Anyone can give me more insight of Both schools? Any comments are welcome.
Or ask seniors who went to CC Yishun how many make use of their affiliation points, since you stay at Yishun, assuming the pri sch is in Yishun, there should be seniors who go to CC Yishun.
Hi, do you know which domain your friend child was applying for?
My dd was offered CO by Crescent and TKGS back then - the only 2 schools she decided to DSA for under performing arts. She is now in uni year 2. Crescent has been one of the most rewarding journey for her. It trained her in terms of future tech skills as they were into using technology and slate for learning. I recall she was conversant with powerpoint, video makings, etc... when she was in JC.MerlionInGermany wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 10:45 am1) Definitely Crescent Girls.

One can only use max 4 bonus points (unless going to CLEP, then you can use 6). So if going by majority of how people use the bonus points, it would be through cca and hmt. This means at CC Yishun, if you have cca, hmt, and affiliation to use, you can anyway use only 2 of them. Of course, we dont know if you will have cca and hmt, so maybe that is why some may think having the 2 points from affiliation is good to have. Well that’s not wrong, but coming from CC Yishun, erm…why not ask at NYJC, how many actually come from CC Yishun?
2) and 3) point to Crescent over CCYishun.
The comparison up there is between cc YISHUN and Crescent though…MMM wrote: ↑Tue Sep 14, 2021 10:56 amMy dd was offered CO by Crescent and TKGS back then - the only 2 schools she decided to DSA for under performing arts.

In addition, while she entered CGS with 23X cop back then, she did well for O levels and eventually choose to go to VJC (though she qualified for RJC/ HC) which she had a perfect score for A levels thus earning her the scholarship offers. I always felt that CGS value add in her journey. As she has CCA and HCL, the affiliation doesn't really matter in this case as it's a max of 4 bonus point.
I recall alot of her pri mates went to CCHM. They eventually end up in TJC iso NYJC.
