How do you choose? St.Paul Boy or Raimondi

CD

Both schools accepted my son.  I don't know how to choose.  Actually, they are my target schools.
Any suggestion?

St Paul boys. Raimondi primary school is OK. But those who study well in Raimondi primary school will go to St Paul boys' secondary school. I know quite a few examples of this. Do you have other choices beside these two school? DBS is still having the 2 nd interview.

steven819,

My son will attend DBS interview, but I think the chance is less.  I have no expectation on DBS.
At this moment, I'm considering St. Paul boys and Raimondi, because I've got a seat already.  
If I choose one of them, I still have another problem,
as I live in Kwai Chung, both schools are far away from my home.  Do you think is it a problem?
Besides St.Paul Boy and Raimondi, I'm still waiting for the result of SFA and Kowloon Tong Primary School.

CD,

In that case, don't worry. Since your son is accepted by both St Paul Boy and Raimondi, he should be very smart. Be confindent in him, I think he'll do well in DBS interview. Then it solve all your problem. I live in Hong Kong Island and don't know too much about Kowloon side school. But I think DBS is a good choice. Somehow they can make the kids do well both in sports and in academic. By the way, you can still register St Paul boy (presumed that you have already reg. Raimondi last Sat.) and give you more time to think. Also wait for the result tomorrow. Don't worry. This painful game will be over once your dream school has accepted your son. And remember again, your kids has already did very well.

Congratulation to your son has a 2nd interview of DBS.  My son was also accepted by both St Paul Boys and Raimondi school but haven't 2nd interview of DBS.   Raimondi school is a very traditional primary school.  You can search some past discussion about this school.  The comment is not positive.  My son is very active and talkative.  I choose St Paul Boys finally because the comments from my friend is good.  I suggest you pay the reservation fee first and wait for the final outcome of DBS.  As you live in Kwun Chung, primary school in Kowloon side in more comfortable for your son in future.  

For the content of 2nd interview of DBS, you may search some discussions in last year.  The disucssions were very detail and informative.  Good luck to your son.
