SSCPS Second Interview

ABTreasures

Oh, my typo mistake, it shoudl read "SSCPS offer the 2nd interview chance for ALL...", not SPCC.

Of course, we cannot deny the chidlren at 'XX ' are very smart and which is worth to give the 2nd interview chance.

My kid attended the 1st interview on 10/10 too, and we still haven't rec'd any feedback too.

"SPCC offer the 2nd interview chance for ALL "XX Hill" kids" - really, especially for Group 4 candidates (my son is one of them)?  I have heard such a rumour but I don't have a verifiable source to confirm it.

If what you are saying is true, it will seem that SSCPS is positioning itself behind SPCC and DB/GS, so that they want to reduce the number of drop-outs by delaying the announcement of admission results until SPCC and DB/GS finish giving out offers.  (Otherwise, it will be the other way round, i.e. the drop-outs will be from SPCC or DB/GS even if they make offers earlier.)

Using the demand-supply theory, it seems that more parents favour the traditional schools to more innovative schools such as SSCPS.

I think it is because there may have a lot of people will choose DBS/DGS/SPCC and drop SSCPS offer in late Nov / mid Dec.  I know SPCC offer the 2nd interview chance for ALL "XX Hill" kids (even thoug ...

I still do not receive any letter, my daughter's interview on 10/10. Why?

Agreed. I think SSCPS is a good school and the Principal Ms. Wai is very sincere too.

我知道SSCPS校長會好認真選擇2nd interview名單，校務處話一有時間就安排面試，每次不一定見太多人。

有些SSCPS家長話每個2nd interview都好誠懇，旨在給雙方機會彼此了解。我比較喜歡這種形式，至少學校和申請人都可深入一些，有利大家考慮這個選校選生的决定。

校長Agnes WAI在briefing都強調會盡量review申請人的portfolio和school report card，希望可以更全面評估小朋友的能力。如果她真的做得到，我就更加欣賞SSCPS了。

我同意申請SSCPS時實在要有超級耐性，絕對巧驗信心，我都希望SSCPS可以改善這個情況。坦白說，這種面試形式，對SSCPS不利，因為肥水已入別人田。

不過，我都參加過其他interviews，家長和小朋友都只得5至10分鐘時間，太過濫竽充數啊。Interviews後都不知道成功機會有多少。結果，由2nd interview到出結果，又是一個等字，或再加一個估字。SSCPS的等和其他學校的等，不相伯仲。

想深一層，其實家長都有好多不同選擇，此家不成往別家。最壞打算，努力到明年8-9月罷！在12月前收到offer(s)，都不一定是最終决定。畢竟，人望高處，水往低留嘛！最重要清楚哪裡屬於小朋友的高處及家長所能付出的高處條件。

BK家長，繼續努力，不要做阿水呀！

Did anyone receive 2nd letter today?

Not sure why the school prolongs the 2nd interview process to as long as the claimed 2 months.  Common sense tells me a task should be completed as soon as possible so that other tasks can be focused  ...

Not sure why the school prolongs the 2nd interview process to as long as the claimed 2 months.  Common sense tells me a task should be completed as soon as possible so that other tasks can be focused on.  There may be other reasons overriding this "common sense", but I doubt if anyone knows this "confidential" reason. :)

Anyone received the 2nd int letter and living  in Kowloon side?

JTLAU

OH, I thought the school always had 2nd int like many other schools...

Sigh.. with the 2nd int experience I got from other school, I think I'd have to prepare for disappointment (becoz my son was especially naughty when I was present)

今年學校係歷史性第一次有 2nd int，你呢個假設性問題無得答，不如你打電話去學校問o下，問完o係BK分享，仲實際啦。
