Don't worry about "marks" la, 7 years ago the first DSS year, when handing in the application, my son did not have christian faith, no relationship with the school,  was accepted.  Now he is a happy boy in secondary.  

Mrs. Chan spoke well in the very first briefing to that very first DSS intake, 'If it was not the switch to DSS, most of you would not be sitting here."

For sharing, the question asked 7 years ago was,"Can you tell me some differences between an ordinary park and the Ocean Park?"

The school is looking for good observation and logical mind.

Well, eventually most of these 300 can go to good DSS school.  Why? It is because the same batch usually also have 2nd interview offers from the two, three or even four schools, which they have applied.

Then some of these children will be accepted by more than one school in the first round of offer from those schools, while a good majority of the remaining children will be put in waiting lists of the schools.  As no one can take up more than 1 seat in Sept 2010, so most of the 300 boys will be accepted by one of the DSS schools at the end of the day.  This also true for girls.

Even there is no offer in this round of hard exercise, it is not the end of the world.  Last year, a boy had no offer, not even waiting list, from any DSS school, end up in Wah Yan Primary, without catholic faith or connection.

So, there is no need to give unnecessary pressure to oneself and the child, just enjoy the process.

By the way, there are only 3 classes and about 93 places in SPCPS.

Good luck and have good fun!
