All About GEP

Hello all,
I am new to this forum… My 9yo is taking part in this round of selection exercise… I found it hard to get her to do any preparation. She is in a neighborhood school which is 5 mins walk from our home, and doesn’t want to move because she likes her school and friends.
Although i hope she can eventually get in, it will be her decision to join if she gets selected.
Could not start this conversation with her and motivate her the right way. -

Usually the girls will get their first choice of ISO format if they pick irs or ivp. FPS may have an audition or trial of some kind? Best to check with the teacher in charge.
iso - individual study option
fps - future problem solving[/quote]
Thanks.
I was wondering earlier, why there is:
inter-varsity player, first person shooting or frame per second involved.
Hahahahha. -

Hehe, today’s GA was quite difficult? Managed to finish but any-how guessed quite a few …

Congratulations, his comments are positive! 😆 -
Is the GA2 tomorrow Math or English based?
I told my girl the wrong thing…I thought the GA today is English-based (anagrams, word brain teasers etc). She is more geared to Math domain so she found the GA1 pretty fun (in a challenging way) today – she totally got killed by the English component though (she had no idea what they were asking…I reckon she tikamed the whole paper lol). If the GA2 tomorrow is English-based Im sure she will have a bigger headache hahaa -

From what I’ve tried to ask (you know la, parents need special skills to have the kids speaking what we want to know )
Todays GA have numbers type, words type and picture type. (I think that’s what I gathered)
Not sure what’s tmr GA is going to be like. -

He seemed fine.
(Playing Nintendo now before dinner. )
Actually, I wanted to say : time management is hugely important.
1hr20mins for 57 qns.
Less than 1.5 min per qns !
