      Dear parents,

      Do you have any idea if children need to attend GEP math and Olympiad math concurrently to prepare for the GEP?
      News letter say don’t prepare to avoid inflated score.

      some prepare \"double\" some more.

        I think Olympiad math training is sufficient. My son attended the Math Kangaroo Competition training at \"The Math Classroom\" and it did help him get through the first round of the GEP test.

          No particular preparation is the standard advise.

                Floating of a \"trial balloon\" by MOE and Straits Times to observe the reaction of Singaporean parents? After all, rumour has it that the Gifted Education Programme System will be scrapped in the coming years?

                    At least - get an ex gepper to reflect 20 years later.

                    Might be more convincing.

                      40 years btw. Agree with u. GEB should do a full review and report, from all involved parties’ pov. Has the GEP fulfilled its purpose?

                      And I want to raise an important qn: since prep is not encouraged (and not needed), why not just spring it as a surprise test? No need to announce the dates nor the year/age for the test mah.
