For all subject-emphasis curricula, applicants will be subjected to aptitude tests. Only pupils who exceed the allotted minimum score in the aptitude test can be accepted for the subject-emphasis curriculum. In all subject-emphases, the minimum score is 40 per cent of the maximum score possible in the aptitude test. The pupils will be selected for the curriculum in the order of their score. Apart from the aptitude test, the school may apply a complementary criterion of the pupil’s grade in their latest report card in the relevant subject(s) as determined by the school.  

Teaching in the subject-emphasis curriculum will be provided only if a minimum number of pupils are accepted. The pupils undergoing a subject-emphasis curriculum need not necessarily be organized in a separate class, so the accepted pupils can be assigned to classes as the school sees fit.
