What is the chance of getting an offer from RC or SJS for waitlist offer?

可愛小肥媽

I've got the offer from CAIS.
I asked RC but they said that can't tell the waitlist number over the phone but for sure not the top 10

What's your contingency plan?  
You may ask the college how many offers you have to waiting for?

RC confirmed my acceptance by email this morning.  They said they will send out the document and I need to pay the deposit by 2.28.2011.

May I know the reasons for choosing DC, instead of the other two schools, in your case?  We are considering DC but there are so little discussions on this school.  Thanks.

Received an offer call from SJS yesterday.   WIll choose between DC and SJS...

For me,though I don't know much about DC, I am fond of its study environment and its teaching approach.  I think my girl will have happy time there and can boarden her horizon.  T

Congratulations to YOU all !

Just would like to know whether all of YOU are CAt 1 and any cat 2?? I am struggling whether to apply for ESF kinder as my kid is cat 2 only.

可愛小肥媽

My son is a cat 2 boy who is studying at ESF kinder.  As far as I know, the chance of getting an interview for non ESF kinder is rare.

Thanks! Then I can seriously consider to apply ESF kinder this year. Did your kid join any PN before ESF kinder?
Though I know as Cat 2 chance to enter ESF kinder is not high too. But just try first! :)

如 on SJS waitlist, 是不是both Cat 1 & Cat 2 kids are on the same waitlist (or they are totally separate?) and the priority of finally getting an offer is purely depending on the "scrores" that the kids were given during the interivew screening ? 今年競爭是否很激烈 (我絕對相信是!), 但好似很多SJS waitlists were recently given a place - 是否真的很多家長最後放棄SJS offer而騰出學位for waitlist - 原因是什麼?

如比較SJS and RC, believe parents (who have got double offer) will naturally choose SJS, then why parents finally chose to give up the place ??

If you are given double offer from both SJS and RC, what would you choose, what are the reasons and what do you consider in terms of strong academic background, stong communcation/interpersonal skills, more out-of-the-box thinking, standard of mandarin and maths, etc ? Which school has more advantages in these aforesaid areas ?? Heard that kids from RC do not generally speak fluent English as compared to those in kids - is it because RC allows kids to freely speak English during their play time in the campus whereas it is strictly NOT allowed in SJS campus ?

They are on the same waitlist, but the place on the waitlist is sorted according to Category and priority also after the interview.  

Like in any IS, teachers respect and nurture a child's first language, whether it is cantonese, chinese or not.  They don't restrict what children speak out of the classroom.  Of course, main communication language would be english in the classroom and with teachers.

已我所知SJS是很多家長的心儀國際學校, 同時每年競爭是十方激烈 ("CAT 2 kids & non-ESF kinder" on waiting even though they were successfull at the interview would not be given an offer), 但好似今年很多SJS waitlists (including CAT 2 & non-ESF kinder) were recently given a place - 是否真的很多家長最後放棄SJS offer而騰出學位for waitlist - 原因是什麼?

Which SIS and RCHK will give more strong academic result plus good communication & interpersonal skills ? If you have a choice, which SIS or RCHK you will choose and what is the main reason ?
