Also agree that no need to give pressure to our lovely kid. No need to tell them they fail at the interview. Everytime after interview I will give him a hug and buy him snacks. So he enjoys the process very much. Only we are the one who face the pressure. I hate those parents who always blame on their kids's bad performance in interview etc. It's already very brave for a 5 yr kid to face strangers for hours.
Don't feel sad. It's very true that 柳暗花明有一村. My daughter only got to our dream school in the very last round of lucky draw last year. So, there's always hope !
I belong to catagories c and d also but my son also failed. I already knew my son would fail when he told me the principle asked him to tell her a story. Hy son just said, 'I don't know how to tell stories.' Story telling is his weakest.
The mosting frustrating of all was that the principle said if the boy didn't greet during the interview, his parent must have failed to teach his child that in their daily life. Such preconception is totally not fair to parents:-x . As the boy knows he is being interviewed, he surely is nervous and may therefore forget to greet. After all, I am sure most of the parents' children must have at least one bad habit or two. Whatever you say and no matter how many times you say, your child just cannot get rid of the bad habit.
