Should have received the letter from DBS as my kid's classsmate was confirmed early last week.  Why don't you call and check the school office?!

其實有冇人會放棄DBS而等大抽獎呢？

咁請問有冇人收到rejection letter呢？

我打過電話去問，佢地話如果等到四月中都無信就代表不被取錄。

Hi Leolonglongma,

My son is also waiting for a long time already.  I am very nervous and disappointed now becuase I haven't received any news up to now.  

Do you mind tell us about the quality of your kid's classmate?  Overall average score in P6 1st term?  Any music or sports special skill?

My son has an overall average score of 89 in P6 1st term.  Is it good enough ?

你個囝讀邊間小學,89分係好好成績了,但係dbspd,英数有f2,3 程度,所以表現好重要
祝快d收信啦

H didima,

My son is studying in a quite famous primary school in Kowloon Tong.  I guess he was not (yet) selected because he don't have too outstanding performance in music or sports.  Quite a lots of his classmates with lower academic result had been accepted by DBS.  Mainly due to better performance in music/sports.  Isn't it unfair?  

Very disappointed !  I think the whole process is almost finished.  

Up to now, I still haven't received any reject letter.  Anybody has received it?  Thanks!

Hi Ivantissue,

DO you mind tell us the situation of you son?  Is he in the music, sports or academic queue?  How is his academic result?

Do you know what's the overall average mark required to be accepted in the academic queue?

The acceptance rule is clearly stated by DBS in the parent information session that the S1 space allocation portion is 1/3 for each of the sports / music / academic talented students.
Just imagine there are over 600 primary schools in Hong Kong.
If only the top student from each school is interested in DBS, the DBS has over 600 rank no. 1 students to pick for less than 30 vacancies for academic talent.


Sure DBS doesn’t consider each school, a few top primary schools may get 2~3 seats and many schools get none.
If your child is top of the grade and from a high rank school, you might get a chance.
Otherwise even 9x marks doesn’t mean much.
As long as no rejection letter is received, there is still a chance on the waiting list.  Good luck.

Hi Tsang123,

For music & sports queue, their average score can be very low (e.g. 7x).  All kinds of music skills are considerd according to the need of DBS orchestra.   Up to now, I didn't hear anybody got accepted based on pure academic result.

Do you mind tell us the average score of your son? Are you till waiting? Any music talent ?

I know a friend's son who is good at cello (he passed grade 8 with 140 something and got awards in Music Festival every year) and his academic result is quite good, but still hasn't heard anything from the school.  It means--the competition is extremely keen.

It's not 100% truth!  As I know that my kid's classmates (at least 6 boys) got the offer from DBS base on outstanding academic performance purely.  

Yes, they all playing music instrument, but they don't have much awards in such aspects (e.g. grade 8 or above, and awards in Music Festival).  They are all within the top 10 boys in primary 6 and not just the class, and they don't need to have any audition.

happy_mama_lee

actually i think the interview played an important part as well.
my son has good academic results, but for sports and music, he just has an ordinary performance, not really outstanding, but he got an offer too.

此處不留人,自有留人處
我知大拔約收10幾個sports 同music或其他方面有卓越表現嘅,其餘成績同操行,操行非常重要,再加上當天表現
唔好失望,成3000人報,收幾十,香港仲有大把好學校

我囝果班有全世界排名第1定嘅圍棋高手,有宜家計緊微積分,還有很多特異奇人異仕,不過也有平平無奇的,所有
academic好之外,好睇重操行
