Agree, those on waiting list should have a high chance. This school tends not to disclose the admission progress which makes parents quite confused & puzzled. I don't know why it cannot make things more friendly to parents. No worry, places will be released gradually.
In the second interview, just general questions are asked. From my esperience, six (pairs) of parents were assigned in a group. The teacher invited us to share views on why we chose WKF, how you nurture your kids and how you co-operate with school. Very general.

Fully agreed! when I submit my application form , I don't know the interview include the "talent show" for last year, if I know, I'm sure to give up apply this school. However, the application form was submitted and the letter of the interview did not have the "talent show" this year, so, I let my kid to join the interview,(what's a joke on Thursday! just one day on Sat. I think this school did not respect the kids and parents).
Finally, I think if I'm without interest to this school, therefore, I have withdrawal the 2nd interview and let another interest applicant to get the seat.
"Talent Show"........Is that the interview for HK Academy for Performing Arts?

I totally agreed with you.
I also give up the 2nd interview chance few weeks ago and let those parent in need to get the seat.
In fact, my daughter was accepted by a private school before WKF's interview. After interview, my minded was very clear. I confirmed that I ranked that private school much higher than WKF. Even if WKF also accepted my daughter, I would give up the seat. Therefore, no need to attend 2nd interview at all.
I agreed that WKF is a good school, but there are still many good private and DSS school to choose.
Each school has its own "fans"
If you really interested in WKF....wait....
After the "lucky draw", many many parents give up the seats.
Ha ! Ha !
Talent Show...... Our girls just like taking part in Miss Hong Kong ^__^
Never mind, if you have time, take a look at DBSPD and DGJS's thread, the arrangement described by parents are chaotic too. However, surely most parents can't deny that if their child is accepted by these 'prestige schools', they can't resist the offer. WKF is just an ordinary school and if our kid is happy, so are we : D.
We are all so stressed and eager to find a 'good' school for our kids. Unfortunately, we are not able to predict what is the best for them because we are not gypsy with glass ball ;D.
Good luck in finding a 'right' school if not a 'perfect' school for our beloved child.
I think the reason they do not send you any rejection letter because they do not know how many parents will reject their offer and the kids who are supposed to be rejected will ultimately get a chance for second interview.
school invite so many parents 2nd interview, I cannot believe they can accept all the candidates.
So waiting list may be the result of many of us.
Don't give up.
