Re: MCS or DGJS- a parent's dilemma
1. That leaves 70-odd places for non-CCKG students.
2. Actually, as a matter of curiosity, do CCKG parents form their own small circles, regarding entrants from other primary schools as "outsiders"?

Hi coolobserver,
I am a current CCKG parent.
As far as I know, more than 30 out of 42 CCKG girls are accepted by DGJS in the first round for 05-06 year.

I just cannot resist re-posting what I posted somewhere else.
"Users of this website tend to be of the "Kowloon Tong" herd and it is not surprising that people they know tend to be from Kowloon Tong schools.
Myths are very often self perpetuating. When I refer to the "Kowloon Tong herd" I mean those parents who go to those few private-run kindergartens (pkus CCKG) and who make "getting into DGJS" their lifelong mission (SC for K1, CCKG for K2-K3, etc). It is true that some girls from these KGs get into DGJS, and because their parents tend to be more aggressive than those from other KGs (and more prepared to talk on-line: hence the myth created in this forum), they are the ones who will (for example) start study groups in P1, gather other parents' tel no., compile (and compare) data on kids' performance, etc. In a way the good name of DGJS is slightly tarnished by parents like these - there are lots of mellow, down-to-earth parents from all over HK (and all kinds of KG).
As far as I know, there is not one particular school that can claim a particular stronghold in terms of DGJS admission (CCKG apart - and even for CCKG the rate is not, apparently, as staggering as a lot of people are led to believe). You also have to consider matters such as the number of applicants from a particular school. Saying that "x number of kids from a particular school got into DGJS" is rather meaningless, because if if that school is a "chain store" type school with hundreds of students, then "x" may be a comparatively small number.
My point is that I know from personal knowledge that there are a lot of good KGs around (and those know will know, and I do not want to advertise for any particular one) which produce lots of students who are well liked by lots of prestigious primary schools. Try to widen your horizon, parents, and not get stuck with the Kowloon Tong herd. "
Please have some dignity. Believe in the ability of your kids and stop asking "which school can give me a better chance of getting admitted to DGJS" (you will end up getting the same names, because users of this site are mainly parents from those few, or friends of parents from those few). We as adults know that in real life nothing is as simple as "you go to this school = admission to DGJS" (just like "what stock should I buy if I want to make money?"). Only the most simple minded person will think in this way and I feel absolutely disgusted that parents here (who are supposed to be sophisticated enough and have sufficient analytical power) still think in this simplistic way.
