DGJS 2nd interview result

ysnmama

如果真的看地區住宅收生. 現在單憑地區是不能反映. 新界區如沙田,大埔,元朗同樣很多千萬豪宅. 西貢也有獨立屋. 若以樓價, 荃灣區同樣也有價錢不菲的千萬豪宅(御凱). 合不合理見仁見智. 但它們分分鐘比港島區一般樓價還要貴. 何文田區也有平價樓. 九龍塘區也同樣有平價樓. 就算有學生來自新界, 沙田, 將軍澳也不一定代表是一般家庭.  所以現在很難再以地區去分類.

If that is the case, you should move on.  What's the point of dwelling on why she was not accepted?  It's meaningless.

I don't think this is true.  There might be other considerations for admission besides interview performance, but proximity is not one of them.  Otherwise how do you explain the fact that there are girls who live on HK side or even close to SPCCPS, but still be accepted by DGJS?

SPCCPS also requires address proof, but their students are from all over HK, including Sai Kung, Tseung Kwan O, Shatin...

Something reminds me of one of my old classmates.  During the final year in University, she got offers from all the top enterprises except one, so she called the company and asked the HR dept for explanation. At the end she got the offer as well, but she never intended to join that corporation. She simply could not bear losing one of her "trophies", though it was meaningless.

It might be true that DGJS does prefer Kowloon/NT students because of less commuting time.

I think many parents in this forum, including those who are preparing for next year's admission, are very curious to know more about DGJS' admission criteria. This is nothing to do with which school my daughter will go eventually. Through sharing of information, I hope all of us will gain better insights.

It might be true that DGJS does prefer Kowloon/NT students because of less commuting time.

For my kid, after the 2nd interview I had already made up my mind to go with SPCC. Their headmistress is so passionate about education and the school. No other principal as I know can spend almost half an hour to talk with 200 parents!

I don't think Mrs. Dai of DGJS has the "magic" to pick up the right kids at the first sight. There are certainly many factors they would consider.

The reason is clear, Ms. Hui's mentality is very 'DGS', so why would her girl failed the admission!

pardon me, why do you need to prove that your daughter is invincible? she will only attend 1 school in the end...

If location is not DGJS' primary concern, why did they have to verify applicants' address two times,i.e., at the time of application, and prior to the 2nd interview.

The process inevitably imposes extra work on their administrative staff. There should be a purpose behind the verification process.

address is not the factor, Mrs Dai have her own preference, maybe the first sight of the  girl.....so it is really the own feeling from Mrs Dai.  don't feel bad for the result.

Hope your girl will enjoy the new school life at SPCC

DGJS is the only school that has not accepted by daugther. I just wanted to look deeper into the reasons behind, and possbile factors other than interview performance.

Since I live in the HK Island, regardless of the outcome, I'd still go for SPCC.

I know a girl who lives quite close to SPCCPS is accepted by both SPCCPS and DGJS this year.

Understand that your girl is accepted by SPCCPS already from another post.  So do you actually want to send your girl to DGJS if accepted, or do you just want to prove the ability of your girl? At the end, your girl can only go to one school.  And SPCCPS is a very good school indeed.

Not sure whether DGJS will do this or not because for such a school, they may not bother this so much. In my case, I lived in N.T. but got offers from both DGJS and SPCC.

My daughter is studying is St Cat. and got the offer.
We are no relationship with DGJS and no religious, not a rich and just can be said we are middle class. It is really unexpected that we can got it.  
One I can said, the interview is fair in DGJS.

I also wonder whether any 'small girls' who were born in Nov/Dec 2004 that got accepted?

And any P1 repeat student (born in Sep-Dec 2003) got accepted?

May I also ask whether the successful applicants take any interview class? Do u think they are useful?

Thank you.

Also got a reject letter.    Good thing is that we know exactly which school to send my girl.  Very often, making choice is difficult.

Anyone on waiting list ?

I am interested to learn if any people living in the HK Island have been accepted by both SPCC and DGJS? Since SPCC published all admitted students' ID numbers online, I suspected that DGJS may have taken into account the location factor and reject most students admitted by SPCC residing in the HK Island. Normally, students living in the HK Island will opt for SPCC, while those in the Kowloon side will choose DGJS.

My daughter got a reject letter.
