Hi, based on what I've heard from a parent whose child sat for previous GEP selection tests, the timing for both days were similar, approximately from 9am to 1230pm. But I'm not sure if there'll be any changes for this year though. Maybe you'll want to give MOE a call to verify?

Thank u. Tat time I asked moe before on the actual timing for Nov but they couldn’t confirm.

U're welcome. There're just too many uncertainties this year due to Covid-19. With this 5-week delay for Round 2, it already seems like the entire timeline has been disrupted. I wonder if the final school posting results will be out before Christmas, otherwise the selected kids who aren't already in a GEP school will have no time left to get their new books and uniforms at all.

The timing was stated as
“22 Nov 2021, 8:15am - 23 Nov 2021, 1:00pm”
on the top of the notification of the selection exercise on PG. I’m assuming it means 0815-1pm on both days? But not sure if it will change closer to the time.

MOE somehow just need to make up for lost time.

after round 2,
there is :
marking
results announcement
talk
selection of schools
posting results

Then the admin task like:
buy sch uniform
buy P4 textbooks
arrange sch buses


MOE is VERY adventurous to set this type of timeline for parents.
I can't imagine the extra stress

i don't think the MOE telephone helpdesk have access to such info
Perhaps, asking to speak to the GE branch directly will help you get the answer, if you need it that urgently.

My son went for the 2nd round last year 2020, here was the test timing:


Tuesday:
English (9:00 am - 10.20 am)
General Ability 1 (11:05 am - 12:25 pm)

Wednesday
General Ability 2 (9:00 am - 9:55 am)
Mathematics (10:40 am - 12:30 pm)

As he was from non-GEP school so the school arranged bus to ferry all the students to the test center. The bus left at 7am, and the students were ferried back to own school by 1:30pm.

Hope that helps
