For pupils who are interested in applying for direct admission to secondary schools through DSA, please look at the below website. Take note that the information is from last year but it will be a good guide. I will talk more to you all about DSA when the school reopens.

Things to look out for:
1) How the exercise works
2) When can you start to apply
3) Which schools are involved
4) What are the niches and strengths of the schools you are interested in

Oh my! The DSA to RGS is so long. WE have to print a copy of our results and also have to pay $50.00 to apply. We also need to seat for General Ability Test and also have to take music test and shortlisted participants will have half day selection test. Then, we will have to attend interview.
ReplyDeleteYes! They have stringent tests as they want to make sure they have the best stuents in their school. Therefore, you all must be ready and do what is necessary to meet their requirements.
ReplyDeleteToday, we had learnt how to memorize pictures, words, numbers and colours in a fast way so as not to waste time. Who wants to know?
ReplyDeletesure we want to know, any tips
ReplyDeleteWe would like to know! You can tell us briefly now. When the school reopens, you will demonstrate to the class. It will help us!! Looking forward to your sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteokay...
ReplyDelete1)Boost your mental alertness.
Do the Rhythmic breathing exercise.
.Inhale for 5 seconds
.Hold your breath for 5 seconds
.exhale for 5 seconds
.Hold for 5 seconds again.
(practice 3 times a day and avoid doing it before bedtime)
To memorize,
ReplyDelete1)you need to visualize.
2)Linking
3)Sound-Alike
4)Shape Hooks for numbers
5)observing the unique feature of the object(used for memorizing pictures of a person and the name.)
For the (1),example, I show you a word,lion.Visualizing the lion in your head will help you to memorize the word easily.You may also want to create a story(A funny story will help you remember better.)
2)Example you can link a piano to money!That is because you will need to use money to buy a piano!
3)If you need to memorize a word like,Taciturn,you can change it into something lie Taxi turn! the meaning is silent so you can change it to the Taxi turning quietly!Isn't that interesting?
4)For numbers, you can think of it in a different way! For number one, you can use shapes to memorize it! you can think of it as a candle or a straight pencil!
5)James Perry has a bald head, so you can put Jam on his head to make it look shinier! So you will know that the person with a shiny bald head has Jam on his head!So we can be sure that the person is James Perry!
I can't find anything on NYGH's website!!

It is believed that the Chile earthquake may have tipped the Earth's axis, causing the days to be shorter by 1.26 microseconds. It means that the PSLE will draw nearer and nearer.
