CIS impossible to get in?

Is CIS a very good school? How about compare with SIS? Some comments said most of the CIS students were from the very rich family.  Just want to know why it is so popular?

Thanks and will do. Your three kids getting in not because of luck but their ability and quality. As far as I know, SIS accepts students based on their interview performance. And, it's hard to get in for locals as places are very limited.

Yes, there are always uncertainties and variables, especially for a young kid's interview. As a mother, what I could do is to get him well prepared, such as chose a bilingual kinder, pay attention to his PTH and Eng development, develop his 'common sense', etc. then whether he could perform well over the interview, i could only leave for himself. Still a long way for me as my son is now 11+ months.
