Do you know how many people applied this year? Close to 2000? How many do they accept at the end? How many will they call for 2nd interview? Have they started calling already???

Thanks. Do you know if they will call in batches, or like SPCCPS, call only for a few days and if you don't get called, it's no chance?
Can someone from BK share whether they get called??

Unexpectely, this year of applicants score unexpected hugh numbers. Finally they only accept 99 students, normally half boys and half girls.

I agree with wootaitai. In general, local schools' students have to work harder....not only those 3 schools mentioned here. I have friends' kids in Sacred Heart, St. Joseph and LS, they all study really hard.
I personally know friends from SPCCPS, DGS and DBS. It's no doubt that there is heavy workload, but the kids there are all happy and love their schools. They are also given opportunities and explore different areas.
I agree also that SSCPS is a great school and it's a good balance between traditional local schools and international school. I really like the campus and the use of Mandarin and English as teaching medium.
Every school has its good points and weak points. It's just depends on your kid's character. I know a kid studying in SSCPS and he loves playing sports. He plays basketball, tennis and track and fields. He said because the workload is not that heavy, he can have more time to practice. So it's a suitable school for him. I don't doubt the fact that when it comes to applying for P1, all those 4 schools mentioned here are top choices.
