From what I understand from my DS, there is no O level student in his class, half of his class is from his former HCI SMTP class. I am not sure about other GATE classes. In a way, I agree that you have to be in HCI/NYGH programs to benefit (or gain entry) from JC's GATE/SMTP programs.I wonder how many O level students are admitted/selected to this GATE program?
From what I understand, GATE program is for the top 20% of the cohort and since SMTP students are taught in an accelerated and extended syllabus during their sec 3 & 4 which would have covered alot more than those O level students, then how can we expect these O level students to perform well in the test to be selected? Kind of like HCI students have an advantage since it is a continuous of their SMTP from high school.
I wonder how the GATE students perform for their A level. -

Nowadays, a student is assess holistically in both their academic and non-academic performance, thus, anything extra will be helpful in their scholarship applications.
I let my DS go to as many activities as possible if times permit, anyway, most of the expenses are subsidized by either the school or MOE. So he has went to 2 China immersion programs, school boarding programs, OBS overseas expeditions to Taiwan.... -
Well i understand that there will be other activists during june holidays that clash with ocip, meaning i also have to burn my trip to Melbourne
