阿仔小學不會同我們講第幾名, 而我只知一定是全級十名內, 如果樂觀D應該是頭三名。 ...

如p5 下學期全級十名內,,p6 上學期下降30名,唔知有冇機會?

DBS是要求我們給小六學生資料表, 聽聞可以憑這些資料CHECK全港排名。講真我只是新手, 其他家長會叻D。

都有D獎, 但不算是特異工能, 有D數學公開獎(但不是最TOP那些, 英文比較好(在校內),  英詩獨誦有多年的個人獎, 而最特別都只是得聯校的傑出學生獎, 彈琴都只是五級(四年前),  現在都無考試了, 所以信心也不大。

今天也收到信了，都是下星期六上午；小兒很開心，因為已有心理準備不獲面試機會。
小兒沒有特異功能，讀老牌屋村小學，也沒有怎樣得過獎，又不是全級頭三名，只是發展較平均。
所以大家也不用太緊張，平常心就好了。

What kinds of students they wanted besides those talented? I believe not all students are talented, I need down to earth advices from parents with kids already enrolled in DBS....

1) academic
2) leadership (not many primary school students demonstrate their outstanding leadership, am I wrong?)
3) music (I don't understand why have to be grade 8 (or this is only a myth not reality) if you really appreciate music, you won't rush for competitions or exams)
5) Maths (it makes sense becase they want students with good logics & with good intellectual competence to handle learning)
6) Language (both Chinese and English or just English will be fine? not understand why English has to come first?)
7) Confident (what is confident? love himself? good self-esteem?)
8) Conduct?? (including???????)
9) They want all the above qualities? or they preferrable "obsessive" with certain kinds of kids to be enrolled in their program?
10) Parents' family, socio-economic background important or not?(do I need famous people to write reference??)
11) Religious background important or not (do I need a famous pastor from SKH to write a letter??)

Traditionally, DBS is renowned for its excellence in academics, music and sports. Students’ mottos like Never Settle for the Less, Strive for the 1st and 2nd is loss etc have already reflected its traditional value.

Its admission policy is also the foremost and earliest in that in Dec every year it has already admitted a number of academics elites from famous primary schools, music elites and sports elites whereas other famous schools like St. Paul Co-edu and Ying Wa have not started interview in Dec.

As far as I know, DBS has admitted at least 20 students from several famous private schools in December not mentioning those sports and music elites from other schools. So the remaining places left for the official 1st round interview on 11 Feb on about 600 candidates are subject to keen competition.

Its orchestra is conducted by students wheras most orchestra members have already possessed diploma qualification. Except for Chinese orchestra, Grade 8 plus some first or second prizes in school music fest seems to be the basic requirement for music route admission. Remember Grade 8 distinction piano and speech would not contribute to its school orchestra and wind band so there are no competitive edge in learning piano and speech for enrolling traditional secondary schools like DGS or DBS.

If your son does not possess the caliber for either the academics, music or sports, DBS may be the wrong match with your son.
